Fans of “Emily in Paris” can expect a few things from each season of the Netflix drama: stunning French scenery, fun romantic hijinks, and of course, all the designer fashion Marketing pro Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) and her merry Parisiennes regularly wear clothes imported straight from the runway

And according to the show's costume designer, Marylin Fitoussi, there will be even more striking outfit moments in “Emily in Paris” Season 4, which airs this weekend on Netflix

(Like other streaming titles like “Bridgerton” and “Stranger Things,” the fourth season will be split into two parts: the first five episodes premiere on August 15, followed by five more on September 12)

Fitoussi, who, along with renowned stylist Patricia Field, was nominated for a 2021 Costume Designers Guild Award for Outstanding Contemporary Television for her costume work on “Emily in Paris,” was recently the inspiration behind the popular series' clothing He spoke with The Guardian not only about the inspiration, but also about viewer criticism of the exaggerated wardrobes of Emily, her boss Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu), her best friend Mindy (Ashley Park), and the rest of the cast

“Do you want to see H&M clothes on screen, jeans and hoodies for 25 bucks? Honestly, I don't see it 'This show is made for entertainment I'm a costume designer I am a costume designer Showing reality as it is is boring for everyone You don't need to see the show Just look at your neighbors and yourself”

In newly released photos from the fourth season, Emily and her collaborators can be seen in all kinds of theatrical costumes, from masked ball masks to faux fur hats, striped bodysuits to sequined gowns And Fitoussi is already well prepared for the audience's reaction to the outfits, especially those from the show's native country

“The French will either love [the outfits this season] or hate them That's the point That's the whole point We make them cry over and over and over again,” he joked

Fitoussi also quipped that he was drawn to the whimsy and wonder of fantasy, unlike French films, which “are all about reality: three bored and depressed people drinking in a room I love it when people say, 'I don't care about reality, let's make people dream'”

The high-fashion ensemble created by Fitoussi and the costume team can be seen when “Emily in Paris” Season 4 Part 1 is released on Netflix on August 15 Tom's Guide will keep you updated on the fourth season with behind-the-scenes snippets, actor insights, character descriptions, on-set photos, costume details, and more Until then, you can catch up with Emily, Gabrielle, Alfie, and the rest of their well-dressed Parisian friends via Netflix subscription
