Anne Hathaway Recreates Iconic Blue Sweater in Preparation for “The Devil Wears Prada 2”

After nearly two decades, the memorable cerulean sweater from the original film is making a comeback. Anne Hathaway recently shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her attire while preparing to film the sequel, sparking excitement among fans.

In a short video posted on social media, Hathaway, 42, showed herself in a blue knit sweater reminiscent of the one famously worn by her character, Andy Sachs, in the 2006 film. She captioned the clip, “Heading to werk #dwp2,” giving fans a peek at her look.

Fans might recall the scene where Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) uses the “lumpy blue sweater” to illustrate how fashion trends trickle down from high-end designers to everyday clothing. The monologue explains that cerulean, a vivid shade of blue, was first introduced on runways by brands like Oscar de la Renta and Yves Saint Laurent before being mass-produced and sold in stores, often in less glamorous outlets.

In the film, Priestly emphasizes the significance of such colors and their impact on the industry, stating, “That sweater is not just blue; it’s cerulean, a hue that represents millions and countless jobs.” This line is iconic and highlights the power of fashion choices.

As filming for the sequel officially begins, Hathaway has shared sneak peeks of her character’s new wardrobe, including a sleek pinstriped vest with matching high-waisted trousers, suggesting Andy is back in the fashion scene with a modern twist.

She was also spotted on set dressed in a casual yet chic ensemble, pairing a white tank top with a denim midi skirt and Chanel slides — a departure from Andy’s signature over-the-knee boots. The relaxed look suggests her character has embraced a more comfortable yet fashionable style.

The highly anticipated sequel is set to be released on May 1, 2026, promising fans a fresh take on the iconic world of fashion and power.
