In France clients can't be arrested but providers yes. Not sure your definition of "prostitution has become fully legal" means.
So since the prosts can still be prosecuted, we still have many for the east, on the streets by all weather, working in awful condition for a low amount.
I live in HK now, where prostitution is fully legal (prosts won't be arrested as long as no pimp involved and one client at a time) and it's better, we don't see them in the streets and the fares are much much MUCH hire compared to France. They seem less drugged addict possibly.
It's anecdotal and there are so many differences between France and HK that I'm not sure what I'm comparing exactly :D But, more legal protection seems to provide for better conditions, not a surprise.
