TIFF Style Guide Sponsored by Yorkdale: how to work French elegance à la Marion Cotillard

We’re itching to see what Marion Cotillard wears when she hits Toronto next week to fête her new crime drama Blood Ties—t he French goddess has an eye for ultra-feminine red carpet looks that both earn plaudits from the fashion set and turn men into quivering piles of mush. It helps, of course, that Cotillard’s an ambassador for Christian Dior, which gives her wide access to haute couture pieces. You don’t necessarily need designer freebies to recreate her look, though. We teamed up with Yorkdale Shopping Centre to prove it. Here, a primer on pulling off the actress’s demure brand of Parisian glamour.
