    Lily Collins Loves the ‘Happy Fashion’ in ‘Emily in Paris’ Season 2 

    But are the bucket hats back?

There is a lot to love in Emily in Paris, from the sudsy romances to the travel blog-worthy vistas. But few things in the show are more conversation-starting than its fashion. The colorful jackets! The purses! The bucket hats! It’s enough fashion fodder to power a legion of real-life Instagram accounts. While Season 1’s style cemented Emily in Paris’ status as an ensemble extravaganza, star Lily Collins reveals Season 2’s sartorial choices are more than just a delight for the eyes. This time around, Emily Cooper’s closet will give viewers a glimpse into exactly where Chicago’s spunkiest marketing exec is in her Parisian journey. 

“She stays true to who she is aesthetically as well as intentionally. But, as anyone would, [Emily] starts to adapt new trends and explore the fashion surrounding her,” Collins tells Tudum. While Emily will still celebrate the joy of mixing colors, bold prints and unexpected shapes, she has also “settled” into a slightly more European fashion perspective. That means no more bucket hats. 

“There is an elevated, slightly Parisian flare about her now, influenced by old French cinema and her new friends,” Collins continues. So, the fashion tastes of Emily and her French BFF Camille (Camille Razat) will now intersect in more ways than just their taste in men. (Looking at you, Gabriel.) 

Viewers can expect to see costume designer Patricia Field take cues from classic French fashion icons like bombshell Brigitte Bardot, alongside prior Emily in Paris muses Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn. Still, fans will recognize Emily’s unmistakably American wink in each Season 2 look. 

“I didn’t want Emily to get too chic in Season 2,” shares fashion veteran Field, who shaped the style of Sex and the City and The Devil Wears Prada. “For me, Emily being too chic or too French would have meant that she’d given in, that her personality was no longer as strong.”

“[Emily] may have accepted a certain type of Parisian code,” Field adds, “but we’re sticking to her very eclectic, very colorful style, with the prints that are absolutely everything I love and that I wear and continue to defend.” 

The main goal, as always, is sartorial glee — while remaining, in Fields’ words, “the opposite of ringarde” in Season 2. “Pat always says, ‘I just want to smile. I love happy fashion,’” Collins says. “And that's what Emily’s wardrobe is — it's happy fashion.” Très magnifique!
