Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway attended the ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ gala in London. Hathaway wore a striped strapless Louis Vuitton dress, while Blunt opted for a sheer black minidress. Both looks incorporated elements seen on the Spring/Summer 2026 runways.
Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway didn’t stop at just one look at London. After walking the red carpet at the ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ premiere, both actresses changed into their second outfits for that evening’s ‘A Night on the Runway’ gala. Each took a different runway-driven approach to eveningwear while continuing to complement it with matching black looks.
Hathaway’s gala dress was a strapless black and gray striped Louis Vuitton gown. The bodice was fitted with a sweetheart neckline, and the skirt flared into a dramatic, sculptural overskirt layered over a slim base. She kept her styling minimal, finishing her outfit with black pointed-toe heels and a diamond Bvlgari choker.
Stripes have been prominent on recent runways, so it’s a strong choice. Designers like Dries Van Noten and Dolce & Gabbana are incorporating this bold pattern into their Spring/Summer 2026 collections.

Meanwhile, Blunt changed into a sheer minidress with long sleeves, a fitted bodice and subtle volume at the hips. Styled with sheer tights and platform heels, the look focused on texture rather than print.
Sheer fabrics continue to evolve this season, with designers like Chanel, Valentino and Tory Burch leaning into layered, more wearable interpretations. Blunt’s costumes follow that direction, balancing transparency and structure.

Blunt and Hathaway’s appearances come as the cast continues their global press tour for the highly anticipated sequel. The two stars started the week together in New York City, having a dramatic fashion moment at the film’s world premiere, with both wearing voluminous dresses.
