Actress Lily Collins has opened up about how her role as Emily Cooper in the hit series 'Emily in Paris' has helped her rediscover her personal fashion sense. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Collins revealed that embodying the character significantly impacted her style and allowed her to overcome past struggles with self-expression.

Collins, who is preparing for the fourth season of the popular Netflix series, recalled a time when she felt constrained by her wardrobe choices due to a previous relationship. 'I entered what I consider a 'dull period,' where I wore muted colours and avoided anything too bold or revealing,' she said.

Collins also hinted at deeper emotional layers in the upcoming season and expressed excitement for her role as Polly Pocket in an upcoming Mattel adaptation.
