Finding Confidence and Freedom In How You Dress with Marylin Fitoussi - Emily In Paris
About this episode
Marylin Fitoussi discusses the bold fashion choices and creative freedom behind the costume design of Emily in Paris.
Emily in Paris isn't just fashion fantasy—it's a bold, maximalist manifesto for color, confidence, and dressing without rules. Costume designer Marylin Fitoussi joins Voice of Costume for a joyful, fashion-filled deep dive into the Netflix phenomenon Emily in Paris , created by Darren Star and starring Lily Collins . Marylin shares how legendary Sex and the City costume designer Patricia Field chose her for the series, opening the door to a liberating creative world where "we don't care about reality" became permission to embrace color, print, vintage, couture, maximalism, and unapologetic self-expression. Marylin discusses the evolution of Emily Cooper's style —from a young American "fish out of water" in Paris to a more mature, powerful, fashion-forward woman who absorbs French chic without losing her bold individuality. She reveals the intense fitting process with Lily Collins, including trying over 100 looks in two days , designing iconic runway moments, building custom pieces, mixing high fashion with affordable brands, young designers, niche labels, vintage treasures, statement coats, and oversized jewelry. This episode is a must-listen for fans of Emily in Paris fashion…
