By French Canadian women I mean those that speak French as their primary language, whether their ancestors came from Louisiana, Brittany, Algeria, Haiti or Lebanon.
.
I don't think anyone ever migrated from Louisiana to Canada. Historically it was the other way around.
Even outside Montreal in smaller cities and towns there is a difference in the way people dress, and if you go to a restaurant for Sunday brunch or Saturday night dinner you will find a higher percentage of people dressed smartly (not always suits, but at least dress pants and shoes on men for example) than elsewhere on the continent.
When it comes to Montreal, I find a lot of the anglo women there are affected by the francophone environment by osmosis and there is not a huge difference in the way they dress. Women who are seen in Montreal who dress like the bad stereotypes some have of North American women would usually be labelled as tourists by the locals (rightly or wrongly).
Similarly, with few exceptions most francophones outside Quebec don't generally dress like people in Montreal or in Quebec and it's hard to pick out Franco-Ontarians in Sudbury or Timmins from local anglos.
I find that´s interesting. Could you post eg here some photos -on how eg a typical/stereotypical French Canadian woman looks and how does an Anglo Canadian look?

Do you mean by physical features or by the way they dress?
If we are talking about clothes, here is an example.
Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs Maxime Bernier arriving at Rideau Hall (home of Canada's Governor General - basically our head of state) for an official ceremony with his girlfriend of the time, Julie Couillard.
