Queer Eye Season 5: Lily- The Makeover And Reveal
For Queer Eye Season 5, I’ve shared all sorts of unique stories, inspiring heroes, and of course, dramatic home makeovers. And there’s just one episode left to share before this season comes to a close. For the final reveal, I’m sharing a young doctor – and the makeover that gave her home the care it needed.
We meet Lilly Yi in Episode 9 -” Paging Dr. Yi”. Lily is a Pediatrician who’s finished her medical residency and is starting her first job. Like many working moms, she feels a sense of guilt about not being home with her young daughter. And while her career is moving forward, her home (and sense of style) seems to be stuck in her college days.
The Fab Five spring to action to teach Lilly how to find a better work-life balance while also embracing a confident new look.
For this makeover, Lilly’s home went from lacking purpose to totally polished, as we transformed her dining room, living room, bedroom, and even her daughter’s room!
Keep scrolling to see the results of Lilly’s makeover, along with all the shoppable products for you to bring the look home.
And if you missed any of our previous makeovers, be sure to check out Ryan, Marcos, Abby, Nate, Jennifer, Noah, Rahanna, Kevin, and Tyreek from Season 5; Deanna, Kenny, Wanda, Kathi, Matt, and Wesley from Season 4; and Rob, Jess, Robert and Jody from Season 3.

where are the white bookshelves from in the living room??!! So cute!
They are from West Elm, but are unfortunately no longer available. We substituted with a similar style from Blu Dot. Thanks for your comment! xx -B
I have been trying to find a trash can exactly like the one you used in Lily’s kitchen! Can you help?! My partner and I watch Queer Eye because we love the whole crew, but, as she says at the end of every episode: “And here is Bobby, do the most-est!”
You can shop that trashcan here. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! xx -B
Hello, where did the kitchen bar stools come from?
