Happy Bastille Day! Celebrate With a Look Back at Our Favorite French Style Icons, From Yesterday and Today

What is it about the French? Or French women to be exact? No matter what they’re wearing–whether it be a t-shirt or a ballgown–they always manage to exude that certain…je ne sais quoi.

A ton of other well-heeled celebs are planning to tie the knot, from Kim Kardashian to Sofia Coppola to Natalie Portman to Zoe Saldana. And since it’s currently wedding season, we thought this would be a good time to speculate on what dresses those celebs might wear down the aisle. Or, at least, what we would like them to wear.
