Anne Hathaway, reprising her role as Andy Sachs, turned heads in a grey sweater dress accented by a striking brown fur peplum. She paired the outfit with red heels, echoing the film’s iconic color scheme.

Simone Ashley, debuting as Miranda’s first assistant Amari, highlighted her legs in a grey sweater matched with a flowing pink mini skirt.

Stanley Tucci, returning as Nigel Kipling, opted for a sharp grey waistcoat and chinos. Caleb Hearon, playing second assistant Charlie, stood out in a vibrant pink shirt complemented by a blue striped tie.

The European premiere took place Wednesday night at Leicester Square, followed by a gala reception at the National Portrait Gallery. The sequel, set 20 years after the original, follows Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) as she battles the decline of print media and clashes with Emily (Emily Blunt), now a key advertising executive. Andy Sachs returns to Runway to rescue the magazine, with action spanning New York to Milan.

New additions to the cast include Justin Theroux, Kenneth Branagh, and Lucy Liu.
