Una pareja artística de hermanas, Bonnie y Connie Jones, reciben una tentadora oferta para trabajar en París que finalmente aceptan. Por circunstancias de la vida, pronto se enteran que su madre y su tía un día triunfaron en la capital gala. Animadas por el éxito que ellas tuvieron antaño, deciden probar suerte, cosa que significará concentrarse en su trabajo y dejar las relaciones amorosas. Pero Connie se enamora de Charles, un amigo de su representante. ¿Pondrá este hecho en peligro su éxito en Francia? ¿O por el contrario Bonnie seguirá los pasos de su hermana?.

Millie (Julie Andrews) es una inocente chica que se traslada del campo a la ciudad en busca de marido. Pronto se convierte en la secretaria del rico y famoso Trevor Graydon, traba amistad con la dulce señorita Dorothy, se enfrenta a la tiranía de la señora Meers y se complica la vida con Jimmy, un joven vendedor de periódicos.

Dos chicas jóvenes concluyen, mientras toman el sol en bikini, que "si en este mundo todo está corrompido, estaremos corrompidas nosotras también". Así se activa el mecanismo que pone en marcha la película: una tras otra, se irán produciendo escenas inconexas en las cuáles las dos protagonistas juegan a ser malas con su entorno. Engañan a hombres maduros para comer gratuitamente, escriben y dibujan en las paredes de su casa, improvisan un baile en un cabaret para boicotear el número que está en escena, engullen y despedazan los manjares de un banquete preparado para otros. Rompiendo toda linealidad narrativa y empleando la técnica collage tanto a nivel visual como auditivo.
