Emily in Paris — Next season: love, fashion & fresh drama.

If Netflix’s Emily in Paris is comfort candy, Season 5 is the rich, velvety slice that follows, louder wardrobe, wider romance and new streets to fall in love on. Netflix’s Tudum confirmed production started in Italy, and reports say filming and locations will span Rome and Paris, opening the show to fresh scenery and romantic complications.

What that means for the story

Once again bringing the charm of Lily Collins to the big screen, this time the show’s DNA is a blend of romantic soap and fashion short film. With new locations come new potentials, chance encounters in Roman piazzas, alfresco dinners that rearrange loyalties, and costume choices that read like characters. Expect Emily to keep juggling work ambition, messy love triangles and the show’s signature social-media glitter.

Fashion remains the loudest language

Emily’s outfits aren’t background; they’re a running commentary on who she is and how she wants to be seen. And with Italy in the picture, designers will likely add softer palettes, Mediterranean textures and new accessories that trend on Instagram the day episodes drop. Fashion editors will feast on every look and viewers will screenshot and shop within hours. 

Why Asia cares

The show’s global appetite means bigger streaming numbers in the region, plus tourism nods (Paris and Rome shots drive travel envy). Romance, stylistic escapism, and influencer-style storytelling make the show a natural fit for Asian audiences who love glossy dramas and fashion-first TV. Watch for cameos, new cast faces, and a trailer that will be a three-minute style lesson
