Act by act
The 18 story trophies pop on their own and none can be missed. They run from Lumière’s 84.9% to The End’s 43.2%, and some pop in pairs: Esquie’s Nest and Legend (66.2%), Monoco’s Station and Expedition 33 (58.8%). What matters is what each stretch opens for the rest of the platinum.

Before or after the ending, it does not matter
The story’s biggest drop is in the final act: from Back to Lumière’s 50.1% to The End’s 43.2%. There is no need to rush, because loading your save after the final boss puts you back at the last flag before it, with the whole map available. You can close the story and clean up afterwards, or the other way round.
The only thing worth doing before the final boss is the relationships at level 7: each character’s level 3 Gradient Attack makes the fight much easier, and it also gives Chroma Proficiency.
