On Emily in Paris, Camille's the Real Style Star

While Emily in Paris (emphasis on the Emily) has inspired both devout fashion stans and fierce critics, Emily's Parisian pal Camille (played by Camille Razat) offers a more subtle style that we're not talking about nearly as much but certainly should be. Between the "ringarde," the printed or brightly colored, and the matchy-matchy ensembles Emily Cooper dons as an American in Paris, I've come to regard Camille's scenes, with her brand of chic dressing on display, as a kind of palate cleanser. While Emily - and Mindy, too - is a maximalist at heart, Camille reminds us that less can be more with the right tailoring, a standout cut, or the juxtaposition of two seemingly unlikely pieces paired together.

The real-life Camille agrees on that much. Describing her favorite look from the series for POPSUGAR, the actor landed on this: "The Yves St. Laurent dress that looked like a heart here [pointing to her chest] and with the huge leather jacket oversized - that's very me putting something so feminine and chic and putting something very masculine on the top of it. This look I love." The 27-year-old French actor and model seems to embody that enviable Parisian aesthetic off screen, too, though hers comes with a twist. "There [are] so many similarities, but I think my style in real life is more bizarre," she told us when we asked her to compare the style of her onscreen counterpart with her own. "I like oversized stuff all the time, you know, and I love, for example, if I wear like all-black look, I will put like crazy socks or a crazy hat with like colorful thing. So more edgy, I would say."

Her style, too, influenced the looks you'll see on the show, thanks to the collaboration between the actor and the wardrobe department: "It was such a good collaboration. Patricia Field is amazing. She's a true punk, and I love that . . . The costume designer, the French one [Marylin Fitoussi], she's great because she really listened to what I imagine. It's a real collaboration. And I love the fact that she tries - and I try, too - to put some smaller designers so they can get recognized."

The resulting looks are effortless in the way that have earned Parisian women a reputation as some of the most fashionable on the planet. Camille's outfits are the cool antidote to Emily's overdone ensembles, and there are some styling gems in each and every one. Here, we're looking at a few of the best from season two.

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...
