Meryl Streep Revisits Her Iconic 'Devil Wears Prada' Monologue in a Cerulean Blue J.Crew Sweater

Meryl Streep wore a cerulean blue sweater on 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' as an homage to The Devil Wears Prada.

Meryl Streep delivered too many iconic moments to count in The Devil Wears Prada, but one monologue deserved a custom J.Crew sweater on the sequel's press tour. "That sweater is not just blue, it's not just turquoise, it's not lapis. It's actually cerulean," Miranda Priestly says to Anne Hathaway's Andy Sachs, when she scoffs at the difference between two shades of blue. 20 years later, Streep styled the history-making sweater herself on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

Miranda may have called Andy's sweater "lumpy" in the 2006 cult-classic, but it seems Streep has a soft spot for the silhouette. Stylist Micaela Erlanger created a custom, almost-identical sweater with J.Crew, down to the vertical cable-knit stitching. Instead of stacking the not-quite cobalt, not-quite lapis style over a baby blue button-down like Hathaway's character, Streep wore it solo. The Oscar winner also traded Andy's plaid midi skirt for black trousers and loafer heels.
