From Mexico City, to Tokyo, to Shanghai—The Devil Wears Prada 2 press tour has been nothing short of a global phenomenon, all leading up to tonight’s highly anticipated New York premiere. Each appearance has brought out some of this season’s most extravagant styles, including looks from Susan Fang, Schiaparelli, Valentino, Chanel, Stella McCartney, and, of course, Prada. The designer blitz is a far cry from the more subdued looks that graced the movie’s original red carpet at the L.A. Film Festival 20 years ago. As Meryl Streep noted in Vogue’s May 2026 cover story to Greta Gerwig, “Well, everybody was afraid of Anna on the first one, so we couldn’t find any clothes.”
This time around, vibrant, fresh-off-the-runway fashion is taking center stage. “I’m aware of the eyeballs on it,” Erin Walsh—Anne Hathaway’s longtime stylist and former early 2000s Voguette—told Vogue’s Christian Allaire. The inspiration for such exciting looks? “If you look at all the major houses that have these new leading them, there’s this idea of leaning into joy, and clothes that make you feel like the supernova version of yourself,” explained Walsh.
There’s been ample opportunity to play up the nostalgia from the original film’s costumes, too. A few of the cast members have sported their own updated versions of the famous cerulean blue—Streep sported a custom J.Crew crewneck, Hathaway opted for fringed Sacai, and Simone Ashley (the Gen Z Emily) stepped out in a Fidan Novruzova dress.
Tonight, The Devil Wears Prada 2 lands in New York for the official world premiere. See all of the exciting looks from the red carpet below.
