Camille Razat by Kevin Tachman for Roger Vivier SS24<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Earlier this month, Roger Vivier<\/a> invited guests to attend Les \u00c9l\u00e9ments Vivier, an immersive presentation of the house’s Spring\/Summer 2024 collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Across four floors of the heritage building in Paris, creative director Gherardo Felloni imagined a theatrical installation within the opulent French architecture in collaboration with the Italian set designer Leila Maria Fteita. Inspirations behind the collection were unveiled across four levels, each one dramatically fitted with rich d\u00e9cor to represent the key design pillars of the Vivier universe.<\/p>\n

Offering a dialogue between past and present, Les \u00c9l\u00e9ments Vivier<\/a> illustrated the spirit of craftsmanship fueled by fantasy that characterises the house’s work. Through live demonstrations of embroidery, draping and other craft \u2018know-how\u2019 that goes into crafting every piece, a peek behind the curtain showcased the true luxury Felloni has continued.<\/p>\n

From the moment guests stepped across the historic threshold, they were engulfed by Monsieur Vivier’s vivid creativity. Walking across wooden bridges set over ponds and wildflowers, it’s easy to get lost in the imagination of it all. But what anchors these fantastical designs that set Roger Vivier apart is the timeless quality that has sustained its place in fashion history. One person who knows this all too well is Camille Razat, actress and longtime ambassador for Roger Vivier. In Paris, GRAZIA<\/em> sat down with the Emily in Paris<\/em> star<\/a> for a chat in the whimsical setting.<\/p>\n

Having worked with the brand for years now, the French native gushed about the lineup of women she finds herself joining. “They\u2019ve put shoes on the most iconic women ever, including Queen Elizabeth II, Catherine Denueve and Jos\u00e9phine Baker,” she tells me of the brand’s legacy. “But it still feels like a well-kept secret, as you don’t see the brand plastered everywhere.”<\/p>\n

And she’s not wrong. For decades now, Roger Vivier has been a quiet achiever, with designs that are bold and rich with character but never in your face\u2014everything we’ve come to associate with Parisian glamour. But as we know, ‘French Girl’ fashion has many interpretations, none more devoured than that of a certain Netflix series…<\/p>\n

Love it or hate it, Emily in Paris<\/em> was (and still is) a major hit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was light and joyful in a time when people needed that,” Razat says of the show’s success during the pandemic. \u201cAnd, of course, it\u2019s Darren [Star]. Everything he touches is incredible.”<\/p>\n

While Francophiles swooned over the Parisian dreamscapes, many were quick to point out the Netflix series’ exaggerated representation of French life. Bus Razat believes the naysayers are missing the point.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a heightened reality of Paris and the Parisian way of life,” she explains. “Of course we play into clich\u00e9s<\/a>, but I think people love it because we almost make fun of what people think we are in a way.”<\/p>\n

And naturally, as is the case with anything by Starr, \u201cThere\u2019s also the fashion<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

In all the cast’s maximalist senses of style, it’s clear that the Jane Birkins<\/a> and Fran\u00e7oise Hardys of the world aren’t the inspiration in this Patricia Field-coloured world. Sure, take a stroll down Avenue Montaigne or Avenue des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es, and you may catch this particularly glamorous breed of fashion girl in the wild, but Razat agrees it’s not exactly a reflection of the Paris she knows.<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s part of the magic. Just like how Sex and the City<\/em><\/a> isn\u2019t actually [representative] of what everyday New Yorkers dress like,” she tells me. “So, yes, it\u2019s completely different from everyday Parisian life, but, on the other hand, I do know people who dress up similarly.\u201d<\/p>\n

She jokes that Parisiennes enjoy ease and comfort and couldn’t wear heels all day\u2014not with so many cobblestone paths around.<\/p>\n

With any actor who portrays a recurring role in a series, it’s natural to wonder how much one would resonate with their character. And though she definitely prefers to nip issues in the bud before it can take on EIP<\/em> levels of drama, she sees parts of herself in her character, Camille.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I\u2019m as free-spirited as Camille in that I make my own decisions, and I\u2019m independent. I think I have a lot in common with her like that,” she says. “But I must say, in my personal life, I\u2019m much more direct. I would never scheme like her. If something\u2019s wrong with someone, I have to discuss it straight away.\u201d<\/p>\n

She does agree that Camille is a misunderstood soul. \u201cHugely\u201d so.<\/p>\n

The same sentiment applies to taste, too. Anyone who’s privy to Razat’s sense of style knows that the actress is always a memorable appearance on any red carpet. As she tells me, she and Camille differ in that regard.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d say my look has more of a quirk to it,” she explains. “Camille is almost the more mainstream version of me and my style.\u201d<\/p>\n

From effortless denim and striped Bretons to Espadrilles and woven basket bags, French fashion is a highly mythologised aesthetic. Razat understands the world’s obsession with this look, crediting the underestimated difficulty of looking ‘simple’ for the long-lived intrigue. But she doesn’t think people get it wrong, though, as much as they home in too much on one part of a much bigger picture.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think people necessarily get anything wrong, but there really isn\u2019t one way of French dressing,” she posits. “You have the people who do wear no makeup and just perfect jeans and t-shirts, that\u2019s true, but you also have a huge punk scene where people rock thick eyeliner and everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the two seasons, she’s come to work closely with the wardrobe department, always trying to find small designers and up-and-coming talent to spotlight on the show’s huge platform. Knowing what works and will pass as Camille\u2019s style<\/a>\u2014and what won\u2019t\u2014is key, though.<\/p>\n

As for her own personal style inspiration, Kate Moss is her forever muse, and must-have staples include menswear leather jackets, a gorgeous Trench coat she just picked up, and Roger Vivier’s \u201cEscarpins\u201d (pumps).<\/p>\n

“I love them. It\u2019s a very simple design with a heart shape. Very chic and timeless,” she gushes. “I\u2019ve had them for years now, and they\u2019re comfortable, which is super rare.\u201d<\/p>\n

Naturally, there\u2019s plenty of Roger Vivier to be spotted in Emily in Paris<\/em>. From Sylvie’s elegant totes and Camille’s chunky loafers to Emily’s glitzy evening bag, the French maison is a go-to for the wardrobe department.<\/p>\n

Now, if you\u2019ve come this far to find out what we can expect for the fourth season of Emily In Paris<\/em>, well, that\u2019s not a question for anyone.<\/p>\n

When we speak, the Hollywood SAG-AFTRA strike<\/a> is enduring its third month. This means not only is there no set date for the third season at present, but Razat herself is still learning what\u2019s next. At this time, shooting has not been scheduled, and Razat is as in the dark about Camille’s fate after a season three<\/a> cliffhanger as the rest of us, so it will sadly be a while before the show returns to our screens.<\/p>\n

While Razat herself is not personally a part of the Screen Actors Guild\u2014a decision she explains comes down to her preference to dictate her own conditions and rates for independent passion projects\u2014the industry is facing a global turning point. In some ways, it’s given her time to think about what she wants to do next.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I\u2019ve tried to maintain since the beginning of my career is not to be pigeonholed,\u201d she says. \u201cI choose roles that are completely different from one another. Even in terms of genre, I try to choose a mix of drama, comedy, and maybe a thriller. Just like with my taste, I like to mix it up so that people don\u2019t just see me as one specific thing.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut that\u2019s what I love about my job. I don\u2019t want to do the same thing over and over.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42672,"featured_media":82517,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[17,16],"yoast_head":"\nCamille Razat On Emily In Paris Season 4 & French
