Meryl Streep Dons Sharp Black Boots for ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ World Premiere
Meryl Streep had a statement boot moment at the world premiere of “The Devil Wears Prada 2” on Monday at Lincoln Center in New York City.
The actress leaned in thematically for the premiere look with a red Givenchy by Sarah Burton look. She showcased a scarlet leather cape-like dress with a matching necktie. Dramatic black accents included above-the-elbow gloves, oversized sunglasses and her boots. Streep showcased a pointed-toe style with a tall stiletto heel, making for a sleek and sharp silhouette.
Working with stylist Micaela Erlanger, Streep has showcased a number of striking footwear looks throughout “The Devil Wears Prada 2” press tour. In alignment with the film, she’s had multiple red pump moments, including earlier in the day on Monday with Jimmy Choo Isa 95 pumps. She also wore red patent leather pumps from Dolce & Gabbana for the global press junket on Friday and red slingback pumps from Aldo at an event in Mexico City in March. Another shoe look she’s showcased is the Sole Bliss Riviera gold leather sandal from Erlanger’s collaborative collection with Sole Bliss.
David Frankel returned to direct the long-awaited sequel to the 2006 film “The Devil Wears Prada,” an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Lauren Weisberger. “The Devil Wears Prada 2” finds Hathaway’s Andy Sachs working as a features editor at Runway magazine, returning about 20 years after she served as an assistant to demanding editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, played by Streep.
In addition to Hathaway and Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci reprise their roles as Emily Charlton and Nigel Kipling. Meanwhile, Molly Rogers is the costume designer for the film, taking the reins from Patricia Field, who worked on the first film. The sequel is set for release on May 1.
