Summary
One of the first things costume designer Molly Rogers thought about after she finished reading the script for the Devil Wears Prada 2: Where was Andy’s blue cerulean sweater?
“It was the first phone call I made to the archives out at the studio,” says Rogers, who spoke to Alice Newbold, Fashion Features & News Director, British Vogue.
“Stuff disappears. You finish a movie, all of the clothes go to the lot where other productions can rent them.” says Rogers. But she was able to secure the original sweater, “and it still had the corn chowder stain on it.”
Rogers says it was Anne Hathaway who grabbed the scissors and made the alterations to turn the beloved sweater into a vest.
Rogers shares all the secrets behind the film's biggest fashion moments, including those rock stud pumps. Plus, Chloe and Nicole talk Met Gala prep, the new Victoria Beckham and Gap collaboration, and Cecilie Bahnsen's Uniqlo collab.

| 0:00.0 | This is the run-through. |
| 0:10.0 | I'm Chloe Mal, and today I'm here in the studio with our wonderful co-host, Nicole Phelps. |
| 0:16.6 | Hi, Chloe. |
| 0:18.2 | Nicole, it's a big week. |
| 0:19.6 | I feel like basically since I got back from spring break, |
| 0:24.0 | the end of March, we've been in sort of a full court sprint towards the Met Gala. And it's just, |
| 0:31.2 | it also is very robust event season in New York City. I feel like everyone's come out of winter |
| 0:36.5 | hibernation. Even though the temps remain chilly. The temps do remain chilly. But we're starting to see our |
| 0:41.7 | gala season is commenced. I went to the black tie Tiffany gala last week. And I was like, |
| 0:47.1 | ooh, having to like multiple black tie dress codes is, it's a tall order. But we want to talk |
| 0:53.8 | about the devil wears Prada too. You were at the premiere. |
| 0:58.4 | I was. And we have Molly Rogers, the costume designer, on the show this week. She and Alice |
| 1:03.6 | Newbold, Executive Fashion News and Features editor at Vogue, UK, are on the podcast later this episode. And I am very intrigued to hear what you |
| 1:13.4 | say, because the costumes are wacky. That quote, was it Merrill who gave it from the first |
| 1:19.4 | film that they couldn't work with fashion labels because people were afraid to loan them |
| 1:25.6 | clothes because of offending Anna at the time. And I guess this |
| 1:30.4 | time was a completely different story. That is not the case now. You really see everyone. |
| 1:35.1 | There's a lot of designer cameos in the movie, Mark Jacobs, Donatello Versace, Domenicoe |
| 1:40.6 | Dolce. So there's certainly a different approach. But yes, the costumes are eye-catching. |
| 1:49.9 | Were you at the Dolce and Gabana show? I was not. When Miranda Priestley walked in? |
| 1:55.1 | No, but there are big overhead shots of that. And I was hoping that they would do sort of a wink and pan to Anna across the |
| 2:03.0 | catwalk, but they did not. That was a very meta moment for all of us. Yes. No, that features |
