About The Devil Wears Prada book and film 

Lauren Weisberger’s smash-hit novel was published in 2003 to critical acclaim. The glitzy tale was inspired by Weisberger's personal experiences working as an assistant to Anna Wintour, the legendary editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine. What resulted was a satirical glimpse into the fashion industry itself and the high-end fashion magazine world…with all of its ruthless and demanding quirks, and beautiful outfits of course.

In 2006, the novel was given new life and was adapted into a film of the same name, which has designed its own legacy. Directed by David Frankel. The movie starred Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly and Anne Hathaway as Andrea Sachs. Meryl Streep's portrayal of the ruthless and iconic Miranda Priestly earned her critical adoration (and an Academy Award nomination, no biggie!).
