No one could ever forget Meryl Streep played the uncompromising Miranda Priestly, editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine Runway in The Devil Wears Prada.
Emblem of a generation, the 2006 comedy directed by David Frankel is now getting a highly anticipated sequel, with many paparazzi images raining down on social media over the summer. While the new film is not expected to see the light of day until next spring, its stars have been having fun making a few nods to it during their public appearances.
The latest example occurred during the Dolce & Gabbana spring/summer 2026 show held during Milan Fashion Week. In Vogue’s video from the show, Streep and her costar Stanley Tucci practically re-enacted a scene fromThe Devil Wears Prada in the front row.
Accompanied by her on-screen sidekick, who was also a guest at the Italian fashion house’s show, Meryl Streep was dressed like a fashion icon, immediately reminding us of the film’s glamorous, if tyrannical, editor-in-chief. Her outfit had everything Miranda Priestly would wear on-screen: a nude patent trench coat—which strongly resembles the one seen during filming in New York—worn closed and belted at the waist, revealing only the bottom of black pants and sober pumps.
As for accessories, Streep’s sunglasses and a leopard-print clutch were enough to elevate the whole look—especially when accompanying a certain hairstyle. Yes, Miranda Priestly’s signature silver mane did not go unnoticed. You can see the video here.
With Tucci by her side, the front row of the Dolce & Gabbana show could easily have been mistaken for a scene from The Devil Wears Prada. But was it? Well, everything suggests that the production has, indeed, made Milan Fashion Week its new stage. Surrounded by her colleague—whose three-piece gray suit and leopard scarf were apparently approved by Nigel himself—and fellow cast member Simone Ashley, Meryl Streep seems to have truly fallen back into character.
