Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu attends the Emily In Paris Season 4 Part 1 L.A. premiere at the Egyptian Theatre Hollywood on Aug. 14.has been hailed and hate-watched by fans and critics alike since it first streamed in 2020. In its debut season, the show was streamed by 58 million households and it inspired long-form essays in many mainstream media outlets, including The New York Timeswhich explored why and how so many love to loathe it.
both have ignited adoring features from InStyle , the L.A. Times and Vogue Australia . In other words, Sylvie’s elegance, paired with Leroy-Beaulieu’s bravura, has proven to be a powerful lure for viewers.The show’s costume designer, Marylin Fitoussi, says that the reason why Sylvie’s visual appeal is having a moment is because she based the character’s looks on her own experience with women over 50.
“Sylvie’s mood board was inspired by Katharine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich and the way they played with men’s suiting as well as Philippine’s own mother, who was a jewel designer working for Dior in the eighties,” Fitoussi says. “I think we really have paid a tribute to in a fearless way – with a kind of natural authority and a superelegance by simply mixing the masculine/feminine sensuality of Hepburn and Dietrich with personal family history. Emily’s world is more fantastic and flashier.
“Emily’s character has a lot of respect for Sylvie and you see how she begins to get inspired by her boss’s style and really starts to emulate it in Season 4,” Fitoussi says. This is evident when Emily takes on Sylvie’s masculine-feminine style in a royal blue Barbara Bui suit, which she wears to a jewellery launch. “It is cut like something out of Sylvie’s closet but it has a burst of colour and ode to her boss,” says Fitoussi.
