Last night was the big NYC premiere for The Devil Wears Prada 2. While there’s so much excitement around this twenty-years-later sequel, the premiere fashion was not really going from strength to strength. I’m sure Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt each have their own individual stylists, but this would have been the perfect moment for some coordination between those three camps. I’m not asking for a Margot Robbie/Zendaya-esque theme-dressing extravaganza, just some coordination!
So, for the three main ladies of TDWP2, Anne wore this very structured Louis Vuitton dress in a lipstick red – I like this from the waist up, but overall… she could have done much better. Meryl wore Givenchy, and it’s horrible. Why would you put Meryl Streep in a glorified poncho??! Emily Blunt wore Schiaparelli, and it feels like she’s the only cast member who tried to go big and over-the-top. I dislike this dress, but I appreciate that she brought some drama.
Other premiere attendees, and this is not a comprehensive guest list… I’m including pics of Lady Gaga in a boring-ass Saint Laurent, Coco Rocha in a fantastic and fun Christian Siriano, and Justin Theroux and his wife Nicole Brydon Bloom. They just welcomed their first child, a son, a few days ago. I find that inhumane, actually, asking Nicole to walk a red carpet so quickly after giving birth. It would have not killed Justin to walk the carpet solo, but maybe it was Nicole’s choice.
