More than a decade later, the iconic movie still leaves an impact on us
Most movies leave you hours after exiting the theatre while a selective few remain timeless for years to come. The Devil Wears Prada
is one such iconic film. Deliciously snarky, high on glamour and dry
humour plus, steeped in fashion references, it's no wonder it's
massively loved. The movie released on 1st July, 2006 and continues to
be a choice fashion pick for many a movie night. As we celebrate 12
years of The Devil Wears Prada, here are 12 life lessons the movie left us with.1. Fashion Isn't Frivolous:
It can seem that way to someone outside the industry, but the fashion industry is much more than pretty pictures and fancy clothes. It is a trillion-dollar industry that impacts the economy in numerous ways; a number which is only going up.2. Do Your Groundwork:
Whatever industry you are a part of, make sure you know the facts, techniques and procedures of it at the back of your hand and if you don't, ask for help to understand it. In this day and age of the internet, not knowing anything (or asking the spelling of 'Gabbana') isn't a good enough excuse.
3. Confidence Is Key:
No matter how nervous you are about your presentation, remember to fake it till you make it. Projecting a smart, self-assured persona is half the battle won in most scenarios. Remember Miranda Priestly's elevator exit that left everyone awe-struck and intimidated? Exactly.
