She might have never ventured to the City of Lights, but Emily Charlton has made a striking appearance in New York. Indeed, actress Emily Blunt has been glimpsed for the very first time on the set of "The Devil Wears Prada 2," embodying her fiery-haired character with unmistakable flair. A fan exuberantly exclaimed, "EMILY CHARLTON IS BACK!!!!!" on X (formerly known as Twitter), accompanied by snapshots of Blunt, donned in a chic black-and-white pinstriped corset and trousers, layered elegantly over a pristine white Dior button-up shirt.
"The crimson mane is serving looks," commented one enthusiast, while another remarked, "She devoured the scene and left not a trace behind." The anticipation among fans is palpable as they eagerly await to see what fashion marvels her character, the fiercely ambitious senior assistant at Runway magazine, will don in the sequel. One X user voiced their high wardrobe expectations, stating, "Emily has always professed her love for Runway and fashion, and continues to thrive in the industry. I yearn to witness her evolution through her attire."
Filming for "The Devil Wears Prada 2," scheduled for a grand premiere on May 1, 2026, commenced in the bustling Big Apple on July 21. Anne Hathaway, who portrays Emily's former adversary-turned-ally Andy Sachs, tantalized fans at the onset of production by posting a TikTok video donning her character's iconic cerulean sweater. Subsequently, she was spotted speeding through the streets of New York in a black-and-white pinstriped vest and trousers from Jean Paul Gaultier, mirroring Blunt's ensemble with remarkable similarity.
Meryl Streep, who brings to life the formidable Runway editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, was first seen on set last Wednesday, enveloped in a beige Lanvin coat, accompanied by a purple silk blouse and a cognac-colored Gabriela Hearst leather pencil skirt. Stanley Tucci has also been spotted on set, reprising his role as Nigel with the same panache. If these initial fashion forays are any harbinger, the film promises an abundance of luxurious fashion moments that will captivate audiences.
