While the world watches the Artemis II crew return from the lunar far side, another legendary duo is making waves right here on Earth.
Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway have officially landed in Tokyo for the latest stop of their global The Devil Wears Prada 2 press tour. In what fashion insiders are calling a “masterclass in method dressing,” the pair turned the Japanese capital into their own personal runway ahead of the film’s May 1, 2026 release.
1. The Tokyo Fan Event: “Cerulean” Redux
At the Tokyo photocall held on April 6-7, the chemistry that defined the 2006 original was on full display.
- Meryl Streep: Styled by Micaela Erlanger, Meryl channeled the “quiet power” of Miranda Priestly in a striking all-red ensemble from the Chanel Métiers d’Art 2026 collection. The look featured a red coat and midi skirt accented with graphic white “splotches” a clever nod to the iconic red pump from the original movie poster.
- Anne Hathaway: Anne leaned into the “Andy Sachs 2.0” aesthetic with a black-and-white look from Maison Valentino, paired with Bvlgari high jewelry. Her styling included a sleek high ponytail and blunt bangs, signaling a return to her character’s post-makeover transformation.
2. The “Mushroom Boost” & Paddock Ties
In a move that links back to the F1 buzz we’ve been tracking, Anne Hathaway was spotted in an off-the-shoulder Sacai knit in a specific shade of lapis blue fans immediately clocked it as a tribute to the “lumpy cerulean sweater” Meryl wore on Colbert just days prior.
This “blue era” is currently trending across Japan, coinciding with the Ferrari team’s presence in Tokyo for the GP, proving that whether it’s a Scuderia wing or a couture skirt, Cerulean is the color of 2026.
3. The Devil Wears Prada 2: What We Know
During the Tokyo Q&A, the duo shared a few hints about the sequel’s plot:
- The Conflict: Miranda Priestly’s career is in decline as traditional print media fades. She is forced to go face-to-face with Emily (Emily Blunt), who is now a high-level executive at a luxury group holding the advertising dollars Miranda desperately needs.
- The Soundtrack: The final theatrical trailer released during the Japan stop features a new original track, “Runway,” performed by Lady Gaga and Doechii.
