Emily Blunt dyes her brown hair a ravishing red in first sighting on The Devil Wears Prada 2 set
Emily Blunt cut and dyed her brunette locks a ravishing red in her first sighting on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 in Manhattan's West Side on Tuesday. The British 42-year-old had a deeper burgundy shade when she originated the role of Emily Charlton, the beleaguered senior assistant of Runway Magazine editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) in the 2006 film. Emily exited the 10 Hudson Yards building wearing a white Dior blouse beneath a black pinstripe corseted top, matching wide-leg trousers, and pumps selected by costume designer Molly Rogers. It marks the second time Rogers replaced her Oscar-nominated mentor Patricia Field on a high-profile project following HBO Max's Sex and the City continuation, And Just Like That. Devil Wears Prada director David Frankel and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna returned to adapt Lauren Weisberger's 2013 novel Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns set a decade later. In the book, Emily teams up with her former co-worker Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) to create the successful aspirational wedding magazine, The Plunge, which Miranda wants to acquire for her own publishing company.

Emily Blunt Styles Anti-Designer Sneakers and a $3,700 Dior Bag for 'The Devil Wears Prada 2'
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The Devil Wears Prada 2 has been in production for nearly three days, and not a single pair of Jimmy Choos has strutted onto set. I was counting on Emily Blunt to wear some sky-high stilettos. After all, she did originate one of the film's most memorable designer name drops: "You sold your soul to the devil when you put on your first pair of Jimmy Choos," she quips. However, for her grand return to playing Emily Charlton, Blunt channeled summer's chunky sneaker trend with anti-Emily white trainers. After her first full day of filming, Blunt was spotted in a high-low look including metallic leather Axel Arigato sneakers. They usually retail for $325, but they frequently go on sale. Right now, Farfetch lists them at $178—that's $147 you can put toward her Dior Book Tote. Fulfilling the "high" portion of her outfit, Blunt carried the Small Dior Book Tote in the "Desert Taupe" colorway. It matched the structured, rectangular shape of creative director Jonathan Anderson's recent remodel, except with former designer Maria Grazia Chiuri's quilted Macrocannage exterior. The tiny tote boasts a $3,700 price tag—and contrary to her shoes, it doesn't go on sale. Under the careful watch of Miranda Priestly, Blunt's character never dared to sample denim trends in the original 2006 film. Even Hathaway's character, Andy Sachs, went jeans-less until her post-Runway era. So, fans were shocked to see Blunt in light-wash skinny jeans on the sequel's set. She paired them with an equally casual baseball cap and a neon T-shirt, which hails from Maison Margiela. In The Devil Wears Prada, little black dresses were more Emily's speed (at least in the office). The type-A assistant often took style cues from Miranda in blazers and matching sets. Blunt's current role in the Prada-verse is still unknown. Is she still at Runway? Or did she follow Andy's lead and leave the industry? The actress's latest outfit suggests the latter plot made the cut. But filming has only just gotten started, and her next look could serve a designer plot twist.

Am I the Only One Who Wants 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' to Stop Spoiling the Costumes?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Surely I can't be the only moviegoer to opt out of watching trailers. To get me into an AMC, all I need is an elevator pitch: the cast list, the genre, the faintest sketch of the plot. The rest I'll digest with popcorn in hand and my eyes glued to the screen. When The Devil Wears Prada announced its highly-anticipated sequel, I obviously planned to ignore teasers in all forms. I was too young to see the 2006 original in theaters. This time around, I yearned to view Anne Hathaway in all her Chanel-clad glory up on the silver screen—not my phone screen. On July 21, however, The Devil Wears Prada 2 thwarted my plan. Without warning, Andy Sachs (a.k.a. Hathaway) appeared on my Instagram feed, dressed in Chanel dad sandals and a denim maxi skirt. This singular moment opened the costume floodgates, and now, the Prada-verse is all I see online. Paparazzi photographers and amateur TikTokers are busier than ever, prepped with their widest-lens cameras and cell phones to capture Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Meryl Streep, or all three back in action. Hathaway has been on set for less than a week, and already, she's been spotted in five Andy Sachs sets. That's at least a quarter of the movie (or a singular makeover montage set to Madonna's "Vogue"). One of her most viral looks so far was her first suit, a cross between Runway editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly's moody color palette in the first film and an Aritzia summer sale rack. In theory, her tailored waist coat, Golden Goose ankle boots, and vintage Coach bag didn't spoil the plot. It did confirm Andy's workwear aesthetic has taken a turn that aligns with her story. By the time it's projected on an 120-inch screen next May, I might be underwhelmed—because I know it's coming. A few hours later, my phone pinged again with another Hathaway sighting. Dressed in a $7,900 Gabriela Hearst gown, the Oscar winner seemingly gave away a major plot point: She's back at Runway. While en route to the Hampton Jitney bus, Andy was impossible to miss in multi-color beachwear, plus a Runway garment bag hanging from her carry-on suitcase. This confused thousands of fans online: At the end of the first film, after all, Andy quit her journalist job at the top-tier, yet toxic, publication. So, did you just toss your phone in the water fountain for fun, Andy? Or, did you realize Miranda was right—and everyone does, in fact, want this? I shouldn't be surprised paparazzi are posted up on every corner. Nearly twenty years have passed since the first movie and its cultural cachet has only grown in that time. (How many times have you recited the trickle-down cerulean speech? Exactly.) Photos of the set are in high demand, and each one sets off its own mini discourse about the brands the actors are wearing, the way they're styled, and what it all could possibly mean. Of course photographers are going the distance to snap a sneak peek. Some are even shooting through a 30-story high rise, which appears to be Runway magazine's new home. (Another spoiler sabotaged by paparazzi.) Still, in art and in life, nothing gets past Miranda Priestly. On July 23, Streep waved to photographers from one of the highest floors while she was in character. Another now-viral TikTok revealed Miranda, Andy, and Stanley Tucci's character, Nigel Kipling, are all working together again—on 6th Avenue, no less. There goes my dream of Andy launching her own magazine without an ounce of Miranda's input. The clip also included the name of a potential new publication: Adore. The title appeared on the office's large TV, while Hathaway smiled at fans in another never-before-seen white T-shirt, matching trousers, and a navy blue blazer. It's almost a rite of passage for New York City films to have their costumes photographed while the project is still in production. Last summer, Dakota Johnson's Materialists got the same paparazzi treatment. Marie Claire ID'ed every outfit months before the rom-com released in June 2025. However, the sartorial stakes weren't nearly as high for Materialists as they are for The Devil Wears Prada 2. Johnson's character, a high-profile matchmaker, dressed well enough, but fashion wasn't an integral part of the plot. By knowing who and what Miranda and Andy are wearing, we could be robbing ourselves of major gasps in the theater. A single garment bag seemingly answered the question we've been asking ourselves for two decades, after all. Since The Devil Wears Prada 2 is filming mostly in NYC, far away from 20th Century Studios' lot, hoping for zero spoilers appears to be a pipe dream. Even the studio itself shared Hathaway's first two outfits on Instagram. From now until May 1, 2026, however, I'll do my best to scroll past any more posts. I'm trying to preserve the integrity of cinema, people. And who knows? Maybe it was the cast's plan all along. Perhaps they're showing the laidback looks now and reserving more extravagant costumes for May 1. Besides, if Meryl Streep didn't want to be seen, the legend has the power of three Academy Awards to ensure she remained invisible. Was this was a ploy to get audiences talking? If so, congratulations. It worked. Solve the daily Crossword

The Best Hair and Makeup Moments From ‘The Devil Wears Prada' Original Movie
Embedded in the DNA of early 2000s beauty is the finely plucked eyebrows, lightly blushed lips and icy makeup that screamed, 'I'm dead inside,' seen on the women at Runway — the fictional fashion magazine portrayed in David Frankel's 2006 film 'The Devil Wears Prada,' starring Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt. Since its release, the movie has been praised as the blueprint for the hair and makeup trends of this time, minus a few satirical embellishments. Streep's character, Miranda Priestly, the formidable editor in chief, as well as Blunt's character, Emily Charlton, Miranda's first assistant, are cast as the à la mode glamour models of the fashion mecca with shadow up to their eyebrow bone and black eyeliner painted in their waterline. Anne Hathaway's character Andy Sachs, the aspiring news journalist who lands a job as Miranda's second assistant, is conversely the archetypal minimalist — a no-makeup, only Chapstick type of girl — before she inevitably conforms to the ubiquitous aesthetic of the Runway. More from WWD Fairchild Media Group Reaches 8.9 Million Monthly Unique Visitors, Expanding Leadership in Fashion and Beauty Media Meet the L.A. Healer Loved by Celebs, Now She's Bottled Her Signature Glow Supermodel Iman's Best Beauty Moments on the Runway From 1981 to 1989 Eleven years later, Hathaway, Streep and Blunt are coming together once again, this time to epitomize modern-day beauty trends as they reprise their storied roles in 'The Devil Wears Prada 2,' scheduled to release on May 1. Nicki Ledermann, Jane DiPersio and Emily Marroquin will be handling the makeup, while Sean Flanigan leads the hair department. Ahead, WWD takes a look back at all the best beauty moments from the original movie created by artists Angel De Angelis, Robert Chiu, Ledermann, J. Roy Helland, Maya Hardinge and Evelyne Noraz. Naked Beauty As the newly minted second assistant to Miranda at Runway, Hathaway's Andy doesn't pay too much attention to her appearance. In fact, she stays true to her typical makeup, which is none. Here, Andy struggles with the concept of high fashion while grappling with the reality of working at a prestigious magazine. Her appearance is raw and untouched, comprised of long, dark brown tresses, arched brows, and the faintest touch of pink-tinged lip balm; her nails are cut short and kept bare. Daunting glam There's no question that Miranda is the quintessential intimidating boss. She expects her staff to have a flawless understanding of her taste and absolute respect for the artistry of fashion. When Andy appears to be void of both, snickering at the sight of two belts that look identical, Miranda's expression goes wide; her gray-toned, high-brow eye shadow and lash extensions growing with it. Her lips are pursed and painted in a cerise-pink matte shade, and her silver hair is perfectly coiffed to the left side of her face. This is Miranda's truest form, a face full of makeup and still inundated with disgust. Devilish Eyeliner The look of sneaky satisfaction requires a ton of black eyeliner, and one that Blunt's character, Emily Charlton, favors well. Watching Andy struggle to manage Miranda's list of impossible tasks, Emily's eyes are lined in a thick ring of black sweeping across her eyelids and in her waterline. Her burnt orange, shoulder-length hair is brushed back into a half-up, half-down hairdo, accentuating her gothic eye. If it weren't for her bubblegum lip gloss and sly smirk, Emily would've appeared to be giving Andy the ultimate death stare. The Y2K Schoolgirl A major turning point in the film occurs after Andy seeks the help of Tucci's character, Nigel, the art director at Runway. Andy cries to Nigel after Miranda expresses her disapproval of her. In an attempt to correct Miranda's impression, Nigel transforms Andy into the ultimate 'It' girl. Her once disheveled, grown-out bangs are trimmed in line with her eyebrows; her ends are chopped just below her shoulders. Andy's visage is still minimal and even-toned; however, she now adds some mascara, a little bit of eyeliner and lip gloss, an overall effortless aesthetic to pair with her new Chanel, of course. The '90s Runway Model Supermodel Gisele Bündchen makes a few cameos in 'The Devil Wears Prada' as a Runway employee who constantly gossips with Emily at her desk. For her appearances, Bündchen's makeup is pared down in comparison to Emily's trademark cat-eye eyeliner. In this scene specifically (pictured below), her character is in shock at the sight of Andy walking through the office doors, boasting a new makeover. Bündchen's hair is combed away from her face and tied in a bun to highlight her shocked visage. Her lashes are prominent under her rectangular readers; the tips reaching to the tops of her frames. Meanwhile, her parted lips are dressed in a brown-toned matte shade. Next to her, Emily is donning a lighter shade of lipstick, top eyeliner and bottom mascara. Serious Shadow A rare moment of unison between Andy, Miranda and Emily ensues during a charity benefit at the American Museum of Natural History. Andy is asked to attend alongside Emily, who's overtly under the weather — with a runny nose, glossy eyes, and all. The prowess of Andy during this scene is undeniable, as she stuns not only Emily and Miranda with how much she has come to learn about the inner workings of the fashion world, but also herself. And it shows in her gala glam. Andy styles her hair in a twisted bun on the crown of her head; her bangs are blown out and brushed over her forehead. She wears more eye shadow than she ever has before, along with a bold red lip, signaling her newfound understanding of beauty's relationship to style. Next to her, Miranda embellishes her everyday countenance with heavy blue shadow all over her eyes and buffed to her eyebrows. Emily, on the other hand, pairs her flem and natural flush with a charcoal hue on her eyes and bare lips. Disheveled Bombshell Andy's success as Miranda's assistant is bolstered by her unrequited loyalty and desire to impress. This, however, causes her to lose many other people in her life, only to end up in the arms of a traitor named Christian Thompson, played by Simon Baker. The morning she realizes Christian's working against Miranda (pictured here), catapults Andy right out of her Paris Fashion Week fantasy romance and into panic mode. Her hair is tangled, her makeup is smudged under her eyes and her lipstick is completely faded. Poised With a Perfect Red Lip Knowing people are plotting against Miranda still doesn't stop Andy from doing what's expected of her. In this case, it's getting herself together and putting on a face of makeup for one last time. Before she makes the pointed decision to throw her phone in a fountain and quit Runway, Andy paints her face to please Miranda. She pulls her hair back into a half-up, half-down BumpIt and brushes her bangs to the sides. Once again, her lips are colored in a dark red shade, and her eyelashes are accentuated with black eyeliner. Andy's eyebrows are slightly arched and thinly plucked, and she's only wearing a touch of blush under her cheekbones.

Emily Blunt keeps a low profile as she leaves set of The Devil Wears Prada 2
Emily Blunt kept things casual as she was spotted leaving the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 in New York City on Tuesday. The actress, 42, who is reprising her role of Emily Charlton from the first movie, tried to keep a low profile in a baby blue T-shirt tucked into a pair of jeans. Emily completed the look with a baseball cap, a pair of white trainers, a gold necklace, and a handbag. Emily portrayed the assistant of magazine editor Miranda Priestly, portrayed by Meryl Streep while Anne Hathaway starred as her junior assistant Andy Sachs. All three women are reprising their roles in the sequel alongside new cast members Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, BJ Novak, and Pauline Chalamet. In the sequel, Emily's character, Emily Charlton, has climbed the corporate ladder and now holds the power Miranda needs, setting the stage for a delicious clash of ambition, loyalty, and fashion politics. While plot details are still under wraps, sources suggest the film may draw inspiration from Lauren Weisberger's 2013 novel Revenge Wears Prada, which follows Andy's post-Runway life as she becomes a magazine editor, only to find Miranda crashing back into her world. The Devil Wears Prada 2 is slated to hit theaters on May 1, 2026, marking two decades since the original movie became a pop culture icon. The original movie lifted the lid on the cut-throat fashion world, and two decades on, that world will have changed, not least for Runway editor-in-chief Miranda, played by Meryl. The movie is expected to at least reveal her fate, showing her character dealing with the decline of print industry. One question is whether she will have retained her icy demeanor. In one scene in the first film, Andy chuckles through an editorial fashion meeting led by Priestly, who then delivers a cutting assessment of her 'cerulean' sweater. 'You think this has nothing to do with you,' Priestly tells her. The editor adds: 'You go to your closet, and you select, I don't know, that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back, but what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean.' The scene became iconic and spawned the 'cerulean blue' theory of how all styles trickle down from the catwalk. Anne's post went viral, with fans quoting Miranda's epic takedown of Andy's supposed fashion indifference. One said: 'She's wearing that cerulean blue!!!' Another confessed they felt 'like a kid waiting for Christmas for The Devil Wears Prada sequel'.
