The glamour of Parisian life has returned to our screens as the fifth season of the hit Netflix series, Emily in Paris, lands with a fresh wave of fashion and interior inspiration. While fans are gripped by the romantic and professional twists facing Lily Collins's Emily Cooper, the show's impeccable style continues to steal the spotlight, featuring covetable handbags, chic outfits, and elegant home decor.
Spotlight on Statement Accessories
From the very first episode, the accessories make a powerful statement. Viewers spotted Princess Jane, played by Minnie Driver, carrying a stunning blue snakeskin bag. While the original designer version may be prohibitively expensive, a fantastic high-street alternative has been identified. The Croc Vegan Leather Crossbody Bag from Belissh, available via Debenhams online, offers a similar aesthetic for a fraction of the price. Originally £49, it is now on sale for just £19.50.
Later, Jane is seen with a luxurious burgundy croc-skin handbag. Fashion followers can achieve the same look with the Accessorize Red Faux Croc Skin Patent Tote Bag, which is available for £35 from Next. Another character, Antonia Muratori (Anna Galiena), rocks a bright orange clutch in episode one. A strikingly similar JFY Top Handle Pu Clutch Bag can be found at Debenhams for £18.20, down from £28.
Recreating Emily's Iconic Wardrobe
Emily Cooper's wardrobe remains a central source of style goals. One standout piece is a black and white striped shirt she wears, for which a great match has been found. The M&S Satin Striped Collared Button Through Shirt is a near-perfect duplicate and costs only £30, with sizes 6 to 18 available.
For those dreaming of Emily's cute gingham dress, Net-A-Porter offers the La Ligne Gingham silk midi dress. This piece has been reduced from £380 to £190, with all sizes currently in stock. Her floral bandeau look is also achievable thanks to the Abstract Floral Bandeau Felicity Midi Dress from Nobody's Child, priced at £99 and available in sizes 4 to 18.
Another shirt, a green and white striped style, can be replicated with the French Connection Alexis Stripe Angled Yoke Shirt, now £35 at John Lewis. Emily's powerful red blazer moment is mirrored by the M&S Crepe Tailored Double Breasted Blazer for £75.
From Robes to Vases: Stealing the Show's Aesthetic
The style extends beyond clothing. Character Luc, played by Bruno Gouery, sports several luxurious robes. A great alternative is the Joules Striped Dressing Gown in navy mix, available at Marks and Spencer for £70. For a cosier option, the Just Essentials Printed Fleece Dressing Gown is on offer for just £21.
The show's impeccable interior design has also drawn attention, particularly a stylish vase seen on set. A very similar Hand Painted Striped Stoneware Vase can be purchased from John Lewis for a wallet-friendly £16.
With all five seasons, comprising 50 episodes, now available for streaming, Emily in Paris continues to be a treasure trove of style inspiration. Thanks to these savvy high-street finds, fans can embrace the Parisian chic aesthetic without the designer price tag.
