Anne Hathaway Wows at London Premiere of ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ with Versace Look and Arsenal Tribute

Anne Hathaway turned heads at the London premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2, arriving in Leicester Square in a striking Versace ensemble that blended haute couture with a personal nod to her football fandom. The actress, reprising her role as Andy Sachs, wore a deconstructed tuxedo-inspired corset dress featuring sheer panel cut-outs and a velvet skirt, styled by her longtime collaborator Erin Walsh. The look was completed with a high-flung power ponytail, marking the culmination of weeks of meticulously curated red carpet appearances during the film’s global press tour.

Hathaway’s London appearance followed premieres in New York, Mexico, Tokyo, Seoul, and Shanghai, each showcasing a different designer statement—from Stella McCartney minidresses to Balenciaga cocoon coats and Louis Vuitton tea dresses. For the European finale, she chose Versace, with Donatella Versace herself in attendance, wearing an elegant off-the-shoulder black column gown.

In a subtle yet meaningful gesture, Hathaway draped an Arsenal FC shirt over her shoulder as she walked the red carpet, a tribute to her long-standing support for the North London club. The gesture was noted by fans and media alike as a personal touch amid the glamour of the event.

She was joined by co-stars Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt, who also made notable fashion statements. Streep arrived in a red satin Prada coat over a silk blouse and tailored black trousers, accessorized with matching scarlet heels and her signature dark sunglasses. Blunt, returning as Emily Charlton, opted for an understated yet coordinated look featuring a red strapless top, cigarette trousers, and matching heels, styled by Micaela Erlanger.

The sequel, directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, sees the return of the original creative team behind the 2006 hit. Set in the evolving world of Runway magazine, the film follows Andy Sachs as she reunites with Miranda Priestly and Emily Charlton amid the challenges facing traditional print media in a digital age.

The London premiere at Leicester Square marked a significant moment in the film’s promotional campaign, celebrating both the legacy of the original and the continued cultural relevance of its characters, and themes.
