Assouline Emily in Paris: The Fashion Guide

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 official book of the Emily in Paris 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, a phenomenon 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, this fashion coffee table 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. This is the complete Emily in Paris style guide for every iconic outfit.

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.
