Brigitte Macron Matches Blue Pumps to Pantsuit to Vote in Second Round of French Elections

Brigitte Macron left the polls on July 7 in Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, France wearing blue from head-to-toe. Dressed in one of France’s patriotic colors, the wife of French president Emmanuel Macron was seen leaving the voting station with her husband wearing a monochrome pantsuit and shiny matching pumps.

The first round of legislative elections took place in France on June 30, with the second round held on July 7. For the important occasion upholding French democracy, Brigitte Macron wore a stately pantsuit in a shade of cobalt blue. Over a V-neck button down shirt, she wore a fitted blazer which cinched at the waist and was fastened with a single button. Her pants were tapered and featured a crease down the center of each leg.

Adding a hint of shine to the ensemble and contrasting the material of her pantsuit, Brigitte Macron opted for a pair of blue leather pumps; they were a similar hue to her outfit but bordered closer to navy. They featured a classic pump silhouette involving a pointed toe and tall heel. A favorite style of hers, the shoes appeared to be very similar — if not the same — to a pair she wore at a state dinner in September 2023 and to vote in 2022 for the presidential primary in France.

The traditional pump is often favored among women in the political world, with Jill Biden slipping on pumps ranging from a suede option to a sparkling pair.

Brigitte Macron was seen alongside Emmanuel Macron, who also exercised his right to vote on July 7. All 577 seats in the country’s national assembly were up for election; no party emerged with a majority. The left-wing party New Popular Front finished with the most seats while Macron’s centrist coalition came in second and the far-right party National Rally is in third.
