The dazzling image of Lily Collins in Venice made her think of her character Emily Cooper from the series ‘Emily in Paris’ as her follower. The actress was at the same time energetically promoting the next installment of the series and posed in a gorgeous dress, which could easily be mistaken for one of the characters’ outfits. “If Emily had her polka dots in Venice, then so do I,” the actress stated, thus ingeniously blending her real-life press tour with the make-believe world of the fashion goddess. The easy-going post caught the eye of her audience almost instantly, who not only expressed their admiration but also reflected a bit deeper than usual.

The reaction was absolutely favorable, and most of her followers were simply mesmerized by her appearance. One fan called her ‘The most beautiful in the world’, another one went even further and drew a light-hearted comparison saying: ‘You are so sweet. You are like Alice in Wonderland’. Besides the conventional Hollywood parallels, another viewer was quick to label her ‘Modern day Audrey Hepburn’ with a flood of emojis accompanying the statement. The homage to the style could not be more obvious, and another onlooker summed the mood just right when saying: ‘Mirror, Mirror…’.

However, amid all the compliments about fashion, the question of the actor’s career was raised once more. The audience’s desire to see Lily Collins in non-comic roles was the one that was consistently expressed. A fan saying he/she was a follower from the start and criticizing the actress at the same time, in a manner that was quite gentle told her: ‘Hey Lily Collins … I am a Lillian. In 2018 I saw u first and it has been u ever since. I was on the inside when u were on the outside world. I adored ur mystical and ethereal aura…The show did not cover the artist in u; u were just like an Instagram influencer. That’s what happened to ur mystic ethereal aura….’. Another user sharing the same opinion said: ‘Lily please do movies, something other than Emily in Paris… Please… We miss ur previous work, they were so lily.’ These remarks suggest that it is a very peculiar case where the audience’s longing to see an actor in a new role always exceeds the actor’s current role.

Furthermore, the post attracted some cryptic and even creepy comments, which are essentially the other aspect of the coin that all major celebs online personas have. Most of the time, these comments were either difficult to comprehend or very severe, and there was no significant connection to the image or the caption. On the contrary, they were completely opposite to the main theme which was a combination of beauty appreciation and artist’s career involving quite complex discussion.

In conclusion, we can state that Lily Collins’s Instagram post from Venice is an exact reflection of her present public image. It is a strong connection of character and personality, a fashionably clever promotion method for the already very much loved show, and a whirlwind of wider discussions about her artistic journey. The polka dots are more than a print; they signify a character that was a part of her career, whether for good or, in the eyes of some, for a change. The hype for Season 5 is on and Collins continues to be the center of attention, not just as Emily Cooper but also as a woman who has to deal with the expectations that come with her very special kind of fame. Her recent Elle Spain cover shoot also turned heads, while she has been known to channel Carrie Bradshaw for promotion. Beyond acting, she enjoys moments like sharing a Scandinavian reading moment with her daughter and teams up with brands for projects like her chic collaboration with Cartier and Elle Arabia.
