Wickedly Hilarious!!!

The Devil Wears Prada

The Movie aired in 2006 and I think it is one of the Best Fashion Movies of all time. All the women could barely contain their excitement as several designer pieces floated on the screen.

The story is about a young lady starting a career in the fashion industry. Although she only aspires to be a fashion writer, she is quickly drawn into the wonderful, yet treacherous fashion world.

Andy Sachs(Anne Hathaway) receives a make over because she looks uncool with the clothes she wears. Her style evolves from geeky/lousy to stylish/trendy everyday attire that consist of Chanel jackets and boots. Don’t we get too excited while watching the movie and look at all their fabulous clothes?

I never dreamed being involved in any field in fashion. I could still recall the first time I saw this movie and I was mesmerized with all the luxurious brands worn by the characters. I just became more and more curious about the life behind fashion. Now, I am also given the chance to write about one of the coolest fashion movie of all time.

Over all, The Devil Wears Prada production costumes are a blast!

Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, the terrible boss of Andy. She delivers a wicked but funny role. She wears a very stylish fur coat in this scene.

Below is another type of coat worn by Anne Hathaway in the film.

There are different types of cloaks for every era. But the Fur Coat could have evolved from the Victorian Era (1850’s) where there’s (1)Caped Redingote (2)Short Cashmere Cape and Fur Trim (1857)

(3)Late 1850’s Cloaks Copy of the Petit Courier des Dames.

Since Fur Coats are worn mainly during winter or autumn, they are always on the PEAK of the Trend Cycle Chart. Fur coats are considered necessity because they serve as protection during the cold weather. Most of the stylish coats are worn by the high society, but even the middle class could wear it so in the Fashion Leadership, I think it is Trickle-Across.

On the picture below, Emily Blunt wears Punk outfit in the film.

Punk Fashion is the clothing, hairstyles, cosmetics, jewelry, and body modifications of punk subculture. The punk subculture is a subculture based around punk rock including music, ideologies, fashion, visual art, dance, literature and film. The punk subculture came out in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia in the mid-1970s. Exactly which region started punk has long been a major controversy within the movement.

For punks out there, Punk Fashion is the best way to express themselves. For those who would like a change in image, a punk outfit is just right to look a bit like a punk even for once in a while. For rock stars of our generation, punk is their sense of style. This means that punk could be adopted by any style, by any person who wants a change. This style could always be at the PEAK of the Trend Cycle Chart because punks are everywhere and they are accepted even in the conservative Philippine culture. Mostly, Designers, Artists, and Rock Stars influence this trend to the public so this is in the Trickle Down Theory.
