Emily wears the most adorable vintage Marc Jacobs dress at the end of season 5 episode 1. While attending Princess Jane's party, Emily pairs this dress with an orange and dark pink oversized clutch. This dress stood out as the best outfit from episode 1 because of how elegant Emily looked. This dress had two thin straps that make a v shape on the neckline, making for an edge but chic outfit.
This dress also shows part of her style evolution. Instead of going over the top (as she would in previous seasons), she paired neutrals with a fun bag. Over the course of this season, we have seen Emily's style become more mature and European, which can be seen through this outfit. Finally, with it being in the beginning of the season, it foreshadows her style evolution that can be seen through the rest of the episodes.

For Love & Lemons Set
The polka dot set that Emily wears to dinner and dancing with Marcello in season 5 episode 2 was adorable. This set showed how Emily is keeping up with the trends, because polka dots were all the rage in summer 2025. This set featured elements of Emily's old style with its ruffles, bold pattern, and ultra cropped top.
However, pairing it with the high waisted shorts and oversized jacket demonstrated how her style has had a European influence. The For Love & Lemons set was the perfect blend of her old and new styles.
Antonio Marras Midi Dress
Emily's formal wear this season was the best it has ever been. This Antonio Marras midi dress in episode 4 was so unique; it mixed textures, patterns, and silhouettes. This honestly might be her best formal dress of the season. This dress is another example of her style becoming more sophisticated.
Emily wore this dress for the Muratori influencer dinner in Solitano. Influencers are known for their flamboyant style, especially with many patterns and labels. Emily could have easily worn one of her old style outfits. With the context of this scene, it really displays how Emily is moving away from her flashy style and towards a more polished look.
Dolce and Gabbana Midi Dress
Emily's Dolce and Gabbana dress in episode 4 was one of her best office looks. This dress was adorable, with the thick plaid and yellow flower details. Also, the hemline of this dress was perfect: it was tight until the very end, where it had a ruffle detail.
It was Emily's style, with the bold print, but was a more conservative style for her workplace. This season, Emily has finally started dressing in more office wear. This look was a great example of Emily's take on office fashion.

Philosophy di Lorenzo Dress and Sebline Neck-Tie Shirt
In episode 7, Emily took a fashion risk that worked out to be great. She paired a strapless plaid mini dress with a white shirt with a built-in tie. While there were stripes and plaid paired together, the thin pinstripe on her top made the dress match. This outfit really played with form and pattern, showing how Emily can still take fashion risks while being dressed for the office.
Black Cropped Blazer with Straight Jeans and Flats
In episode 9, Emily meets her ex-boyfriend Gabriel at the train station. Unfortunately, this meeting did not lead to them getting back together. In terms of fashion, Emily's outfit was absolutely classic.
She paired a cropped black blazer with black skinny jeans (2016 is coming back into style). She also added studded flats, keeping the outfit trendy while sticking with a more quintessential Paris vibe. Moreover, her off-the-shoulder top was a great addition to this look.
This outfit being worn in the scene where she moves on from Gabriel is symbolic. It shows how she has left her old life behind, including both her style and her ex-boyfriend. Additionally, it displays the influence that Paris has had on her. She started the show as a ditsy and dependent girl, and by this scene, she became an independent and strong-willed woman.

Stine Goya White Polka Dot Crop Top and Midi Skirt
When Emily and Mindy were on the gondola in episode 10, something huge happened: Nico proposed to Mindy! While this was a major moment for the show's plot, it also was a major moment for Emily's fashion. This set was perfect for summer, with a cropped tank top and loose maxi skirt.
While the skirt was looser, it was shaped with low-waisted pleats. The larger polka dots made the outfit much more elegant.
Red Suit
Emily ended season 5 in a red suit. This look was so fun—it played with silhouettes once again with the wide-leg pants and long jacket. Her suit wrapped up this season's outfits perfectly because of how it was mature, sophisticated, and European.
The color red represents power, so the coloring of this outfit displays Emily's newfound power for being increasingly motivated towards her goals. Another aspect of this could also be that she ended the season single by choice, signifying how Emily no longer needs a man to fulfill her life.

This season has demonstrated Emily's personal growth through her outfits, with her branching away from revealing and eccentric pairings and leaning towards classic and modern looks.
But it is not just Emily that has great fashion: The other characters, such as Mindy and Sylvie, have some good looks as well, especially Sylvie's office wear. Luckily for us, the show just got renewed for its sixth season, meaning there are more great outfits ahead. Au revoir!
