Quite surprised at the success of “The Devil wears Prada”. According to reviews Meryl Streep gives a very impressive performance as Miranda Priestly, the boss from hell who’s said to bear a resemblance to US Vogue editor Anna Wintour. So much so that some designers were unwilling to lend their designs to the movie, for fear of getting on the wrong side of Ms Wintour.
“The Devil Wears Prada” is the first film to take a 21st-century view of fashion, moving beyond the myth of its practitioners as visionaries, revealing them instead as the exacting functionaries they are: those who live and dress and think according to the seasonal edicts of global conglomerates.” – ny times.com
