Oh to tour the City of Love, Lights, and Fashion! Where better to see the famous Parisian sights and styles than on the hit Netflix series “Emily in Paris”? Let’s catch you up on all the Season 2 hair happenings and romantic mishaps since its premiere last December - no spoilers, promise!
To give you a brief background, Emily - played by Lily Collins - is a Chicago-based marketing executive who lands her dream job in Paris. According to Odile Fourquin, the show’s hair and make-up supervisor, this season’s trends come from a mix of Parisian magnificence traits, Instagram inspos, and Old Hollywood actress vibes. Even actress Lily Collins approves, gushing about each character’s individual styles, looks, and aesthetics that have been heightened for the series.
Here are our Top 5 “Emily in Paris” outfits and hairdos. Plus - our recommendations on what you can do to get these hair inspos yourself!
1) Diamond Glam
For the Versailles fashion show, Emily was a head-turner in her red, deep v-neck, ruffled dress and stunning diamond updo. Although this hairstyle may look intricate, it can easily be replicated with tons of bobby pins, your shiniest hair accessory, and a good ol’ can of hairspray like that of Davines This is an Extra Strong Hairspray (at 20% Off) ₱ 1,036. This extra strong hairspray has a fixing power that supports the hair all day long, whilst leaving it pleasantly elastic and natural-looking.
2) Puffed With Love
At a PR event on a dreamy yacht ride, Emily donned a classic poofy hairstyle wrapped with a plain white bow along with her sweetheart neckline top with heart prints. To get the fluffy look minus all the frizz, try AVEDA Smooth Infusion™ Nourishing Styling Creme 250ml ₱ 2,100.
This will smooth and nourish your hair, help seal in moisture, and lock out frizz all day—even in intense humidity—with its conditioning cupuaçu and shea butter.
3) Side Part Ponytail
For her intimate birthday celebration, Emily matches her hot pink bow dress with a side part and a curled ponytail. For this simple yet sophisticated hairdo, make sure to prep and protect your hair first with a trusted primer such as Kérastase Resistance Ciment Thermique Blow Dry Primer 150ml ₱ 1,900. This fiber strengthening leave-in hair milk fortifies & protects hair from heat of up to 180°C, making the blow-dry two times faster all while taming the hair.
4) Scarf Secrets
On the way to St. Tropez, Emily travels in style with her box printed coat complimenting her colorful scarf and slicked back hair. To instantly look like a mysterious socialite, pair your scarf with sleek and smooth hair without a strand out of place. Try L'Oréal Huile Original Mythic Oil 100ml ₱ 1,099 - professional multi-tasking oil that breathes nourishment and shine onto the fibre without weighing hair down.
5) Classic Windswept Hair
Of course, the doe-eyed and enthusiastic Emily we all came to love still wears her favorite beret along with windswept hair and a checkered blazer and skort combo. Wear your heart on your sleeve and your hair proudly, just like Emily with Davines This is a Sea Salt Spray: For Full-Bodied, Beachy Looks ₱ 1,080 for beachy and wavy hair enhanced with body and shine. It is water-based, formulated with moisture to prevent dryness and doesn't cause flakes.
