Anne Hathaway Wore the Anti-Trend Outfit Every French Woman Owns

I'm not sure I've ever seen as many signature French-girl items in one non-French-girl outfit until I saw what Anne Hathaway recently wore while visiting Venice, Italy. Hathaway, who has been in town for a Bulgari event, dressed for the rainy weather earlier this week in the most low-key French-inspired outfit you'll ever see. Burberry trench coat? Check. Striped sweater? Check. Oversized sunglasses? Check. Silk neck scarf? Check. Block-heel boots? Check. See what I mean?
While a French person in a trench coat and striped sweater may seem a bit cliché, some clichés are true. I've found many people who live in France have a classic aesthetic, and Hathaway's outfit exemplifies that to a T. Her recent look is classic and versatile, an outfit that will never go out of style. Because of that, it's a good one to own. Scroll on to shop luxury and affordable versions of the look from head to toe.
