10 Chic ‘Emily in Paris’ Outfits Worth Copying
These sophisticated looks are surprisingly wearable.
To the delight of Emily in Paris fans everywhere, Part 2 of the show’s fourth season has finally arrived. If you haven’t yet tuned into this binge-worthy storyline, now is the perfect time to grab a buttery croissant, bundle up in a cozy couch blanket, and follow American marketing exec Emily Cooper (played by Lily Collins) as she navigates work and romance in the City of Light. And if this enthralling plot isn’t enough to entice you, we’re certain that the on-screen fashion will give you a reason to press play.
Thanks to the crafty hands of costume designer Marylin Fitoussi, high-spirited garments and maximal accessories breathe life into each episode of this romantic comedy drama series. In the first several seasons of Emily in Paris, Cooper’s closet is filled to the brim with brightly colored jackets and coats, dresses adorned with shimmering embellishments, and sky-high platform heels that elevate each of her outfits, quite literally.
While Collins’s character still flaunts her fair share of bold looks in the latest season of the show, she also showcases pieces that feel a bit more pared down in comparison to her typical getups that often convey an “I’m here to steal the spotlight” type of message. Turn on season four and you might be surprised to find Cooper dressed in streamlined leather jackets, neutral-toned mini skirts, and classic white-button down shirts.
In honor of Cooper’s wide-ranging wardrobe, we’ve put together a list of her best outfits worth recreating. Keep scrolling to channel your inner Emily by shopping similar styles that are unequivocally à la mode.
She Means Business
Want to be the best dressed in your office? Take style notes.
Emily Cooper’s interpretation of corporate fashion doesn’t involve your standard in-office uniform. Instead, the marketing exec prefers to pair a printed trench coat with an iridescent jacket and a tie-adorned button-down shirt. Oh, and in lieu of tailored trousers, she favors skin-tight pants that fall over pointy stilettos.
When in Rome
Make sure to pack this look for your next vacation abroad.
In season four of Emily in Paris, Cooper jets off to Rome and takes a slew of charming vacation outfits along for the ride. One of our favorites is this sophisticated look that deserves a prime spot in any travel capsule wardrobe. Although the gingham jacket and A-line midi skirt take center stage, it’s the detailed accessories—like the leather-trimmed raffia bag, wide-frame sunglasses, and glossy patent leather ballet flats—that pull the entire look together.
Profusion of Prints
When it comes to fashion rules, Cooper often throws them out the window.
It’s quite common to shy away from wearing multiple prints at once, but Cooper isn’t afraid to mix and match patterns (in a very vibrant way, might we add). If you want to follow suit, but you’re intimidated by the thought of a radiant color palette, consider sticking with shades that are more toned down.
LBD With a Twist
Little black dresses don’t have to be boring.
You didn’t think Emily Cooper’s version of a little black dress would be simple, did you? For the scene captured above, Marylin Fitoussi dressed Lily Collins’s character in a thigh-skimming Versace dress from the label’s Fall 2023 collection. The costume designer topped off the opulent frock with dramatic opera gloves, sheer tights, and red platform pumps.
Head Over Heels
Cooper is no stranger to taking a “more is more” approach.
While on a romantic stroll with her former love interest Alfie, Cooper took her flirtatious look to an extravagant level with a plum-colored faux fur coat and burnt orange knee-high boots plastered in florals. If there’s a lesson to be learned here, it’s that there’s no such thing as too much when it comes to date-night dressing.
Peekaboo Polka Dots
For those who say that speckled shirts aren’t in style, Cooper dares to disagree.
Another top-tier look from Cooper’s Rome getaway includes this polka dot outfit (which is wildly distracting in the best way possible). Given that this off-the-shoulder top demands attention, it’s not much of a shocker that Fitoussi chose to complete the look with plain black shorts. Keep this styling hack in mind next time you decide to slip into a statement-making shirt.
Très Trendy
Give Cooper a trend, and she’ll master it.
In a recent Emily in Paris episode, Cooper demonstrates how to properly take fall 2024’s most viral color trend for a spin. We’re talking about none other than burgundy, which she champions by way of a cinched leather jacket. Turn up the Parisian volume with a houndstooth beret and a matching mini skirt, as seen above.
Sitting Pretty
To live the life of Emily Cooper means to be dressed in designer head to toe.
Another designer look for the books—Fitoussi pulled this sophisticated number from Andrew Gn’s Fall 2021 Ready-to-Wear collection. Although this piece isn’t widely available, you can easily recreate Cooper’s outfit with a blazer embellished with gold buttons and a skirt to match. Don’t forget to throw a pair of naked shoes into the mix.
Easy Breezy
One glance at this outfit, and we can’t help but to dream about rambling along the Riviera.
Whether she’s in Paris or Provence, Cooper knows how to dress for the occasion. Apparently, a day spent strolling through lavender fields in the South of France calls for a lightweight tank top, a pair of breezy shorts, and a bright orange sleeveless cardigan. As for shoes? She’ll take a pair of heels, of course.
Retro for the Win
Travel back in time with this classic look.
Yes, this scene was shot in 2024, but it looks like it could have easily been filmed in the golden age of the ‘80s—thanks to Cooper’s velvet Balmain blazer enhanced with bulky shoulder pads. Why not go full on vintage and lean into bold 80s jewelry trends? We’ve included a couple of options below for your convenience.
