Lugano — A return to the world of high fashion unfolded in spectacular style as the cast of “The Devil Wears Prada 2” reunited for a dazzling New York premiere on Monday, blending cinematic nostalgia with bold red carpet statements.
The highly anticipated sequel brought together Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt, marking a major moment for both cinema and fashion audiences ahead of its theatrical release on May 1.
Held at Lincoln Center, the premiere doubled as a showcase of contemporary high fashion. Streep made a striking entrance in a dramatic red cape from Givenchy by Sarah Burton, paired with black gloves and dark sunglasses, echoing her iconic Miranda Priestly persona.
Hathaway matched the red carpet in a custom strapless red gown by Louis Vuitton, featuring a structured corset bodice and flowing skirt, completed with coordinated heels and minimal styling.
Blunt opted for contrast, wearing a Schiaparelli sculptural couture gown with a raffia bodice and layered skirt, bringing a refined yet dramatic presence to the event.
New addition Simone Ashley walked the red carpet in a green mini dress with a floor-length train, designed by Prada.
Joining the female cast, Stanley Tucci wore a sleek tailored suit, enhanced by a velvet jacket that added a subtle yet sophisticated edge.
Making a striking appearance, Lady Gaga, who is set to appear in the film, arrived in an elegant Saint Laurent black gown with a sleek, minimalist silhouette.
Beyond the red carpet, the reunion reinforced the film’s deep connection to the fashion world, with the franchise, first released in 2006, becoming a defining reference point for style, ambition, and the industry itself.
At the premiere, Streep also revealed that costumes, jewelry, and accessories featured in the film will be auctioned, with proceeds benefiting the Committee to Protect Journalists.
