How Taylor Swift’s outfits have a lot in common with Emily In Paris star Lily Collins’ wardrobe

This week sees the return of two of the world’s most popular female icons as Taylor Swift plays Wembley again for her sell-out Eras tour and series four of Emily In Paris, starring Lily Collins, streams on Netflix.

Beautiful, charming and with a list of unsuitable exes as long as your arm, Taylor and Emily have much in common — including, it turns out, their enviable wardrobes…

Fluffy Coats

Emily wears this striking Missoni faux-fur from the fashion house’s upcoming collection in the new series.

She may have been one of the first to wear it, but it isn’t one of a kind — unlike the bespoke Oscar de la Renta version Taylor wore on tour.

Knee-Length Boots

When Emily strutted the streets of Paris in knee-length £1,100 Maison Skorpios boots in season two, they instantly sold out.

But it’s Taylor who owns the knee-high look — she sported these £1,900 Prada boots in New York last year.

Checked Two-Piece

Taylor wore a Vivienne Westwood tartan mini skirt and matching jacket combo when she threw a party for her tour team at London’s private member’s club Annabel’s this week.

The look instantly reminded us of Emily’s memorable outfit from the show’s very first episode — her £600 gingham shorts and jacket by Veronica Beard.

Velvet Trouser Suit

Emily looked beautiful in a tailored Balmain velvet suit in season three, selected by the show’s costume designer Marylin Fitoussi.

Was Taylor, who wore a burgundy velvet suit by Etro the year before, her inspiration?

The Beret

Emily famously loves this iconic French style, and in season two she donned a canary yellow version while Taylor wore a lemon one in her Karma video last year.

Taylor also donned a very similar hat in the video for her hit song with Brendan Urie Me!

Ruffles

Taylor was the first to wear the fussy look in 2019 when she donned this pale blue mini dress by Raisa Vanessa.

Emily, meanwhile, wrapped herself in a purple ruffled jacket from the Iris Apfel H&M collection on a trip to Provence in season three.

Dip-Hem Dress

On the Eras tour, Taylor wears a series of these soft, feminine dresses by Jessica Jones, while in season two of Emily In Paris our heroine donned a periwinkle blue number by Magali Pascal, which — dare we say it — looked a little boring for Emily.
