Lily Collins just showcased the 2026 trend I never anticipated seeing at a train station (even in Paris).

      Had I not already been aware that the new season of Emily in Paris was approaching due to the little red alert on my Netflix account, the sight of the cast arriving at Gare d’Austerlitz, a Parisian train station, clad in quintessential French style would have clued me in. Absent the series's trademark adventurous fashion choices, I might have questioned the outfit that star Lily Collins wore at the station, but given that Emily Cooper has always embraced bold fashion since season one, her lingerie-inspired outfit seemed entirely fitting. For the press event prior to the show's fifth season premiere on December 18, Collins selected a blush-pink, lace-trimmed romper (reminiscent of a teddy) from Saint Laurent, paired with sheer tights, sculptural pointed-toe heels, a single-breasted duster, and a patent-leather clutch, all also by the brand. While her long trench coat did help make the provocative one-piece feel more suitable for travel, the ensemble would be quite daring for any other occasion. Fortunately, she wasn't actually embarking on a regional trip to popular French destinations such as Bordeaux or Toulouse, but rather, she was merely generating excitement for another round of escapades for her unpredictable character.

      For a press tour, Collins' lace ensemble is absolutely spot-on, particularly with the ongoing trend of lingerie-inspired looks that has been gaining traction for several years. Lace-trimmed shorts, skirts, pants, and dresses are currently prevalent, both for the holiday season and into 2026, with brands like Reformation, Doên, Prada, and Saint Laurent embracing delicate, sheer, and sleepwear-friendly styles for everyday use. Before the best options sell out, keep scrolling. The finest lace-trimmed fashion pieces are listed below.
