How Camille Razat Nailed French Girl Chic in Emily in Paris — And How You Can Too
Okay, let’s be honest, most of us started watching Emily in Paris for the drama, but stayed for Camille’s wardrobe. While Emily’s loud prints and towering hats made for great TV, it was Camille Razat’s quieter, more considered style that actually made us want to go shopping. There’s something about the way her character dresses that feels genuinely attainable, and yet every single outfit lands perfectly. That’s not an accident.

A Little About Camille Razat
For anyone who needs a quick catch-up: Camille Razat is a French actress who plays Camille, the charming champagne heiress and Emily’s complicated best friend, throughout all four seasons of the show. She was quite literally born for the role — naturally elegant, effortlessly put-together, and very, very French.
Away from the camera, Razat is a real-life ambassador for Roger Vivier, the legendary Parisian shoe house that has dressed some of the most iconic women in history. So yes, she knows a thing or two about good footwear. She’s also been refreshingly honest about the fact that the heel-heavy, perfectly tailored looks Camille wears on-screen don’t reflect how most Parisian women actually dress day to day. Cobblestones, she reminds us, are not heel-friendly. That little reality check is exactly why her style feels so relatable once you strip it back.
The Top That Ties the Look Together
Here’s the thing about Camille’s on-screen outfits — they always start with one strong, well-fitted piece at the centre. Usually something sleeveless, structured around the waist, and simple enough to let the whole look breathe. No fuss, no over-layering. Just something that fits well and sits right.
That’s exactly the energy the Avec Les Filles Scoop Neck Peplum Top from Macy’s brings to the table. It’s a sleeveless, scoop-neck style with a peplum hem that nips in at the waist and flares out just enough to be flattering without being overdone. Coming in at around 22 1⁄2 inches long, it hits at a really versatile point — long enough to wear untucked over straight trousers, but short enough to pair with a high-waisted midi skirt and look intentional about it. The shell and lining are both 100% cotton, which honestly makes a difference in how it sits and moves on the body. It’s breathable, it holds its shape, and it goes in the washing machine — which, for a piece this polished-looking, feels like a small miracle. Imported and fully lined, this cream peplum top is the kind of wardrobe addition that works harder than it looks like it should.
Shoes: What Would Camille Actually Wear?
On the show, Camille steps out in everything from platform Mary Janes to sleek biker boots. Off-screen and in real life, Razat leans into Roger Vivier’s ballet flats and kitten heels — shoes that are gorgeous but won’t ruin your afternoon on uneven pavement. For the rest of us, a pointed-toe flat in nude or black is the easiest way to channel that same energy. Clean, simple, and never trying too hard.
Accessories: One Good Piece, Not Five Average Ones
Camille’s accessory approach is something Emily could genuinely learn from. A silk scarf draped loosely around the neck, a small structured bag in tan or black, a couple of fine silver rings — that’s it. Maybe a leather jacket hanging off one shoulder if the evening calls for it. Nothing is piled on. Everything is chosen.
With a cream peplum top as your base, you really don’t need much else. Let the top do its job, pick one accessory you love, and you’re already most of the way there.
The Bigger Picture
What Camille Razat’s style in Emily in Paris actually teaches us is that looking put-together has very little to do with how much you spend or how many pieces you wear. It comes down to fit, simplicity, and knowing when to stop. The Avec Les Filles Scoop Neck Peplum Top — with its clean cotton construction, flattering peplum silhouette, and that timeless cream tone — is one of those rare peplum tops for women that genuinely gets it right.
Sometimes, one great top really is all you need.
