Images from the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 continue to surface, and we are…withholding opinion. One thing 20th Century Studios didn’t have to contend with during the making of the original was round-the-clock paparazzi surveillance, the dispatches from which invite all sorts of misinformed assumptions about the lives of its characters. For example, Andy looks like she runs a “disruptive” talent agency in her vest suit.
But who’s to say this person is even interested in fashion? (The last film ended with Andy getting hired at the New York Mirror thanks to some amateur reporting on janitors’ unions.) And even if she is, who’s to say that being into, or working in, fashion is anything like it once was? (There are more vest suits than town cars outside today’s Vogue offices.) We don’t yet know the circumstances that have led to Andy’s fashion choices, but what is certain is that it’s Emily Charlton (now rumored to be an executive at Dior) and Miranda Priestly (navigating the collapse of traditional print media in the age of SEO) who will be the real litmus test for the sequel’s style.
Since the movie commenced filming in New York, more of the cast of characters—and their varying spectrum of aesthetics—have come to the fore. Enter newbies like Simone Ashley and Pauline Chalamet, and old guard Stanley Tucci. Gird your loins.
