Andy Sachs: Can you please spell 'Gabbana'?
(person on the other line hangs up)
Andy Sachs: Guess not...
- Anna Wintour, the supposed inspiration for Miranda Priestly, reportedly really liked the film despite initial skepticism. She enjoyed Meryl Streep for her "decisive nature".
- Six years after Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt first worked together on this movie, Tucci married Blunt's sister Felicity. Emily was a bridesmaid; neither the bride nor the groom wore Prada.
- Anna Wintour, the powerful Vogue editor on whom Meryl Streep's character was widely believed to be based in the novel (Lauren Weisberger once worked as her assistant), reportedly warned major fashion designers who had been invited to make cameo appearances as themselves in the film that they would be banished from the magazine's pages if they did so. Wintour's spokespeople deny this claim; however, it is notable that Vogue and other major women's and fashion magazines have avoided reviewing or even mentioning the book in their pages.
- Meryl Streep's daughter, Mamie Gummer, played a Starbucks clerk, but her scene was cut for pacing.
- Runway is a fictitious version of Vogue.
