Emily In Paris Season 5 Has Started Filming – Here’s Where To Shop The Outfits

There's no two ways about it, Emily in Paris was not always received kindly by reviewers. And the fashion came under fire too (berets = clichéd, apparently). But the critics can eat their hats because consumers who, let's face it, hold much more power in these matters anyway, were thoroughly on board with her loud and proud style of dress from the get-go. (Psst: @emilyinparisoutfits is your go-to source for all the intel.)

They've stuck with Emily - as well as her terrifyingly chic boss, Sylvie, and her best friend, Mindy - for not one, not two but four seasons, navigating a change of city (Emily in Rome?), as well as plenty of drama in the shape of, off the top of my head, an uncomfortable moment in the shower (IYKYK).

Lily Collins teased the start of filming on her Instagram, with a vespa selfie that suggests she hasn't got back to Paris (also see the caption, 'Lights, Camera, Amore'.) As well as a seriously chic bob that just grazes her chin, Collins is wearing a typically designer outfit that mirrors last season's slightly more pared-back version of Emily. The geometric jumpsuit is a fabulous wrap-around style from the queen of print, Diane von Furstenberg, and miraculously is still available to shop on the brand's website. Accessories include a silver cuff (Marc Deloche), stacked platform sandals (out of shot but Sergio Rossi) and slouchy tote bag (Tod's T Timeless shopping bag).

In season 4, the fashion grew up. Because while the series was still dramatic and never (ever) boring, Emily's taste evolved, reflecting her home away from home but also the fact that she came into her own. Speaking at the time of the last season's release, Marylin Fitoussi, Emily in Paris's costume designer, said: 'I think she was a little bud in previous seasons, and now she's really coming into her own, asserting herself, becoming much stronger.' (One particularly spectacular display of flower power was a plunging dress and matching jacket by Balmain, which has white, yellow and punchy red petals blooming on its shoulders and skirt.)

Critics have always had two serious gripes with the show's clothes a) they're too expensive for a marketing salary and b) there's too many of them to be realistic for a petit living space in Paris (or, for that matter, Rome). To that, Fitoussi has the perfect riposte. 'Emily can't afford all the clothes on offer in the show, of course. No, her apartment can't hold all the clothes. And that’s entertainment, baby!'

When is the next series of Emily in Paris?

Filming has only just started but the show already has a ballpark release date of later this year. In Netflix's announcement, Darren Star, Emily in Paris's showrunner, said: 'From Parisian rooftops to Roman ruins, we can’t wait to share where Emily’s next chapter takes us.'

Furthermore, here's how to shop your favourite looks from the last season of Emily in Paris. De rien!

Emily

The Classic Breton

Matching the buckets of flowers with her checked blazer by Mira Mikati, Emily's wearing a striped high street tank top from Petit Bateau.

The Head-Turning Tailoring

Emily is a paid-up member of the 'wear your blazer with a bra' fan club. Qui or non?

The Add-Ons

For poolside cocktails in episode 5, Emily wore a checked co-ord with sunglasses from L.G.R.

Mindy

The LBD

Mindy is more than a match for Emily, with a sense of style that is definitely from the same 'more in more' school of thought. This Balmain LBD was one of our favourite looks from season 3 and, while it's sadly not longer available to shop, you can find a similar mini at Sandro.

Sylvie

The White Trench

Sylvie gave the classic trench coat an update last season by choosing white instead of sand.

Camille

The Statement Blazer

Camille's style was bolder in season 3 (this neon green blazer was a case in point).
