Whether you love or hate the wardrobe department for their choices on the set of "Emily In Paris," there's no denying that star Lily Collins was well cast as the spunky expat with an affinity for loud, funky fashion. Much of Emily's wardrobe even looks as though it could have been swiped from Lily's own closet. In honor of the show's season 3 premiere on Dec. 21, 2022, Wonderwall.com rounded up all the times Lily's stepped out looking like she walked straight off the set of her series.

It's only fitting that Lily Collins channeled her on-screen alter ego for the "Emily in Paris" season 3 world premiere in the City of Light in December 2022. The brunette beauty wore a custom Saint Laurent gown with dramatic cutouts on the bodice, gorgeous draping and ruching on the skirt and twists of fabric that created a tassel-like effect. She kept her accessories to a minimum and sported her signature fringe.

At the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Beverly Hills, Lily Collins looked as though she'd stepped out of a Renaissance painting in a long Marchesa gown with asymmetrical sleeving.
