"It's not couture, it's business"
Friday. 09.01.2006
Yes. Together with the rest of the female population, I too, was finally able to watch the ultimate chic-flick of the year--or at least for the next six months.
“The Devil wears Prada” is a movie about a young graduate, Andrea Sachs who tries to make her way in the vicious world of fashion--doing the job that most girls would kill for--as an assistant to Runway Magazine’s fierce editor in chief Miranda Priestly.
Sure enough, like all the other girls in the cinema, I also couldn’t help myself from gushing over the gorgeous couture all throughout the movie. And perhaps, it would be a sin not to laud Meryl Streep with her depiction of Miranda Priestly’s character. Clearly, she was able to epitomize evil in the most chic and modish form. I think it would be fair to say that she actually snagged the entire movie off her younger co-actors. She made the character so believable that practically any body who would be given the chance to work for someone similar to her character, would do the same thing Andy did--that is, to satisfy Miranda’s each and every whim and just about sell their very soul to the devil herself.
