Princess Isabelle falls in love with André, a literary historian in charge of her family's library, but he is not interested due to her grandiose manner. He seeks a woman from a more simple background. Isabelle then passes herself off as a financially-struggling younger sister Irène, who worked as a salesgirl, in order to win him over.
