Emily earns an estimated $46,980 working for Savoir
According to the money experts at New Casinos, Emily earns $46,980 a year working at the marketing company. However, her consumption habits go much further.
From flaunting her expensive clothes to regular dining out to extravagant events for work, Emily seemingly has it all on the Netflix series. But based on her salary as Savoir’s marketing executive, can she really afford her lavish lifestyle?
Experts estimate that Emily Cooper spends more than $120,000 a year
Emily Cooper dresses some of the best designers in the industry, including Valentino, Prada and Balmain. The Vassilis Zoulias yellow patterned jacket that Emily wears in season 2, episode 4 only, is priced at $53,987.96. As such, New Casinos estimates that Emily spends $76,795.40 annually on clothing and accessories.

Rent: $33,127.84 Utilities: $2,372.40 Dining Out: $3,239.28 Nightlife/Drinks: $1,295.71 Transportation: $2,947.74 Coffee: $228
Emily’s total spending for the year is an estimated $120,006.37. That’s $73,025.42 more than she makes working at Savoir.
‘Emily in Paris’ lifestyle is ‘unrealistic’
Based on these estimates, a New Casinos representative says Emily’s lifestyle is not achievable for the average person. “When it comes to our favorite fictional TV shows, sometimes we have to remind ourselves that it’s not reality,” they said via email. “Emily in Paris is a show where extravagance is at the center, but it’s interesting to see how unrealistic Emily’s life of luxury is. The findings are a friendly reminder that her lifestyle isn’t exactly one to admire, given that her salary doesn’t cover half of her expenses.”
‘Emily in Paris’ returns on December 21 with season 3
No matter how unattainable Emily’s lifestyle is, many fans are eager to see what lavish adventures she embarks on in Season 3 of Emily in Paris. The second season, which will consist of 10 30-minute episodes, will premiere on Netflix on December 21, 2022.
