Emily’s Paris Match! Meet Zoe Bouchoule, the French model who fills in for Lily Collins on the hit show… and makes fans see twice
Fans are used to the fast fashion changes in Emily In Paris. But it seems that characters’ bodies can also change rapidly.
That’s because the lead actress, Lily Collins, and some of her co-stars in the Netflix series have stand-ins that are used in many scenes.
Miss Collins’ body double is French model Zoe Bouchoule, 28, whose social media posts include images of the couple together in identical costumes. In one photo, the couple have matching hairstyles and custom plaid swimwear skirt sets by Leslie Amon.
There are also videos of her doing burlesque routines on Miss Bouchoule’s Instagram page. One picture shows her in a gold snakeskin leotard and fishnet tights.

She says she is “blessed” to work with Miss Collins, 33. Other Emily stars with stand-ins include Lucas Bravo, who plays Gabriel. His body double is Guillaume Gronnier.
And it seems Miss Bouchoule’s friendship with Ms Collins is more than just on set, as the actress comments and likes her French boyfriend’s photos, leaving heart emojis and compliments like “stunning” under the posts.
The pair were also spotted together at the ‘Saison Trois’ premiere earlier this month in Paris, with Ms Bouchoule wearing a halterneck maxi dress in a soft blush.
“I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with this one, Lily Collins, and the wonderful crew at Emily In Paris during this time [the past] three months,” the dancer wrote of the first season.

“It’s been tough, it’s been long but such an amazing experience. Thank you guys Thank you, thank you, thank you.”
Singer and actor David Dax, who played the double for Lucien Laviscount’s Alfie, also shared photos from his time on Emily In Paris season 3, including selfies with Laviscount and Ms Bouchoule.
The French actor, who was previously a stuntman at Disneyland Paris and recently performed a tribute number to Michael Jackson in the musical Black Legends, included a shot of the beaming couple during a hot air balloon ride.
In an Instagram story, he revealed that the long shots of Emily and Alfie in the Ami hot air balloon actually showed their doubles, who made the journey for them.
French actor William Abadie, 45, who plays Sylvie’s (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) married lover Antoine, previously revealed on his Instagram page that Ms Bouchoule “was Emily when Emily wasn’t around”.
“You wonder who Emily is when Emily isn’t around?
“None other than the dedicated, patient and oh so talented Zoe Bouchoule!”
