This past Saturday, fans of The Devil Wears Prada witnessed one of the most anticipated moments: the reunion of its protagonists. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt met again on stage at the SAG Awards to present Jeremy Allen White with the award for best actor in a comedy series for his work in The Bear.
Eighteen years after the premiere of this essential film for fashion lovers, the actresses starred in one of the most iconic and viral moments of the awards. Streep was the first to appear on the scene. “Two things: I have forgotten my glasses, clearly, and the envelope,” said the actress, causing laughter from the audience,” she said to the laughter of the audience.
Next, Hathaway and Blunt took the stage to present the envelope and glasses. "This is an old question. Where does the character end and the actor begin?" Streep questioned, to which Emily responded: "As we just saw, Meryl and Miranda Priestly are like twins, right?" A first nod to the character that Streep played in The Devil Wears Prada.
But he was not the only one, since Hathaway did not hesitate to interrupt the veteran actress when she said that she did not think she looked much like the editor-in-chief of Runway magazine. "No, no, that wasn't a question," she said, referring to one of Priestly's most famous quotes. Blunt also uttered another of his boss's lines in fiction. "Please take your time. You know how much I love to wait," she said.
An iconic moment that also had its nod in the form of a dress. And Anne Hathaway caused a sensation with a spectacular Atelier Versace design with which she paid tribute to one of the scenes most remembered by fans of the film where she plays the young journalist Andy Sachs.
On her first day as Miranda Priestly's second assistant, she attends a meeting in the editor's office where the magazine's stylists cannot choose between two belts that are practically the same to match a dress. A debate that makes the journalist laugh and causes her boss to respond badly, reminding her that the cerulean blue sweater she is wearing at that moment had been chosen by people like them, referring to professionals in the fashion industry.
The look chosen by the actress for this date with her companions was a clear nod to this scene. Her dress was in that blue hue, with a Bardot neckline and fashionable openings and also included a wide belt with an XL buckle. A style that was highly applauded and that combined with an impressive Bvlgari necklace.
