If you’ve been on Twitter recently, you’ve probably seen countless debates on who the “true villain” is in The Devil Wears Prada. Regardless of that, the 2006 film turns 15 years-old today. The fashion-forward movie made splashes with a star studded cast of Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway and has left an impression on wide-eyed fashion interns ever since.
Arguably a precursor to the newly-released Cruella, The Devil Wears Prada is a camp classic that truly displayed the condition of working in the fashion industry. The demanding boss, Miranda Priestly (played by Meryl Streep) wears the pants in the dynamic with her somewhat naive assistant Andy Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway). The legacy of this movie results in one of the most quotable pieces of cinema ever made. Here are just a few that I may or may not use in my day-to-day repertoire.
1.) “Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking.”
2.) “Is there a reason that my coffee isn’t here? Has she died or something?”
3.) “By all means, move at a glacial pace. You know how that thrills me.”
4.) “Details of your incompetence do not interest me.”
5.) “All right everyone! Gird your loins.”
6.) “Everybody wants to be us.”
7.) “Please, bore someone else with your questions.”
8.) “You have no style or sense of fashion.”
9.) “Truth is, no one can do what I do.”
10.) “That’s all”
