On this special episode of the SheerLuxe Podcast, we sit down with legendary costume designer Molly Rogers – protégé of Patricia Field and the creative force behind some of fashion’s most iconic on-screen moments. From ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ to its highly anticipated sequel, Molly shares an insider’s look at the thinking behind the wardrobes that have defined a generation.
What was it like revisiting these beloved characters? How do you balance timeless style with modern fashion? And what really goes into dressing legends like Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt?
From Miranda Priestly’s power tailoring to Emily’s more daring looks, Molly reveals the stories behind standout outfits, the pressure of living up to a cult classic and why this sequel won’t feel trend-led.
