Even the Shake it Up cast had some style moments. This show's fashion is tragic. I don't watch the show, but I have seen the outfits. Yikes. The only thing she wore that I like and have on my Pinterest is the pink and black poodle blazer. That's it.
I could not believe how bad the clothes were. The whitewashing of Paris is exactly what I expected from this show. Look at "Sex and the City" or white people's "Friends". BTW, most Americans do not travel abroad. They have NO idea about other countries and probably just don't care.
her style and the entire show is American girl “going abroad” I cringed so hard, there was no element of satire or self-awareness. They literally thought this was high fashion and taste
I feel like her outfits are what I mean when I say “I have nice clothes, but not nice outfits.” Having cute tops, cute shoes, and cute shirts but nothing cohesive.
Same tho, watching this review makes me feel so called out, I know I have zero fashion sense -and my mom’s Brazilian so I tend to just have COLOR with no internal logic 😂
@@oliviaoconnor2201 but Emily in the show is literally works for a fashion company so its expected of her to have good taste.besides imagine that stylists who are highly paid styled the character and still it turned out so bad.
@@riddhimagupta8924 I mean, in Chicago she worked in marketing selling like, medicine and stuff. So 🤷🏻♀️ going into the show your expectations can’t be based on her then working for luxury brands, that’s the whole point, she ISN’T a luxury girl (ignore all the Chanel, she’s trying to be luxury) to me, looking at the stylist for the show’s past experience and fashion, it does seem like she dressed Emily badly purposefully -look at how all the French characters are dressed! Theater/movies and tv dress characters not based on what’s best for the viewer but to help build character and give you a better idea of the character. If she dressed fashionably it wouldn’t make sense!
@@oliviaoconnor2201 yesss didn't think of it that way makes sense. Although then they could have dressed her uk in more normal stuff because the beret and boots were over the top to an extent
Gossip Girl was amazing fashion wise. You could tell the difference between Blair and Serena's personalities just by their clothes. But let's be real, Blair was the true fashionista
I know .. a series with that type of intricacy to fashion will probably not come back. When will people realise that details and quality goes over producing the most episodes haha
i understand u saying that blair was the fashionista, but serena as the it girl was always keeping up w trends and being a hit to the fashion industry; blair just had a more classical style
“The mystery of whether or not Emily is actually paying her rent, or becoming a Chanel hoarder continues and grows deeper... it’s confusing” I’m honestly living for this roast 🤣🙌🏼
Didn't she mention to that old fashion designer that the Eiffel tower charm is among the only smalls things that she can afford to feel the luxury. 😂😂😂 The whole show is shit, one girl is so talented and can solve any problem. Who is she? "Dora the fckng explorer"
Imagine a show happening in New York, where everybody is white (apart from like 2 poc characters just to be save) and walks only in Chanel or other haute couture clothes daily and then there is this tourist from France who thinks that it’s stupid that not everybody can speak French and everybody thinks that they are quirky enough to stop their lives and entertain them and there are these scenes like singing Sweet Home Alabama in the middle of the Central Park and everybody stops because it’s American song and it just makes them close to tears and yeah, that’s how it feels to watch Emily in Paris from the European perspective. Paris is in the top 5 most diverse cities in the world and yet the show whitewashes it extremely.
I completely agree but as a Muslim American, witnessing the policies being put in place in France, policies which are basically erasing those diverse identities you mentioned... like forcing Muslim women to take off their headscarves in public spaces, I’m just going to say it but like goodness gracious, France has a serious xenophobia and bigotry problem against other marginalized groups... you can make the argument “so does America..” but to make actual policies which basically attempts to erase marginalized identities and culture for the sake of “assimilation” is a whole bunch of bull and directly violates human rights. France is trash. There I said it. Oh, and so is America.
Sarah T. I get what you’re saying but that law was actually never put in place. It was proposed but never passed which is equally as concerning but that kind of law would come with resistance. As a French person I completely agree with you
@@saneelat.7684 this is so true. france being one of the most diverse countries in the world doesn't change that it's also one of the most racist. i feel horrible for what POC go through over there :/
@@MI-sn6mz Most people in Paris don't where stiletto heels... Unless you have an event to go to and just walk from your car to the building. Not on a day to day life when you're walking around the city. Not with the uneven paving stones everywhere.
I feel like the outfits fit her character tbh. It becomes clear throughout the show that she doesn’t belong in Paris and that she’s out of place there. She also clearly thinks that she (/the US) is standard for everything and doesn’t even try to fit in. It’s kind of a funny coincidence that the audience reacted to her outfits the same way they reacted to her, even though the stylist probably didn’t intentionally do that. The reactions of the other characters to her fashion choices speak for themselves. The show is still entertaining though.
I haven't watched the show so I could be totally wrong, but if the other characters don't approve her style either, it's because the choice of the hideous outfits and styling was intentional.
I think the terrible outfits were very much deliberate. Even if they were not, they certainly work that way. Doesn't she in general look the worst when she's trying super hard?
I actually screamed when the designer called her "Basic", like yeah, she's pretty basic and looks like a forever 21 model, not in a good way, her style is so comercial
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Perfect comparison. She dressed like how zendaya and bella's characters wore those mish-mash of like 50 different colours and prints in a single outfit. A little bit of an over-exaggerated statement, but you understand the intent is to say they dress with outfits that have far too much going on to look flattering.
How now I want him to review Disney channel original movies fashion. Like Build a Better Boy. They screw my girl China Anne McClain over. The main girls are geeks so they give them both the stereotypical hipster nerd glasses.
My theory is that Emily is actually from a highly affluent family and that's the only reason she's gotten the places she is. It explains why she doesn't understand consequences and why she has so much stuff
@@andreakoeries7230 But also she shopped in what should be one of the most expensive outlets in Ameriica, Winettka. She uses it to show she's poor. So either she's poor by some frigging weird rich standards compared to someone disgustingly rich or the creators of the show were just ignorant.
@@Alex-wl9xw maybe her being like “I could only afford an accessory” is just showing that she didn’t have unlimited spending money as a kid/tween, not that her family didn’t have money.
E robinson! ha. u are a "victim". a victim "assumes" successful people (fictional or not) became who they are due to "family relations, race, or luck" versus hard work. in the movie, she has so much "stuff" because the mutlinational corporation she works for gave her a relocation bonus (which could be six figures or more). oh and one more thing. i love people "like you".....(don't worry sweetie....that statement isn't racial.......only in your mind)........oh and one more thing....i love people "like you"...and by that i mean the world's "victims". i am a victim b/c i am white and i don't get preferencial treatment like the blacks. or...i am a victim b/c i am black and the whites are keeping me down. or....i am a victim b/c .....(insert reason here). in ten years you will be no better off financially and you will blame "those people. hahahahaha. v.i.c.t.i.m. you should put that on a shirt and sell it. you 'll make shit ton of money.
"Her boyfriend tells her he won't be coming to Paris, probabily because he doesn't want to be seen in public with her with outfit like that" Im crying you're so funny P.S. I've always thought she would have a style evolution during the show, but boy I was wrong
They’re probably going to save that for later seasons. Have a purposefully tacky and stereotypically Paris style, to something more refined and elegant as she “fits in”
It's like she throws together random clothing items, then puts on a Chanel accessory to make it "fashion". Girl no. I know people that can style clothing and outfits from Wal-Mart better than this. Just because you can afford it doesn't mean you have taste or style. The only thing I liked were the coats by themselves (the leather jackets and pink coat), but everything else the way it was put together? Just hideous. Her boss on the other hand? Dressed impeccably.
When I saw her in that Eiffel Tower top, I thought the series was going to go into a Devil's Wear Prada sort of plot where the main character gets a makeover. I realized halfway through the series that the designer was just shitting on Emily. lol
As a French girl, I'm laughing so much about your critic and amazing accent. Knowing our rich folks, no one would let Emily come to parties like that anyway. (And jeez can't she let go the belts?)
What I really don’t get is that all the high class French men in the show seems to like her that much. I refuse to believe that any French men would find those outfit choices sexy. You really want me to believe that a French fashion brand heir would fall in love with someone wearing those hideous dresses ?
@@HopeeInk French men are into attractive women. She is hot, they will be around her - only other women and gay men care about a woman wearing questionable outfits...
the most unrealistic part of the show is emily leaving her bag unattended on a chair while eating and having her bag behind her and not worry about or getting mugged
@@kikikiller1153 I live in a small city in Quebec and you can leave your car open all night without worry. Not to say theft doesn't happen here but it's not as intense as it is in metropoles, especially European metropoles. However, in my home country, Romania, thieves snatch your earrings from you head.
Did anyone else get the vibe that her outfits would have made more sense in like the early 2010s (I'm thinking Carrie Diaries) Also the multiple Chanel bags might be a nod to the numerous Birkin bags and Manolo Blahniks from sex in the city- Chanel might be trying to use this show as a way to regain a younger consumer base
While I see your point, I feel like a vast majority of us "younger consumer base" can't even afford to look at Chanel. Don't get me wrong I do appreciate it and see it as a future goal but sooo out of reach for the majority with the growing economic climate of a dissapearing middle class.
What’s wrong with color? So now the “trend” is nudes, neutrals and fucking boring, let’s all do that until color is on trend again and trash neutrals when the kardashians say so then....
@@nikibineri3675 true, but she is american, so that's okay. And I mean, it's just a generality, a lot of French people enjoy more flashy "American" make up
@@m.b.8521 it's not, Colours are fun! But if they wanted to make her look "Paris - fashion", they should have been a lot less all over the place with the colours in Emily's outfits. I didn't mean she shouldn't wear any, but every outfit should have one, maybe two strong colors, more of a multiples tones of a same colour-palet rather than the whole color wheel, you know?
thank god you spoke up about these crimes against fashion. everyone over social media is obSESSED with these looks and i’m like...... am i missing something?
@@laurabelacqua9064 yes, sadly. i've seen a couple of post on twitter of people praising the clothes in this show and it has like thousand of likes and that makes me lose faith in humanity once again
It was so bad on so many levels. Fashion for a character should always represent what the character stands for and who the character is. This is why the outfits in e.g. Clueless made sense - they were rich teenagers but naive to the outside world. I feel like with Emily in Paris they tried the 'sex and the City' or 'Dynasty' iconic outfits that shaped a generation route, but the failed to consider important things: 1. Emily is not rich, at least we have no reason to believe she is. The characters in Dynasty were SUPER rich, so it made sense to have new outfits for every occasion and wearing brands all the time etc. 2. We should belive that Emily has over-the-top fashion but in a charming way. This is problematic on many levels, because for one, she is not the character to be over the top; two, she is not charming, she is annyoing at best and three, it just makes it look like she is (color) blind. 3. All the other characters telling her that her fashion is just whack should have been seen as: 'They are just not open minded to the american way!' But with what she was actually wearing, they were just right.
@@nerdanalog1707 exactly, on public transport in Berlin I recognize most US American tourists immediately because they are the only ones wearing flip flops or work out clothes lol
I actually really hate Emily in Paris because the whole show just follows an arrogant, snobby, rude protagonist who shows no character development whatsoever. And her fashion sense is a fever dream, at best. No shade tho
Hey Luke - would you ever do some sort of review on the clothes and impact on fashion of Sex and the City? Would give you a show to binge, and it would be really interesting to hear your take looming back retroactively on how the show influenced a lot of the things we’ve seen recently (the resurgence of the saddle bag, or the baguette, etc.)
I was so annoyed with Emily just being a stereotypical clueless American and being like the most ignorant person about how culture difference works, I hadn’t even the energy to notice she is dressed terribly!
Haha right, and she goes on to make friends with most of her colleages and random women from the street, meets loads of guys without speaking french even once and still proceeds to think life in paris is so hard 😄
@@femkepouliart8096 I lived in Denmark and dated a Dane, a country known for its English proficiency and even there I wouldn’t dare insist or insinuate people speak English for me. My BF non English speaking grandmother was caught alone with me at one point and she spoke English for the first time in 50 years, to ask if I want more coffee. It was gut wrenching, you actively work to avoid those situations but Emily just seems happy out to have the entire country adapt for her. I also worked in a marketing firm, though it was in English, there was mega cultural differences, I brushed up on Danish work place etiquette way before hand. Emily comes in and SHOUTS.
She is beautiful, but I think her style isn’t really accurate. I mean, her clothes aren’t hideous like Emily’s, of course, but I feel like she is a projection of what Americans think is classy, instead of a actual representation of the “chic français”. It looks like she puts too much effort into her outfits, and she is always so dressed up... Idk, she doesn’t have the allure, no matter how hard they try, she is stylish but not in a French way, she looks more like she’s from Manhattan, for example. To be honest, the whole vibe is like that, even if it takes place in Paris, it screams “America” so hard! the outfits, the interiors... you feel like you are watching Gossip Girl or some crap like that haha
@@user-kj6vt4pz3b ok that is fair, i am not french and i dont know how actual bussiness women in france dress. But what i like is the fact that just because she may be older, her dresses show her body and her sexuality and her confidence.
@@user-ox3wr6uz1q That's what I was thinking. I'm the kind that thinks that style is a reflection of how one is and feels on the inside, so when I see someone dressing loudly, messily and trying too hard, I think they're like that when they're talking, so I feel like I should get away from them, much less flirt with them
Let's be honest, we asked, because they're mostly crap. I honestly didn't like the show in general because it was very AMERICAN. Everything was ver americanized or american centric. It was very cringy in general.
yea, i immigrated from France, and it was awful, people take these fun lil stereotypes to heart and treated me like it (and still do)? it’s meant to be lighthearted but it just adds to misinterpretations & images of ANY non-American that makes dealing with it hell
As a French person who doesn't particularly likes their country and moved away for a reason, this show was France viewed by America. That wasn't France, or even Paris to be completely honest (yes the location is Paris but the representation of the people and culture isn't).
Typical Parisians usually where navy, grey, black, or white. The vibe is conservative but sleek. The fashion on the show was colourful and vibrant, but not very true to life.
@@HopeeInk that’s true. In my experience, when the French do spend $$$ they’re more likely to buy from a brand like Acne rather than Chanel or Dior. I actually liked some of Sylvie’s looks in the show
To me, the outfits make perfect sense with the character. She looks like an over-enthusiastic American girl who's desperately trying to fit in and doesn't quite get the French woman chic aesthetic. The fact that she's sporting a bunch of stuff she shouldn't be able to afford seems like a standard practice in movies and series tbh.
Thank God! In my opiniom the costume designer made an amazing job, her outfits are perfect for her! I don't know why people don't get it, considering that even one of the characters (Pierre Caudault) calls her "basic"!
What is sad about it if you read the producers/director comments about it and how they were proud of sometimes lending her personal clothes that in their opinion were super chic ( like that dumb mcm bag) you will understand how horrifying this show fashion is... 😞😞😞😞 they actually thought they are being chick and eccentric! The fact that she “ shops “ for Chanel etc all through the show proves it ... they thought they made her chick.... I wonder who are those people and why they have those jobs 😞😞😞😞
but it's still way too ugly. everybody gets the irony, it is the point of the show. but like it's also a show about fashion so they could've made her outfits tolerable XD
Some of her outfits were really cute, but some were a little weird. I think her prettiness made me think the fashion looked good, but if I wore those outfits I would look dumb af.
It’s the classic haute law mode question: is it fashion, or is she skinny? I think it’s been super helpful that she’s skinny and it makes clothes look high fashion.
I think she tried to go for the Carrie Bradshaw over the top / over accessorizing but it was just tooo much. Too many prints, too many bizarre combinations - even if you look at Emily’s purses, she often had a printed scarf wrapped around the handle or some sort of a keychain as if she didn’t have enough going on!
I believe everyone’s hating a lot Emily’s outfits. But it’s all on purpose. It’s a great criticism on Americans take in “fashion” and the current “blogger” “influencer” situation. Its an American girl in Paris trying to fit in the American way. With no taste at all and wearing everything basic Instagram “models” wear these days.
american creative loud aesthetic doesn't need to be something bad. Parisian chic maybe is elegant but can be very boring. The whole show is firtly exxagerated stereotypes in every aspect.
@ⵍⵎⵖⵔⵉⴱ What do you think the show got wrong the most? I am really curious and I'd love to visit france once. And are there many black people in france? I genuinly don't know :)
@@alenciaga21 Paris is very diverse, a huge chunk of the population is Afro-french people (black people but also north africans who come from arabic speaking countries)
I feel like they threw in the Chanel bags because they knew that would be recognizable to most of the audience. As if the audience will think “ oh she has a Chanel bag, she must be high fashion”
I think there's nothing to say about sylvie's style. I mean yes, she is classy, but also extrimely boring. She only wears tight black dresses with black shoes and some kind of gold jewelry! I don't want to be rude or anything, I also like her style, but it's too safe.
@@istilldontknowmyname7324 yes i get it.i found her safe too but i think it reflected her character perfectly.classy and subtle, the reason i liked it is because i think of fashion as a way of expressing your inner character and in my opinion sylvie did that. and some of looks were actually decent
@@alaleh7899 I like your teory, and I think I agree. Now that you make me think about that, she might have a more classic (and classy), conservative and safe style because that is also her personality. For exemple she wants to keep things in the office her way, the old traditional way (she doesn't like social media and Emily, a new worker that wants to make changes). She likes to play safe, she doesn't like experimenting with clothes or with the way she runs the indistry. (Even when the famous stylist comes up with new era clothes she is initially horryfield) .
@@istilldontknowmyname7324 exactly. and i think this is whats wrong with emily, it's like she went to a store and bought everything she saw. she doesn't have a signature style or look or even an item. for example carry in sex and the city was dramatic and her cloth definitley showed that, blair waldorf from gossip girl was more romantic dreamed of marrying a prince and it showed, even emily in the devil wears prada painted her nails blue,wore green eyeshadows and shoulder pads. we all have styles or some significant item that screams US but this emily just wanders around with tacky color full cloths and that's it.
I don't have any plans to watch this show, however from what I see from these outfits... does this show takes place on like, 2012-2013? Because I can totally feel my inner tumblr-loving, pinterest-obssesed, inner teenager loving these... But on 2020? No girl
I feel like she dresses like a Disney Chanel star, bight colors, clashing patterns and weird shoes. And I had the same thoughts about her countless chanel items!
It’s like everyone commenting on this video has no idea what the job description of a costume designer is. There’s a difference between a stylist and Costume Designer.
How do I know this? well I’ve worked under the best in the business. This show as a whole was the bigger issue. Also props department usually does bags. But I bet Patricia did the bags in this show… Just a guess I have no idea.
@@itsamodernmess That’s a really good point!! I am no expert and could really only guess about the difference, however, that said, my biggest problem wasn’t that the clothes were bad, it was that they didn’t really change at all through the show? Like, generally shows like this have the clothes progress with the character to help show their development-whatever that may be. Emily didn’t really show any development, though...so maybe it makes sense? Also, I could be wrong about all of this & what I really mean to say is that’s a good point and I hadn’t thought about it before lmao
This show is horrible 😭😂 like she has no consequences every guy is in love with her and I hate how they make French people the bad guy like she's the American telling them they are wrong like .....👀 I forgot to add I love Lilly Collins literally she's an amazing actress but this was rough
Ugh I totally agree. It's such an unrealistic show. Literally every French guy is in love with her. The character of Emily is super annoying, tacky and loud.
very well said!!! the costume designer needs to be fired or the show needs to be cancelled lmaooo I'll never watch it but I will enjoy watching you trash it
Darren Star is the creator of both show, he doesn’t direct all of it. Only Eewwmily can make Chanel look gross. Why no one is talking about her boss. Tres chic!
I was also very triggered when I saw the tumblr crosses for the first time and she MUST rent all the designer pieces they just cut that plot point out because it makes no sense that she has that much Chanel.
IM SCREAMING THE OUTFITS WERE SO BAD AND I SCREAM EVEN MORE WHEN I SEE PEOPLE “RAVING” ABOUT THEM. I DONT EVEN THINK 12 YEAR OLD ME WOULD HAVE LIKED THESE OUTFITS.
Lily Collins is the prob here. I like her however i don't think she has that something like SJP to make the outfits work. She looks better in more plain clothes. I think her youthful appearance makes her look like an amateur or like a kid lost in mom's closet especially if she is in those busy outfits. Also, the silhouette here is repetitive...jacket, short dress and boots. And Lily's hair could have been styled differently every single time to match the look
Eh, i think it's the whole Emily character that gives it the unworthy vibes. Her character's unlikability overpowers whatever powers the gods of fashion may have spared for her wardrobe..
@@-saffie-4977 I think its a mixture of both, SJP outfits were crazy but kinda combine with her characters personality even if carrie was kinda unlikeable too, but emily has a more bratty and kinda childish personality which makes the outfits combined with her youthful look seem like its a girl who got expensive clothes for the first time and wants to wear them all at once
@@mishacreative I agree...they should hav casted an actress with more sex appeal. It would have been more believable that all these attractive French men were interested in her
Yes....I agree. SJP also had a knockout body, lily colins is thin but lacks curves and as you stated looks youthful but like a kid. Her hair and the middle part kind of got to me after a while...very plain Jane.
As a European I felt like her Fashion was purposefully screaming rich, stereotypical American with cliche Logomania obsession. - In 1 word: Moschino! - As I felt like her looks are slightly evolving I enjoyed the playing around with cliches through fashion.
Is no one else going to talk about how she ran 5 miles in 20 minutes in the first episode? That threw me so off and it was so unrealistic. I thought after that they were going to touch a bit more on her athleticism but they never did :/
It seemed more like it served the purpose of her running to not feel stress about eating pastries. But clearly it would have been more realistic if she had done that time for a 5k run. That’s what most people do that run a few times a week.
Ok. So, I play this game called "Will Luke Love It" in which I guess if you will love or hate certain outfits I see throughout my life (on TV, magazines, personal life, etc.). You gotta understand that I play this game constantly, so of course I played the ENTIRE time I watched Emily in Paris and now I get to check how correct I was! DREAMS COME TRUE. Will update with my score after I watch the video.
@@hautelemodeUpdate: Score is too dismal to disclose publicly. Knew it was game over when you made the quip about the costume designers being fans of Maria Gratzia.... oh well, I'll just have to keep watching your videos until I'm properly educated. 🤷♀️
Agree with this... she's supposed to look a little "extra"... Parisian fashion is more paired back, a lot of neutral colours, in classic styles... they don't have a lot of closet space so everything they own is supposed to be thought out and goes with everything. She's supposed to stand out as the new American... eventually, I'd like to see her fashion evolve from being extra to blend in with the French
When i first saw her outfits I legit thought the show was from 2014. Well that's embarassing - for Netflix of course:* Like, c'mon Paris Fashion is so fun and sexy so like wtf is this show even doing with clothes lol
I think the whole point is Emily is "American" and does not fit into Paris. Her outfits are clearly tacky and not chic at all. But the fact she stays true to herself (and her style) people end up liking her personality.
I think it makes people hate her personality- -rude, not even trying to learn French, entitled...🎉 “Hate “Emily in Paris” Parties wearing chic masks 😷 is trending...#
The whole show tries all the time to portray Emily as the ideal naive hard working young woman fighting against all the old stiff non modern baddies in an unbearable one-sided way (expect the one scene where Sylvie is handling the hotel staff and the US starlet). It is so nice that so many do not fall for this narrative.
okay but now what we really NEED is that vintage fashion haul you talked about like two months ago or just a review on Doris her yt channel what we used to wear or L.A. Frock Stars
This video made me realize that I’ve been holding tension in my body ever since I watched this show, which I was unable to release until I watched this beautifully merciless roast of the tragedy that was Emily’s wardrobe. Luke you have my sincerest of gratitude. Please keep up the excellent work.
Omg if Luke is doing reviews of outfits from Netflix shows I would love a review of Seo Ye Ji’s outfits from Its Okay to Not be Okay her outfits were stunning!
OMG YES!!!! This would honestly be the best, i'm only at episode 5, but i'm dreaming of that ruffled shirtdress with the brown leather corset, it's so pretty !

Gossip Girl was amazing fashion wise. You could tell the difference between Blair and Serena's personalities just by their clothes. But let's be real, Blair was the true fashionista
I know .. a series with that type of intricacy to fashion will probably not come back. When will people realise that details and quality goes over producing the most episodes haha
brace yourself for the reboot no one asked for.

i understand u saying that blair was the fashionista, but serena as the it girl was always keeping up w trends and being a hit to the fashion industry; blair just had a more classical style
An overindulgence of chanel does not equate to style or fashion. Or taste.
“The mystery of whether or not Emily is actually paying her rent, or becoming a Chanel hoarder continues and grows deeper... it’s confusing”
I’m honestly living for this roast 🤣🙌🏼

Didn't she mention to that old fashion designer that the Eiffel tower charm is among the only smalls things that she can afford to feel the luxury. 😂😂😂
The whole show is shit, one girl is so talented and can solve any problem. Who is she? "Dora the fckng explorer"
why does emily dress like she's stuck in a forever 21 from 2014😭😭
It's like she went through all the clearance racks and that is what she put in her luggage
Yesss 😭💀 dead ass just commented something like this
OMG
Even Grace the American girl doll dress better than her and she only 11
her style is me in the fourth grade when i was obsessed with hot pink and effiel towers
Everything she wears looks like an outfit the rich mean girl from a 2000's Disney show would wear.
omg you said it. I was wondering where I've seen this style before.
Or gossip girl but gossip girls was set in 2000s and not 2020s ....
They would dress better
YES

I thought the styling for Emily was awful on purpose. It just makes her seem even more clueless and gullible.
it was! we can clearly see that by the fact that other characters acknowledge how bad she dresses

Imagine a show happening in New York, where everybody is white (apart from like 2 poc characters just to be save) and walks only in Chanel or other haute couture clothes daily and then there is this tourist from France who thinks that it’s stupid that not everybody can speak French and everybody thinks that they are quirky enough to stop their lives and entertain them and there are these scenes like singing Sweet Home Alabama in the middle of the Central Park and everybody stops because it’s American song and it just makes them close to tears and yeah, that’s how it feels to watch Emily in Paris from the European perspective. Paris is in the top 5 most diverse cities in the world and yet the show whitewashes it extremely.
lmaooo not sweet home alabama
I completely agree but as a Muslim American, witnessing the policies being put in place in France, policies which are basically erasing those diverse identities you mentioned... like forcing Muslim women to take off their headscarves in public spaces, I’m just going to say it but like goodness gracious, France has a serious xenophobia and bigotry problem against other marginalized groups... you can make the argument “so does America..” but to make actual policies which basically attempts to erase marginalized identities and culture for the sake of “assimilation” is a whole bunch of bull and directly violates human rights. France is trash. There I said it. Oh, and so is America.
Sarah T. I get what you’re saying but that law was actually never put in place. It was proposed but never passed which is equally as concerning but that kind of law would come with resistance. As a French person I completely agree with you
@@saneelat.7684 this is so true. france being one of the most diverse countries in the world doesn't change that it's also one of the most racist. i feel horrible for what POC go through over there :/
Law or no law, the original point is accurate. You would see more brown and black faces just walking down any Parisian street in real life.
Also, women don't walk around Paris in high heels.... they'd all fall and die on the cobblestone. That's prob the worst part about all of this...
Omg yes, every woman in the show wears stiletto heels all day every day, how? 😆
I wear heels in Paris....
@@MI-sn6mz you are alone
@@mariapazalvarado770 no. Lots of my friends wear also heels.
@@MI-sn6mz Most people in Paris don't where stiletto heels... Unless you have an event to go to and just walk from your car to the building. Not on a day to day life when you're walking around the city. Not with the uneven paving stones everywhere.
I feel like the outfits fit her character tbh. It becomes clear throughout the show that she doesn’t belong in Paris and that she’s out of place there. She also clearly thinks that she (/the US) is standard for everything and doesn’t even try to fit in. It’s kind of a funny coincidence that the audience reacted to her outfits the same way they reacted to her, even though the stylist probably didn’t intentionally do that.
The reactions of the other characters to her fashion choices speak for themselves.
The show is still entertaining though.
I haven't watched the show so I could be totally wrong, but if the other characters don't approve her style either, it's because the choice of the hideous outfits and styling was intentional.
I think the terrible outfits were very much deliberate. Even if they were not, they certainly work that way. Doesn't she in general look the worst when she's trying super hard?
I actually screamed when the designer called her "Basic", like yeah, she's pretty basic and looks like a forever 21 model, not in a good way, her style is so comercial
Except it doesn’t make sense because they’re all insanely expensive and not something her character should be able to afford?
@@naomimi11564 money can buy you clothes and bags, not good taste
She dresses like a grown up version of a character from Disney's Shake It Up LOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Perfect comparison. She dressed like how zendaya and bella's characters wore those mish-mash of like 50 different colours and prints in a single outfit. A little bit of an over-exaggerated statement, but you understand the intent is to say they dress with outfits that have far too much going on to look flattering.
How now I want him to review Disney channel original movies fashion. Like Build a Better Boy. They screw my girl China Anne McClain over. The main girls are geeks so they give them both the stereotypical hipster nerd glasses.

Two legends colliding :00
What is this, a crossover episode?
Oh my god two legends

My theory is that Emily is actually from a highly affluent family and that's the only reason she's gotten the places she is. It explains why she doesn't understand consequences and why she has so much stuff
It’s implied in the show that she’s not rich
that would make a lot of sense lmao but i think her dad is breeding dogs or sth
@@andreakoeries7230 But also she shopped in what should be one of the most expensive outlets in Ameriica, Winettka. She uses it to show she's poor. So either she's poor by some frigging weird rich standards compared to someone disgustingly rich or the creators of the show were just ignorant.
@@Alex-wl9xw maybe her being like “I could only afford an accessory” is just showing that she didn’t have unlimited spending money as a kid/tween, not that her family didn’t have money.
E robinson! ha. u are a "victim". a victim "assumes" successful people (fictional or not) became who they are due to "family relations, race, or luck" versus hard work. in the movie, she has so much "stuff" because the mutlinational corporation she works for gave her a relocation bonus (which could be six figures or more). oh and one more thing. i love people "like you".....(don't worry sweetie....that statement isn't racial.......only in your mind)........oh and one more thing....i love people "like you"...and by that i mean the world's "victims". i am a victim b/c i am white and i don't get preferencial treatment like the blacks. or...i am a victim b/c i am black and the whites are keeping me down. or....i am a victim b/c .....(insert reason here). in ten years you will be no better off financially and you will blame "those people. hahahahaha. v.i.c.t.i.m. you should put that on a shirt and sell it. you 'll make shit ton of money.
Anya taylor joy's wardrobe in queen's gambit is even more adequate than this and it's not even a fashion-themed series
Right! Even though it’s set in a different time? I would prefer to see her outfits in this show than Emily’s 😰🤢🤢🤢
100% AGREE!
I concur, Anya had style
It isn't "adequate" it's iconic
Ikrrrrrr
Someone on Twitter (maybe ) said that it takes real talent to make Chanel look like Fashion Nova and so Emily is * really * talented you guys 👏👏
An insult to fashion nova TBH, at least they have some cohesive sets.
HOLY SHIT 😂😂😂😂
"Her boyfriend tells her he won't be coming to Paris, probabily because he doesn't want to be seen in public with her with outfit like that"
Im crying you're so funny
P.S. I've always thought she would have a style evolution during the show, but boy I was wrong
Same, I thought the point was she had bad taste and then was going to have good taste
it actually gets worse as it progresses
They’re probably going to save that for later seasons. Have a purposefully tacky and stereotypically Paris style, to something more refined and elegant as she “fits in”
🤣🤣
The white perforated running shirt at 5:59 is a Chanel shirt 😂 who would ever wear such an expensive thing to go RUNNING
3000usd for that top nGL lolll
It's like she throws together random clothing items, then puts on a Chanel accessory to make it "fashion". Girl no. I know people that can style clothing and outfits from Wal-Mart better than this. Just because you can afford it doesn't mean you have taste or style. The only thing I liked were the coats by themselves (the leather jackets and pink coat), but everything else the way it was put together? Just hideous. Her boss on the other hand? Dressed impeccably.
It was like Clarissa Explains it All goes to Paris. Those outfits never made sense either
All ourfits are way too big on her body, the colors are awful, and she is too chic-lux for a regular working day

As a French girl, I'm laughing so much about your critic and amazing accent. Knowing our rich folks, no one would let Emily come to parties like that anyway. (And jeez can't she let go the belts?)
i agree, it was so unrealistic that she made any friends like this 💀
What I really don’t get is that all the high class French men in the show seems to like her that much. I refuse to believe that any French men would find those outfit choices sexy. You really want me to believe that a French fashion brand heir would fall in love with someone wearing those hideous dresses ?
@@HopeeInk French men are into attractive women. She is hot, they will be around her - only other women and gay men care about a woman wearing questionable outfits...
Like if she was gonna keep and use belts, could we at least get some nice looking ones and not some cheap looking thing 😩
As an American I apologize not all of us are this unfashionable and as an American we do not claim her. Who told her it was ok to wear that?
This show was kinda trashy fun, like Emily’s outfit 😂
I enjoyed the show but her outfits were trashy as fuck
Is no one gonna talk about how Emily wore a chanel shirt to go jogging?
the most unrealistic part of the show is emily leaving her bag unattended on a chair while eating and having her bag behind her and not worry about or getting mugged
Especially in Paris, c‘mon guys!

Did anyone else get the vibe that her outfits would have made more sense in like the early 2010s (I'm thinking Carrie Diaries) Also the multiple Chanel bags might be a nod to the numerous Birkin bags and Manolo Blahniks from sex in the city- Chanel might be trying to use this show as a way to regain a younger consumer base
While I see your point, I feel like a vast majority of us "younger consumer base" can't even afford to look at Chanel. Don't get me wrong I do appreciate it and see it as a future goal but sooo out of reach for the majority with the growing economic climate of a dissapearing middle class.
chile don’t do carrie diaries like that😩😩
Lol 🤣 you're theory that this show is a complex marketing ploy from BIG CHANEL makes complete sense. Exposed!
Bad idea. Chanel deserves better
Bro even Carrie Diaries was better than this
Head canon: she actually steals the bags from people who are too stunned by her fashion choices to fight back.
Oml you made me laugh for 5 mins straight 😂😭
Holy fucking shit lmao
As a French women : Emily needs more shoes, less bags and a lot less flashy colors 😂
Also less make up. That face screams American
What’s wrong with color? So now the “trend” is nudes, neutrals and fucking boring, let’s all do that until color is on trend again and trash neutrals when the kardashians say so then....
@@m.b.8521 nothing wrong. Is just that in Paris people dont wear flashy colors, nor nudes.

It's simply because they are all ringarde.
It was so bad on so many levels. Fashion for a character should always represent what the character stands for and who the character is. This is why the outfits in e.g. Clueless made sense - they were rich teenagers but naive to the outside world. I feel like with Emily in Paris they tried the 'sex and the City' or 'Dynasty' iconic outfits that shaped a generation route, but the failed to consider important things:
1. Emily is not rich, at least we have no reason to believe she is. The characters in Dynasty were SUPER rich, so it made sense to have new outfits for every occasion and wearing brands all the time etc.
2. We should belive that Emily has over-the-top fashion but in a charming way. This is problematic on many levels, because for one, she is not the character to be over the top; two, she is not charming, she is annyoing at best and three, it just makes it look like she is (color) blind.
3. All the other characters telling her that her fashion is just whack should have been seen as: 'They are just not open minded to the american way!' But with what she was actually wearing, they were just right.
Spot on ! It's even more sttiking because literally every other character was dressed way better (especially Camille and her boss)
Emily is literally every American tourist stereotype but that's ok because Her show is full of unoriginal tropes anyway.
US American tourists are much more laid back and lazy in their style.
you're right tbh, it's easy to just take it with a grain of salt when the whole show is full of it
@@nerdanalog1707 exactly, on public transport in Berlin I recognize most US American tourists immediately because they are the only ones wearing flip flops or work out clothes lol
When I saw Emily in Paris, I knew a roast was coming
My first thought after watching 10 minutes of the show 😂
anticipated!
I actually really hate Emily in Paris because the whole show just follows an arrogant, snobby, rude protagonist who shows no character development whatsoever. And her fashion sense is a fever dream, at best.
No shade tho
Hey Luke - would you ever do some sort of review on the clothes and impact on fashion of Sex and the City? Would give you a show to binge, and it would be really interesting to hear your take looming back retroactively on how the show influenced a lot of the things we’ve seen recently (the resurgence of the saddle bag, or the baguette, etc.)
PLEASE!!!! I would love for Luke to go through some of the most iconic Sex and the City looks. Even a "style" guide to each woman would be amazing.
This is such a good idea!
i even shocked that he doesnt know much about SATC. It was real fashyon shizz
ModernGurlz has done something like this already I believe, if anyone is interested her channel is really good!💕
This would require him watching the show... :-/
I was so annoyed with Emily just being a stereotypical clueless American and being like the most ignorant person about how culture difference works, I hadn’t even the energy to notice she is dressed terribly!
Haha right, and she goes on to make friends with most of her colleages and random women from the street, meets loads of guys without speaking french even once and still proceeds to think life in paris is so hard 😄
@@femkepouliart8096 I lived in Denmark and dated a Dane, a country known for its English proficiency and even there I wouldn’t dare insist or insinuate people speak English for me. My BF non English speaking grandmother was caught alone with me at one point and she spoke English for the first time in 50 years, to ask if I want more coffee. It was gut wrenching, you actively work to avoid those situations but Emily just seems happy out to have the entire country adapt for her. I also worked in a marketing firm, though it was in English, there was mega cultural differences, I brushed up on Danish work place etiquette way before hand. Emily comes in and SHOUTS.

although Emily is an atrocity, her boss IS ABSOLUTELY gorgeous and sexy and everything i want to be when im 50
Watch french show call my agent! She’s great In it and a superb show
I aspire to that
Agreed! Same!
She is beautiful, but I think her style isn’t really accurate. I mean, her clothes aren’t hideous like Emily’s, of course, but I feel like she is a projection of what Americans think is classy, instead of a actual representation of the “chic français”. It looks like she puts too much effort into her outfits, and she is always so dressed up... Idk, she doesn’t have the allure, no matter how hard they try, she is stylish but not in a French way, she looks more like she’s from Manhattan, for example. To be honest, the whole vibe is like that, even if it takes place in Paris, it screams “America” so hard! the outfits, the interiors... you feel like you are watching Gossip Girl or some crap like that haha
@@user-kj6vt4pz3b ok that is fair, i am not french and i dont know how actual bussiness women in france dress. But what i like is the fact that just because she may be older, her dresses show her body and her sexuality and her confidence.
the fact that she only got perved up by good looking men is the most unbelievable thing in the show
I too have a hard time believing that someone with her horrible sense of style could attract someone in the first place.
@@user-ox3wr6uz1q That's what I was thinking. I'm the kind that thinks that style is a reflection of how one is and feels on the inside, so when I see someone dressing loudly, messily and trying too hard, I think they're like that when they're talking, so I feel like I should get away from them, much less flirt with them
That's not what OP said. She meant that, in reality, gross guys perv on you as well -- and more often.
Let's be honest, we asked, because they're mostly crap. I honestly didn't like the show in general because it was very AMERICAN. Everything was ver americanized or american centric. It was very cringy in general.
@e- w- yeah but like they could've done it in a hilarious way and instead it was j low key offensive

yea, i immigrated from France, and it was awful, people take these fun lil stereotypes to heart and treated me like it (and still do)? it’s meant to be lighthearted but it just adds to misinterpretations & images of ANY non-American that makes dealing with it hell
As a French person who doesn't particularly likes their country and moved away for a reason, this show was France viewed by America. That wasn't France, or even Paris to be completely honest (yes the location is Paris but the representation of the people and culture isn't).
@@Totorh03 also Paris is faaaar more diverse than this show cast has been.
Typical Parisians usually where navy, grey, black, or white. The vibe is conservative but sleek. The fashion on the show was colourful and vibrant, but not very true to life.
I felt cammie embodied the typical (rich) Parisian, she reminded me a lot of friends of mine. 😂
* wear ☺️
@@HopeeInk that’s true. In my experience, when the French do spend $$$ they’re more likely to buy from a brand like Acne rather than Chanel or Dior. I actually liked some of Sylvie’s looks in the show
Her outfits are the epitome of combining different kinds of good-tasting alcohols thinking that it'll make the ultimate good tasting drink
To me, the outfits make perfect sense with the character. She looks like an over-enthusiastic American girl who's desperately trying to fit in and doesn't quite get the French woman chic aesthetic. The fact that she's sporting a bunch of stuff she shouldn't be able to afford seems like a standard practice in movies and series tbh.
I couldn't agree more, I think it's all intentional irony!
Thank God! In my opiniom the costume designer made an amazing job, her outfits are perfect for her! I don't know why people don't get it, considering that even one of the characters (Pierre Caudault) calls her "basic"!
What is sad about it if you read the producers/director comments about it and how they were proud of sometimes lending her personal clothes that in their opinion were super chic ( like that dumb mcm bag) you will understand how horrifying this show fashion is... 😞😞😞😞 they actually thought they are being chick and eccentric! The fact that she “ shops “ for Chanel etc all through the show proves it ... they thought they made her chick.... I wonder who are those people and why they have those jobs 😞😞😞😞
@@SwimSilky hahahaha no it's not. You're just being nice.
but it's still way too ugly. everybody gets the irony, it is the point of the show. but like it's also a show about fashion so they could've made her outfits tolerable XD
I was so shocked by her outfits! I literally felt like we went back to 2014 with this style!
Some of her outfits were really cute, but some were a little weird. I think her prettiness made me think the fashion looked good, but if I wore those outfits I would look dumb af.
i feel the same
Literally 😭
It’s the classic haute law mode question: is it fashion, or is she skinny? I think it’s been super helpful that she’s skinny and it makes clothes look high fashion.
Dressed by the person who did Devil wears Prada and I’m honestly so disappointed. *Is this a cry for help Patrica?*
I think she tried to go for the Carrie Bradshaw over the top / over accessorizing but it was just tooo much. Too many prints, too many bizarre combinations - even if you look at Emily’s purses, she often had a printed scarf wrapped around the handle or some sort of a keychain as if she didn’t have enough going on!
She went to that Hideous Skirt Convention...
Oh NOOOOOO! How could this show’s wardrobe for the main character go so wrong?! I LOVE that movie! 🥺 I loved Julien’s outfits tho...
But dressing Emily like she stars in SATC could have been a disaster either.
The other characters dissed her style several times
So I think it was intentional
yep
It was intentional
yea but her being clad in designer outfits doesn't make sense
The python skirt and sheer Paris printed shirt will forever haunt my dreams, where is the sense? The taste? Something??
How could anybody in her/his right state of mind unironically like this show? I mean as a guilty pleasure fine, but SERIOUSLY???
I agree, it is just a fun watch and that's all lol
it's just fun to watch the french hate emily. that's the whole show. let's pretend the rest didn't happen.
i loved this show!! it was light hearted and really fun. I watched it with my boyfriend from Paris and he loved it as well :)
I think the target audience is teenagers
@@ninalou4629 But why do they advertise it as like "sex and the city" then?
I believe everyone’s hating a lot Emily’s outfits.
But it’s all on purpose.
It’s a great criticism on Americans take in “fashion” and the current “blogger” “influencer” situation.
Its an American girl in Paris trying to fit in the American way.
With no taste at all and wearing everything basic Instagram “models” wear these days.
Most Instagram models have more taste then Emily though, these outfits date her as being early 2010s, not a 2020 influencer
Yeah I don’t think any Instagram models wear these kinds of outfits
@@Phenrex the show's idea on how you become an influencer these days is also very 2010.
I couldn't agree more, I think the stylists were trying to be ironic
american creative loud aesthetic doesn't need to be something bad. Parisian chic maybe is elegant but can be very boring. The whole show is firtly exxagerated stereotypes in every aspect.
I only hope people are not dumb enough to hate on the actress herself, cause nope... That's not HER fault.
Sadly I think there will be those people. There always are
The actress is great it’s her character there annoying when she’s acting she’s the character not herself

I feel like they threw in the Chanel bags because they knew that would be recognizable to most of the audience. As if the audience will think “ oh she has a Chanel bag, she must be high fashion”
I can see how someone with no common sense or taste could come to that conclusion.
she's just tacky, i wish you talked about sylvie's style though...i found her pretty classy
I think there's nothing to say about sylvie's style. I mean yes, she is classy, but also extrimely boring. She only wears tight black dresses with black shoes and some kind of gold jewelry!
I don't want to be rude or anything, I also like her style, but it's too safe.
@@istilldontknowmyname7324 yes i get it.i found her safe too but i think it reflected her character perfectly.classy and subtle, the reason i liked it is because i think of fashion as a way of expressing your inner character and in my opinion sylvie did that. and some of looks were actually decent
@@alaleh7899 I like your teory, and I think I agree.
Now that you make me think about that, she might have a more classic (and classy), conservative and safe style because that is also her personality. For exemple she wants to keep things in the office her way, the old traditional way (she doesn't like social media and Emily, a new worker that wants to make changes). She likes to play safe, she doesn't like experimenting with clothes or with the way she runs the indistry. (Even when the famous stylist comes up with new era clothes she is initially horryfield) .
@@istilldontknowmyname7324 exactly. and i think this is whats wrong with emily, it's like she went to a store and bought everything she saw. she doesn't have a signature style or look or even an item.
for example carry in sex and the city was dramatic and her cloth definitley showed that,
blair waldorf from gossip girl was more romantic dreamed of marrying a prince and it showed,
even emily in the devil wears prada painted her nails blue,wore green eyeshadows and shoulder pads. we all have styles or some significant item that screams US
but this emily just wanders around with tacky color full cloths and that's it.
@@istilldontknowmyname7324 i still think she looks great for her age and great timeless style!
I don't have any plans to watch this show, however from what I see from these outfits... does this show takes place on like, 2012-2013? Because I can totally feel my inner tumblr-loving, pinterest-obssesed, inner teenager loving these...
But on 2020? No girl
I can't even imagine how much I would hate this show if they had cast ANYONE ELSE as Emily.
Emily in Paris is dangerous propaganda for tacky gauche kitsch tasteless fashion. I worry that the masses will emulate.
Well, the masses are usually not where I'd want to get my style tips any way, so makes sense if they emulated it.
A simple search in youtube will show you that “the mass” has already emulate her outfits
I said the same 😂
I feel like she dresses like a Disney Chanel star, bight colors, clashing patterns and weird shoes.
And I had the same thoughts about her countless chanel items!
It’s like everyone commenting on this video has no idea what the job description of a costume designer is. There’s a difference between a stylist and Costume Designer.
How do I know this? well I’ve worked under the best in the business.
This show as a whole was the bigger issue.
Also props department usually does bags. But I bet Patricia did the bags in this show… Just a guess I have no idea.
@@itsamodernmess That’s a really good point!! I am no expert and could really only guess about the difference, however, that said, my biggest problem wasn’t that the clothes were bad, it was that they didn’t really change at all through the show? Like, generally shows like this have the clothes progress with the character to help show their development-whatever that may be. Emily didn’t really show any development, though...so maybe it makes sense? Also, I could be wrong about all of this & what I really mean to say is that’s a good point and I hadn’t thought about it before lmao
This show is horrible 😭😂 like she has no consequences every guy is in love with her and I hate how they make French people the bad guy like she's the American telling them they are wrong like .....👀 I forgot to add I love Lilly Collins literally she's an amazing actress but this was rough
Ugh I totally agree. It's such an unrealistic show. Literally every French guy is in love with her. The character of Emily is super annoying, tacky and loud.
Yes! Thank you! I just do not like this character and the outfits don't make it any better.
i see that the men are in love with her. (altho i d probabbly call it more intereste than being in love)
I’ve been waiting for this one, turn it up😌
very well said!!! the costume designer needs to be fired or the show needs to be cancelled lmaooo I'll never watch it but I will enjoy watching you trash it
Darren Star is the creator of both show, he doesn’t direct all of it. Only Eewwmily can make Chanel look gross. Why no one is talking about her boss. Tres chic!
I was also very triggered when I saw the tumblr crosses for the first time and she MUST rent all the designer pieces they just cut that plot point out because it makes no sense that she has that much Chanel.
“The gift shop at the louvre” LMAO
IM SCREAMING THE OUTFITS WERE SO BAD AND I SCREAM EVEN MORE WHEN I SEE PEOPLE “RAVING” ABOUT THEM. I DONT EVEN THINK 12 YEAR OLD ME WOULD HAVE LIKED THESE OUTFITS.
As a French person, I cried when I saw her outfits. Not a tad French-inspired. Like the whole show actually 😂
Lily Collins is the prob here. I like her however i don't think she has that something like SJP to make the outfits work. She looks better in more plain clothes. I think her youthful appearance makes her look like an amateur or like a kid lost in mom's closet especially if she is in those busy outfits. Also, the silhouette here is repetitive...jacket, short dress and boots. And Lily's hair could have been styled differently every single time to match the look
Eh, i think it's the whole Emily character that gives it the unworthy vibes. Her character's unlikability overpowers whatever powers the gods of fashion may have spared for her wardrobe..
@@-saffie-4977 I think its a mixture of both, SJP outfits were crazy but kinda combine with her characters personality even if carrie was kinda unlikeable too, but emily has a more bratty and kinda childish personality which makes the outfits combined with her youthful look seem like its a girl who got expensive clothes for the first time and wants to wear them all at once
Thank you. I like her but she was such a misfit for this character. Who casted her?
@@mishacreative I agree...they should hav casted an actress with more sex appeal. It would have been more believable that all these attractive French men were interested in her
Yes....I agree. SJP also had a knockout body, lily colins is thin but lacks curves and as you stated looks youthful but like a kid. Her hair and the middle part kind of got to me after a while...very plain Jane.
As a European I felt like her Fashion was purposefully screaming rich, stereotypical American with cliche Logomania obsession.
- In 1 word: Moschino! -
As I felt like her looks are slightly evolving I enjoyed the playing around with cliches through fashion.
"I love Emily in Paris" I don't think you do, Luke. I don't think you do.
these outfits scream "5 year old picks my outfits!"
Is no one else going to talk about how she ran 5 miles in 20 minutes in the first episode? That threw me so off and it was so unrealistic. I thought after that they were going to touch a bit more on her athleticism but they never did :/
It seemed more like it served the purpose of her running to not feel stress about eating pastries. But clearly it would have been more realistic if she had done that time for a 5k run. That’s what most people do that run a few times a week.
Saaaaaaaaame !!!!!!
Whoever the costume designer was definitely lied on their resume
Ok. So, I play this game called "Will Luke Love It" in which I guess if you will love or hate certain outfits I see throughout my life (on TV, magazines, personal life, etc.). You gotta understand that I play this game constantly, so of course I played the ENTIRE time I watched Emily in Paris and now I get to check how correct I was! DREAMS COME TRUE.
Will update with my score after I watch the video.
omg can't wait to hear the scores lolololol
So we all are living the same life, huh? 🤣
I ask myself that everyday when I'm getting dressed, the answer is always no but i wear it anyway
@@darkqhi amen to that.
@@hautelemodeUpdate: Score is too dismal to disclose publicly. Knew it was game over when you made the quip about the costume designers being fans of Maria Gratzia.... oh well, I'll just have to keep watching your videos until I'm properly educated. 🤷♀️
all of her outfits looked like she was styled to be on seventeen's cover in 2013
Omg i laughed soo much😂😂😂 when a fashion review of the show is more entertaining than the actual show 🤦♀️🤦♀️😂😂🙌
Actually, her outfit makes sense because her character is supposed to be “too much” or trying hard
Agree with this... she's supposed to look a little "extra"... Parisian fashion is more paired back, a lot of neutral colours, in classic styles... they don't have a lot of closet space so everything they own is supposed to be thought out and goes with everything. She's supposed to stand out as the new American... eventually, I'd like to see her fashion evolve from being extra to blend in with the French
i hate Emily in Paris it is so cheesy
it’s so bad i hate everything about it looool
It feals like anti french propaganda
Yess
Even the title, like...?😂
@@giulia5024 that’s what I love about it
Can you review her boss too please, She’s so elegant 👏🏼
When i first saw her outfits I legit thought the show was from 2014. Well that's embarassing - for Netflix of course:*
Like, c'mon Paris Fashion is so fun and sexy so like wtf is this show even doing with clothes lol
SAME!😭 I dead ass just commented the same thing.
This is the only way I'm willing to consume this show, so thank you
Every scene made me upset her fashion was making me cringe.
Every time I love outfits that he hates I question my entire sense of style 😭😭😭
Sameee
That’s his Schlick- and I love him for it ( I love ankle boots!😅)
Why, you do you
Maybe your aesthetic is early 2010s and that's ok
@@emmaphilo4049 because I care far too much about other peoples’ perception of me 😌✌️✨
I think the whole point is Emily is "American" and does not fit into Paris. Her outfits are clearly tacky and not chic at all. But the fact she stays true to herself (and her style) people end up liking her personality.
True. Her outfit fits well with her character.
Yeah but her personality sucks, she doesn't change or improve anything, she's just a spoiled brat
I think that’s what they’re going for. But she has a poor personality and then the show tries to make out that Paris needs to change
I think it makes people hate her personality- -rude, not even trying to learn French, entitled...🎉 “Hate “Emily in Paris” Parties wearing chic masks 😷 is trending...#
The whole show tries all the time to portray Emily as the ideal naive hard working young woman fighting against all the old stiff non modern baddies in an unbearable one-sided way (expect the one scene where Sylvie is handling the hotel staff and the US starlet). It is so nice that so many do not fall for this narrative.
Baby Luke photo montage at zac posen was everything I never knew I needed in life.
okay but now what we really NEED is that vintage fashion haul you talked about like two months ago or just a review on Doris her yt channel what we used to wear or L.A. Frock Stars
Emily's outfits feel like they mix the worst parts of Carrie Bradshaw style with early gossip girl. Overall an outdated hot mess
This video made me realize that I’ve been holding tension in my body ever since I watched this show, which I was unable to release until I watched this beautifully merciless roast of the tragedy that was Emily’s wardrobe. Luke you have my sincerest of gratitude. Please keep up the excellent work.
" it's a paris montage wear something cute" Im dead.
Omg if Luke is doing reviews of outfits from Netflix shows I would love a review of Seo Ye Ji’s outfits from Its Okay to Not be Okay her outfits were stunning!
OMG YES!!!! This would honestly be the best, i'm only at episode 5, but i'm dreaming of that ruffled shirtdress with the brown leather corset, it's so pretty !
Yassssss- i want all the clothes
Omg yesss
One of the designers of the show was actually the winner of Next in Fashion (another netflix show) and her style is AMAZING
@@danna4760 I wonder what distinguishes her style ? Is it because she is beautiful but on someone else it would look ridiculous?
