This isn’t the first time Macron opted for a nod to nautical with her wardrobe. In September 2023, President and First Lady Macron met with King Charles III and Queen Camilla at the Élysée Palace in Paris. Brigitte Macron wore a navy skirt suit with anchor buttons running down the front placket of her jacket for the occasion.
Such tones as white and navy or other variations on blue are a staple of Brigitte Macron’s wardrobe as France’s first lady. Earlier this month, Macron wore a light blue coat with a matching midi dress, demonstrating her proclivity for the color.
