Anne Hathaway learned a thing or two about fashion from movie boss Miranda Priestly.
But like a true professional, she tries to make it her own.
On Monday night, she attended a Bvlgari event in a voluminous red silk moiré Valentino haute couture dress reminiscent of the dress worn by Meryl Streep as runway editor in the upcoming The Devil Wears Prada sequel.
Hathaway’s look featured a plunging neckline (perfect for her giant jewelry) and a cape-style back that flowed elegantly down her shoulders and back.
But Hathaway upped the drama for the event by wearing Bvlgari’s eye-catching Secret Garden necklace, pairing the look with a giant bejeweled necklace.
The colorful design, made of diamonds, emeralds, onyx, purple and pink sapphires, took 1,200 hours to assemble by hand.
The main stone is a pink-orange padparadscha sapphire from Sri Lanka that weighs a whopping 26.65 carats.
Hathaway chose a large but simple round-cut diamond stud for each ear. One had a diamond ring, and the other had a yellow gold ring with a cabochon-cut emerald in the center and a pink stone that looked like a ruby or pink sapphire, to match her necklace perfectly.
Photos taken by paparazzi on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 show Streep, wearing a red taffeta ball gown, filming her on-screen commentary for the annual Met Gala.
Priestley’s sculptural ballgown includes a belted waist and oversized off-the-shoulder neckline. She paired the look with $110,000 Jacob & Co. ruby and diamond earrings and rings from Farawan Menera and Briony Raymond.
However, Streep wasn’t too excited about returning to Cracker. In a recent interview, she lamented Priestley’s outfit, saying, “I almost got PTSD from wearing high heels for 16 weeks. I feel like I should have gotten the Medal of Freedom!”
