“Emily In Paris” is the latest Netflix show about a woman who moves from the United States to Paris in search of work. People have pretty strong opinions about the show, with critics arguing that the way she rose in the fashion industry was unrealistic. But what we do know is that the wardrobe play on this show was absolutely incredible and will give us style inspiration for days. Here are our favorite “Emily in Paris” fashion moments that were unforgettable.
1. Ah, Emily’s look that immediately went viral. The plaid suit and beret combo is definitely one we’ll be seeing more of in the coming months. It’s as if Clueless and Parisian society had a baby. A monochrome plaid suit with shorts is paired with the ultimate pop of color in that red beret. In colder climates, you can wear tights underneath.
2. Remember this infamous white Pierre Cadault dress that Emily ended up modeling? It seems suspicious that the dress fits her perfectly, but with her petite frame, it actually makes sense. Her makeup serves as Black Swan while the outfit takes us to the bright side with White Swan vibes. Strappy heels finish off the entire look.
3. Many of us dream about what we would wear if we had the chance to dress up and go to the Paris opera, and we’d say Emily pulled off the look with ease. This semi-sheer black zig zag dress with shoulder detail was a fabulous outfit to attend this event and was totally reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn. Plus, that shiny shoe and handbag detail is everything.
4. Some of the “Emily in Paris” outfits are too overdone, but this look is sublime (and achievable) perfection! The colorful landscape scene on her silk overshirt is only buttoned at the collar, letting a simple white crop top and a gray-green snakeskin mini skirt balance the ensemble.
5. “Clueless” meets “Legally Blond” with a 60s French twist! This is a monochromatic look that is not for the faint-hearted but is very elegant. Pink knee-high socks paired with a gorgeous pink satin shoe accentuate her legs in this mini skirt. Then an oversized coat and argyle sweater add that cool, slouchy factor. It’s this kind of contemporary and vintage aesthetic that always makes us swoon.
