Well, it wouldn't be Emily in Paris
without more bombs being dropped right away.
[light jazz music]
Tonight is the premiere for our season four part one
of Emily in Paris, and I'm very excited
to be having it in Hollywood.
It feels surreal that we started this five years ago.
[light jazz music continues]
This is mine and Lily's first like big press tour
working together.
So this is our first big premiere tonight.
Lily and I had conversations about essentially wanting
to celebrate her character,
Emily's bold fashion sense
and her use of pattern,
with Lily's evolving personal style.
That kind of led us towards looking for something
that was really like a marriage of both of those evolutions.
This season,
something that I love about Emily's wardrobe is
that we lean more into monochromatic looks,
still with the Emily twist of mixing textures, patterns
and prints, but just slightly more
tailored and monochromatic.
Tonight in true Hollywood fashion, there's a little bit
of glamour, but also a nod
to Emily's monochromatic black celebration.
I was kind of thinking about a lot
of very classic glamorous Hollywood moments
with actresses throughout the last, you know, century or so.
We found this Armani gown
that had this bold checkerboard pattern,
but we said, Okay, well what if we did a version of that
and made it monochromatic
and kind of simplified it a little bit,
but still embraced, you know, the pattern and peplum
and the silhouette of it?
Just the way that it's made is so beautiful
and all the textures of it reminded me so much of some
of the intricacies of Emily's wardrobe
and the fact that Emily was afraid of black to begin with,
but now she's embracing it was a really exciting thing
to kind of spin off of.

Oh, my team, my amazing team,
Fiona Stiles and Gregory Russell.
Fun story, they also got me ready for my wedding.
So they've been around
through so many exciting things in my life.
This is what I love about our team is that, first of all,
I never look in the mirror.
I literally never have a mirror in front of me
when they're doing me.
I always just say like, What are your ideas?
Cool, let's just play.
I don't know, there's something invigorating about having no
idea what I look like and then looking in the mirror after.
Well, the mood board is just a collection of images
that make you feel something.
So some of those were quite polished
and some were kind of rough
and I wanted it to feel a little more on the rough side.
I mean, the skin will be really beautiful.
There'll be an emphasis on the eye.
I just don't like mood boards.
I just like there to be a window for opportunity.
We have an idea,
we have the end sight in sight,
but there's also the opportunity to improv.
I mean, I think that's the reason
why we all work so well together is
that we all are like kind of have built this pattern
of doing glam.
As we're going, as I'm like seeing
how it like forms around her face and stuff,
that's when I start like adjusting.
And I also like to like improv, I guess, as Lily said.
You have to wait and see.
It's not more exciting anyways.
[group laughs]
[light music]
I think this season we pay attention
to a lot more tailoring, a lot more of a sophisticated,
mature, vulnerable side of Emily,
that I think in her clothing, it's a little less is more
and a little more European at heart.
And I think that my style has always been a little
bit more European.
I'm really excited to be working with Andrew.
This is actually our first carpet together,
so I'm really excited to be collaborating as a team,
and he has such a way about his style
that's very sophisticated with an edge,
and I think that that's where I'm at.
I'm being a bit more bold in my choices, but staying myself
and that's like a fine line to tow.
So I'm still finding it.
It's an experiment.
[light music]
We have like some really beautiful jewelry from Cartier.
I like to have a bit of like a range, a curation
and then, you know, make some decisions like
when you're in the moment.
Yeah, maybe. Yeah.
Maybe then no.
Because sometimes you can never tell which one
goes in which direction.
[Speaker] Swap them. Swap them?
[Speaker] Yeah. There you go.
Her pumps are by Manolo Blahnik
and you know, you just don't really have
to say very much about that.
It's the first time I saw myself in the mirror
all dressed up like this,
and it's been a minute for an Emily in Paris premiere,
so I feel like we're going in hot. [laughs]
[light jazz music]
Alright, so I actually have to get in the car
because I think I'm the last one
and I don't wanna be late.
But it was so great getting ready with you, Vogue.
And we'll see you later.
Thank you.
