What is business attire for women in France?

Answer by  BrendaG (6111)

Conservative dress is the key here, and black is a good choice. Scarves are in and attractive shoes are a must. Knee length skirts, blazers, dress pants, nice jewelry, high heeled boots, and an occasional smile are key assets to the French career woman. French ladies are very style conscious.

The rules for women's business attire in France are roughly the same as they are here in the U.S. They just tend to incorporate less bright color and jewelry.

Skirts, pants and dresses are worn. Avoid bright colors and go simple on the jewellery. The look is conservative for the most part.

French business women commonly wear pants, skirts and dresses. The most important thing is that your clothing be well-tailored and conservative. It is best to avoid bright colors and flashy jewelry. Patterned fabrics are acceptable in dark colors. However, norms vary by industry, as they do in the United States.
