elijahfan 24,881 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Hello everyone, I'm very proud to tell you that Darren Star's brand new TV show "Emily in Paris" starring Lily Collins is going to premiere on Netflix on Oct. 2. I've had the immense privilege of working on this project last year assisting the legendary Patricia Field (of "Sex and the City" and "Devil Wears Prada" fame) in the creation of the looks. This was the project of a lifetime, and I hope you'll tune in next month to see what we've cooked up for you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUtterfield 8 40,830 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I’m excited for this show because the fashion looks amazing I hope I’m not offending you elijahfan but Darren Star doesn’t really have diversity in any of the shows he’s done which is unfortunate (in terms of the lead role). nonetheless I will be streaming!

Don't worry, he's my boss, not my friend The series does have Asian and PoC major roles tho, so hopefully this is going in the right direction.

Guest Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Everyone speaks with an american accent in this show? As a Parisian I barely meet americans everyday like that but I understand it's fictional Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maryloo 545 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 She's 31?? I swear to god I thought she was an early-mid 20 something. I'll watch this for the fashion and travel p*rn but I didn't get attached to the storyline from the trailer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstertoronto 8,749 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Wow congrats on such a cool gig! I’m obsessed with SATC and Younger and I love Paris so I was totally excited about this new show. I’ve been watching today and it’s everything I was hoping it would be. Pure escapism and everything looks gorge. Glad to see an Asian and a Black character in the main cast too! And well done on all the looks, they’re fab!

elijahfan 24,881 Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 This article made me laugh because that Audrey Hepburn picture was my phone lock screen last year, and that's basically how we got the idea of the homage look So I feel very much responsible for that one. https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2020/10/10064938/emily-in-paris-french-girl-beauty-products-secrets Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 24,881 Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 Also, a funny anecdote you guys might enjoy: in the first draft of the script, Mindy was supposed to be singing Gypsy at the drag club, but it was ultimately changed to Sia's Chandelier. I don't exactly know the reason for the change, but I assume they either wanted a more well-known tune or had a clearance issue. I also suspect La Vie en rose performance in the park was very much inspired by ASIB, as Mindy is performing it exactly like Gaga, switching from French to English at the exact same moment. Voilà!
