After waiting nearly two decades for a sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, some fans are already voicing dissatisfaction at the beloved film’s follow-up. Anne Hathaway has been seen filming in New York City as she reprises her role as the ambitious and endearingly awkward Andy Sachs in the upcoming The Devil Wears Prada sequel. In response to behind-the-scenes shots of Andy’s wardrobe, some commenters remarked that the looks feel off. Gossip account Deuxmoi took to Instagram to show Hathaway in a geometric-patterned maxi dress and bucket hat, hopping onto the Jitney—a look some felt aligned more with fashion icon Carrie Bradshaw than timid Andy Sachs, the clumsy personal assistant unable to spell “Gabbana,” with one commenter writing, “It’s giving SJP in And Just Like That.” Another look emerged, capturing Hathaway’s character hurriedly walking down the street in a matching pinstripe waistcoat and slacks combo from Jean Paul Gaultier, carrying a simple black messenger bag. “Anne Hathaway carrying a Coach messenger bag…i fear the devil wears prada 2 is off to a rocky start,” wrote fashion expert Emily Kirkpatrick on Substack. Whether Andy shows up in the sequel carrying a Birkin or a paper bag, one thing is certain: fans are already channeling their inner Miranda Priestly.
