The White House is inspired by a little castle of south west France, building in late 18e century.

The difficulty in answering your question is in first identifying an architectural style that is exclusively or predominantly French.

There is considerable disagreement over such things since design is connected to the social, political and economic environment and a particular style can arise in many places.

In this instance I would suggest that Art Deco best fits your question.

The term Art Deco comes from the 1925 Paris Exposition des Arts Decoratifs. The 1925 exposition itself was an outgrowth of the work of La Société des artistes décorateurs, a group of French artists, designers and architects formed at the time of the Paris World's Fair in 1900.

The French architect and designer Robert Mallet-Stevens helped promote Art Deco architecture in both Europe and the United States.

In the United States, Art Deco was the inspiration for the Chrysler Building (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Building), the Radio City Music Hall auditorium and foyer, the RCA building at Rockefeller Center and the New York Daily News building. the largest collect of Art Deco buildings in the country is at, of all places, the Texas State Fairgrounds in Dallas(http://www.nationaltrust.org/magazine/archives/arc_news/100401.htm).
