Tips to dress like the protagonists of 'Emily in Paris'

More information

The second season of 'Emily in Paris' has left us with a lot of outfits, which we haven't had time to assimilate yet. The series has been criticized for abusing clichés about the French and the lack of rigor when dealing with the work of advertising agencies, but in terms of fashion , it has fallen in love with those who know the most.

One of the pros of this series is that the costume designers have been able to create a personality for each character through their clothes. And that has hooked the public, since they have managed to identify with one of them due to their similarities in terms of style.

Although it is true that the outfits that appear in the series no one would wear them to go to work at the office or to sing with a group in the middle of the street, they can serve as inspiration for those days when we need to feel more glamorous and extravagant. .

Here are the tips you need to know to dress like each of their characters:

Emily

The protagonist of the series fulfills the wishes that Marylin Fitoussi , the costume designer, had for the second season: to be more "excessive and flashy". As she told in an interview for Netflix , from the first season, Fitoussi worked under the motto "too much good taste is boring".

"Emily has an extraordinary personality, and this season her wardrobe is going to be just as extraordinary," she announced before the second batch of episodes about the American girl and her life in the French capital premiered.

To dress like Emily in the second season, you must take risks when it comes to combining patterns and textures. You have to go with everything and not be afraid of the looks of others. In fact, you have to look for them.

You should also always wear very feminine, tight clothing with a preppy touch. Inspiration from great fashion muses is more than welcome -as Emily does with Audrey Hepburn in this second season-. Look for iconic looks and imitate them.

Finally, don't forget: never say no to extravagant accessories or hair decorations.

In an interview with Page Six, Patricia Field , a costume design consultant, indicates that her favorite look from season two is the one she wears when she goes on a trip to the French Riviera. In this scene, Lily Collins appears in a patterned silk coat and white mittens.

Mindy

About Emily's close friend, Mindy, we can say that she has a glam style: sexy and extravagant . To dress like her you must wear colorful and showy clothes and not fall short with transparencies. Sequins and heels cannot be missing from your looks either.

If on any occasion you find yourself with an outfit that is too simple, do as the character played by Ashley Park and add an XXL diamond necklace or giant earrings . Or both at the same time!

Camille

Parisian girls wear looks with more neutral tones. Camille usually wears minimalist clothes in white or black, but always with that French chic touch.

To dress like her you should look for clothes with a simple appearance that have an original detail or that give off sensuality in a subtle way. Like the dress in the scene where the girls party on the French Riviera.

Sylvie

The best dressed in the series is Sylvie. This has been decided by the social networks that, since the second season premiered, have not stopped repeating how elegant and sophisticated the woman played by Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu is.

Sylvie has become a style benchmark and has shown that a woman over 50 can arouse more devotion than her colleagues who are under 35. Her style is sober and sexy at the same time.

To dress like her, black must be the protagonist of your looks. Although that does not mean that you always go dressed as if you were going to a funeral. They can be garments of different cuts , with transparencies or combined with some special accessory -although in this case no XXL necklaces or extravagant headdresses-.

High-waisted, fitted midi skirts, blouses and off- the-shoulder blazers will give you a very French touch, like Sylvie's.
