Emily in Paris: The Fashion Guide chronicles the bold, whimsical, and unapologetically fabulous outfits of Netflix’s most stylish American, Emily Cooper, in the City of Light—not to mention those of her chic friends, lovers, and colleagues. The first o!cial book on the series is curated and authored by Marylin Fitoussi, the award-winning costume designer behind the global sensation that is the fashion of this blockbuster show—one that sparked viral conversations about Emily Cooper’s blend of vintage couture, color clashes, and prints upon prints that are nothing if not impossible-to-miss.
With a foreword by Emily in Paris creator Darren Star, who revolutionized the role of fashion in television with iconic series like Sex and the City, the book underscores how costume can drive character and story alike. As both Fitoussi and Darren Star note, the clothes in Emily in Paris are more than wardrobe—they are characters, revealing emotion and transforming perception.
A true behind-the-scenes look at one of television’s most aesthetically influential (and controversial) shows, Emily in Paris: The Fashion Guide unveils Fitoussi’s process: from original costume concepts and vintage sourcing adventures to fittings inside the show’s Paris atelier. Spotlighting Marylin’s twenty-five favorite looks (with her insights on each), the title features photos captured exclusively for Assouline, never-before-published mood boards, sketches, and insider commentary, including Marylin’s handwritten musings in the margins throughout.
Describing her work as “a manifesto for freedom” and “a refusal to follow rules,” Fitoussi embraces an exuberant, unapologetic approach—her introduction defiantly addresses the show’s critics—that marries major fashion houses with emerging designers she personally champions, from Chanel to Ludovic de Saint Sernin. For Season 4 alone, Marylin pulled more than 25,000 pieces from over 480 brands, reflecting her conviction that the art of dressing should be democratic, daring, and fun. Each look is defined by digital-age sartorial maximalism, which makes Emily in Paris so instantly recognizable.
As anticipation builds for Season 5’s December 18 premiere, Emily in Paris: The Fashion Guide stands as the ultimate glossary of the show’s evolution, a front-row seat to Darren"Star’s cultural phenomenon, and, above all, a celebration of the sheer joy of dressing up.
