How to Bring Your Emily in Paris Style Fantasy to Life

Must read

It’s difficult not to fall in l’amour with the City of Love when watching Emily in Paris. The sights! The food! The clothes! And you can expect even more alluring style when Emily Cooper (executive producer Lily Collins) returns for Season 4, with Part 1 premiering Aug. 15. 

“I think Lily is blossoming more and more in her role as a woman and producer. So I also wanted, with her agreement of course, to make her blossom [on-screen],” costume designer Marylin Fitoussi told Netflix. “I think she was a little bud in previous seasons, and now she’s really coming into her own, asserting herself, becoming much stronger, with a style that is reinterpreting Parisian fashion codes.”

As your own passion for Emily and friends’ style takes root, you’ll likely want to make their looks your own. After all, you can expect to see Emily go from ruling the office with the perfect Kate Spade purse to dancing the night away in dazzling Aquazzura shoes. Well, those enviable pieces aren’t out of reach, thanks to Google Lens. With the technology, you can pause the moment, and use your camera to shop exactly what you see. So if Emily’s fab furry coat (seen below) or Mindy Chen’s (Ashley Park) enviable boots catch your eye, simply drop a photo of it into the lens feature on your Google app to shop the look. Suddenly, on-screen inspiration turns into your closet’s reality. (And you can even use Google Lens on the sets, too!)

And believe us, you’re going to want to make the fashion of the well-heeled series your own. We’re about to glimpse a whole new side of European style in Season 4.

“We’re getting a different textural feel of Paris,” executive producer and director Andy Fleming tells Tudum. As the series incorporates more dramatic scenes, Fitoussi and her team took a step back from Emily in Paris’ usual “sunny and flowery” aesthetics. “[We] see Paris a little gray and cozier and people in coats and dark skies. It’s just as beautiful during the winter, if not more so,” Flemming explains.

With these new seasons come a wealth of new pieces for Emily to try on. “Because we got to do fall and winter … we’re incorporating new textures, coats, and boots,” Collins told Netflix. “[With] Emily living in Paris, walking the cobblestones in a lot of heels, we wanted to transition to different shapes of heels and something a bit more comfortable, and we’ve also added many different types of layers.” Think: suits, matching sets, and even slacks. As Collins joked, “Emily’s literally wearing the pants now.”

Collins reveals that Season 4’s looks hew the closest to her own sense of style. “There was something more European-inspired in her outfits, which is something that I’m very much inspired by,” she said. “I felt like Emily had graduated fashion class and came back this year with a bit more tenacity and strength in her fashion choices, different brands that she’s choosing, and we drew in different inspirations.” 

As you start your own Emily in Paris–inspired fashion journey with Google Lens, there’s only one thing to say: Bon voyage!
