‘Emily in Paris’: Lily Collins’s best to worst looks, ranked

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you probably heard about (or watched) the latest series that has been buzzing on the internet—Emily in Paris. Starring Lily Collins, the Netflix comedy-drama—created by Darren Star and styled by Patricia Field of the iconic Sex and the City series—depicts a driven 20-something marketing executive from Chicago who moves to Paris to provide an “American perspective” to a French marketing firm.

Regardless of how you feel about the show (which has completely divided the internet), one thing we can all agree on is Lily Collins’s eye-catching fashion moments—both good and bad.

Below, we ranked all of Lily Collins’s outfits in Emily in Paris:

The good

#1

This may be an unpopular opinion, but this is our favourite look of hers this season! The combination of prints (the checks on her tweed jacket, the Dior Oblique-print on her newsboy cap, and the houndstooth motif on her co-ords) is something we can totes get behind.

#2

Although WWD called the matching print on her bucket hat and skirt a “fashion victim move”, we think it’s one of her most polished outfits—the tonal dressing was done tastefully.

Shop the Staud bag in beige here.

#3

Lovin’ the mod flair on this outfit. Très bien!

Shop the Giuseppe Zanotti boots in silver here.

#4

The red beret may be a cliché (a word you’ll be seeing a lot in this story) choice, but we’re not mad about it!

Shop the Veronica Beard shorts here.

#5

We know Emily is into colour (and print)-coordinating, but this ensemble exudes a sense of ease—a quality we struggle to find in a lot of her outfits. We wish she would’ve worn more of this silhouette in the series!

Shop the Ganni silk skirt in leopard-print here.

#6

The co-ords are an edgier and more contemporary addition to her closet, and we’re all for it.

#7

This fan-favourite ensemble is our top pick too. The embellished hair accessory is a trend we’d gladly try for the upcoming festive season.

#8

This outfit may be ringarde in Pierre Cadault’s eyes, but it’s a chic fashion moment we’ve all been yearning for.

Shop the Alice + Olivia leather jacket here.

#9

Not a fan of the bag choice, but we like the juxtaposition of the street-cool Hood By Air parka and the Dolce & Gabbana floral dress. The hot pink pumps (a favourite of hers) were a nice touch.

#10

A Gossip Girl fashion moment we can appreciate.

Shop the Burberry bucket hat in logo print here.

#11

A Victorian ruffled shirt and a cropped blazer may seem a little excessive for brunch, but Emily managed to pull it off pretty well.

The ‘meh’

#12

The cliché elements aside (the Eiffel Tower print on the Alice + Olivia shirt and the Christian Louboutin booties that are emblazoned with the word “Paris”), we actually don’t mind the print-clash on this outfit. We’ll definitely swap the bag though.

#13

Not a fan of the mini pom-pom beret, but the double mini-bag trend? We stan.

#14

The dress is cute. The bag? Not so much.

#15

An advice for Emily? Switch the floral skirt and the beret to something more pared-down, and let the Off-White floral puffer jacket shine. Less is more.

#16

The get-up will look much better with a sleek ankle-strap heels in white. Agree?

Shop the Dorateymur boots in black here.

#17

We’re not mad at this ensemble, but the colour-coordinating is excessive.

Shop the Chanel tweed flap bag here.

#18

While the OL silhouette is nothing to scream about, the Flower Rice Bag print on this Kenzo dress (that’s inspired from Peruvian culture) gives it an added interest.

Shop a similar dress from Kenzo here.

#19

A prime example of how Emily ruins a promising outfit with a bad accessory choice—a hot pink thigh-high socks worn with pumps in the same shade!

Shop the Chiara Ferragni denim skirt in light pink here.

#20

The matchy-matchy fringes on her skirt and bag is a fashion victim move.

Shop the Lacoste satin jacket here.

The bad

#21

Just when we thought she looks cute in this get-up, she added a fuchsia bucket hat and lavender hued boots to the mix. Sorry Emily, better luck next time.
