The mother-daughter duo commanded attention at the star-studded event, radiating elegance and style as they arrived at the National Portrait Gallery in London on Wednesday night.
A Glamorous Arrival
Stepping out of a black cab at the exclusive A-list bash, Amanda turned heads in a show-stopping strapless black gown that accentuated her incredible figure and flawless tan. With confidence and poise, she quickly adjusted her dress as she walked hand-in-hand with her daughter, both beaming with excitement.
Lexi, her doppelgänger in the making, stunned in a daring red lace see-through gown, complementing her mother’s chic look. The two couldn’t stop smiling, and their joy was contagious as they posed against the iconic backdrop, glowing like the true stars they are.

Red Carpet Magic
Before the gala, Amanda and Lexi shared precious moments on the red carpet at the European premiere of Devil Wears Prada 2 in Leicester Square. With the sun shining down, the pair lit up the carpet, with Amanda striking solo poses near the film’s iconic red heel, her confidence on full display.
Fans were quick to flood Amanda’s Instagram with adoring comments, praising the duo for their stunning looks. One fan commented, “Girls!!!! You look stunning,” while others gushed, “Absolutely stunning ladies!” It’s clear that the mother-daughter duo has become a new style sensation in their own right.
The Fashion Icons Shine
While Amanda and Lexi stole the spotlight, they weren’t the only fashion icons gracing the event. The stars of Devil Wears Prada 2 also made their mark on the night. Anne Hathaway, returning as the beloved Andy Sachs, turned heads in a dramatic black and silver striped strapless gown with a bold ruffled train. Emily Blunt, now an executive in the high-fashion world, dazzled in a sheer black minidress that flaunted her enviable figure.
However, it was the legendary Meryl Streep who truly stole the show. The iconic actress, who will reprise her role as Miranda Priestly, rocked a dazzling purple sequin jacket, breaking the ice with a wide smile—quite the departure from her famously icy character.
The stars couldn’t contain their laughter as they posed together for photographers, including Stanley Tucci, who kept things dapper in a smart navy blazer and black tie.
An Iconic Night
The Devil Wears Prada sequel is already creating a buzz ahead of its May release, with critics praising the film as “phenomenal.” Set against the backdrop of a changing fashion world, the plot will see Miranda Priestly navigating the decline of traditional print media while facing off with the ambitious Emily. The addition of fresh faces like Justin Theroux, Kenneth Branagh, and Lucy Liu is only adding to the anticipation.
The event was a celebration of everything that makes the Devil Wears Prada franchise an enduring cultural touchstone, and the night’s dazzling red carpet was a fitting reminder of its timeless influence on the fashion world. Fans eagerly await the May release, and based on the early reactions, it’s safe to say this sequel is bound to be just as iconic as its predecessor.
A Night to Remember
As the night continued with glittering conversations and unforgettable moments, it was clear that this gala will go down as one of the most talked-about events in recent memory. Amanda Holden and Lexi Hughes, together with the Devil Wears Prada 2 stars, have certainly set the bar for glamour and style, leaving fans and fashion lovers alike in awe.
