If you have been following every detail of The Devil Wears Prada 2 press tour, you are not alone, and frankly there is no shame in it. The original 2006 cast has been moving across cities ahead of the sequel’s release, and the outfits, collaborations, and fan moments have been worth every bit of attention. Meryl Streep has not missed once with her press tour looks. Emily Blunt, though absent from several events, made a quietly perfect appearance in New York recently in jeans and white sneakers. And then there is Anne Hathaway.
This week Hathaway stepped out in a Sacai coat, Dolce and Gabbana trousers, Versace shoes, Bulgari jewelry, and Khaite x Oliver Peoples sunglasses. But the piece that stopped us completely was her DeMellier New York Shoulder Bag. It is the kind of bag that says everything without trying. Structured, considered, and quietly confident. It is exactly what Andy Sachs would carry if she had fully grown into herself, less eager to impress and more certain of her own taste.
There is nothing wrong with a crossbody, we will never give ours up either. But a structured shoulder bag with clean lines and real presence is the move for anyone who wants their accessories to do the talking this season. Anne Hathaway just made the case for it better than anyone.
