In the mid-aughts, America became obsessed with high fashion for some reason. Maybe it was Project Runway's silver-haired imp Tim Gunn whispering in our ears to “make it work.” Maybe we were all bewitched by the well-dressed ladies of Sex and the City. But Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo were suddenly household names. Enter Meryl Streep as the boss from Hell: Miranda Priestly, the editor-in-chief of Runway magazine. She's bringing the fire and brimstone of haute couture to torture her new assistant, played by a fresh-faced Anne Hathaway, in this 2006 comedy written by Aline Brosh McKenna from the novel by Lauren Weisberger. The film was a massive hit, won multiple awards, and scored Oscar noms for Streep and costume designer Patricia Field, who reportedly spent over $1 million to clothe the cast. But does this Runway project make it work? Or does it seem as gauche and dated as last season's trends? They say the devil is in the details, and this time, The Devil Wears Prada.

Over the years, Susie has kept watching the 2006 modern classic The Devil Wears Prada, and she's noticed a funny thing happen. Where once she (obviously!) identified with the put-upon lead, Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway), time and life have shown her that maybe Miranda Preistly (Meryl Streep) wasn't such a devil after all.Plus...it's #MaxFunDrive!

You may be sitting at your computer in sweats right now. But it doesn't mean B2B marketers like yourself aren't fashion conscious. There's actually a lot the fashion industry can teach us about marketing.You were likely marketed those sweatpants. So think about what made you want them. Why did you buy from that particular company? And what was the deciding factor that made you purchase them?It's likely the company understood their industry, personalized their message, and created original content. Those are a few of the things we're talking about today with Edgio's Director of Corporate Communications, Brand and Strategic Content, Sally Winship Comollo. Together, we're looking at B2B marketing lessons from The Devil Wears Prada. So put on your Chanel boots (they'll go great with your sweats) for this episode of Remarkable.About our guest, Sally Winship ComolloSally Winship Comollo is Director of Corporate Communications at Edgio. There, she leads the development and execution of strategic content and communications programs that drive awareness for the company's innovative edge platform.

About EdgioEdgio is a globally scaled edge-enabled software solutions provider that helps companies deliver extraordinary digital experiences — faster websites, more responsive applications, the highest quality streaming, and more consistent game and software downloads, to any device.About The Devil Wears PradaThe Devil Wears Prada is about new college grad Andy Sachs who lands a job at a prestigious fashion magazine in New York City, working as an assistant to the editor. It stars Anne Hathaway as Andrea “Andy” Sachs, Meryl Streep as the editor, Miranda Priestly, Stanley Tucci as art director Nigel Kipling, and Emily Blunt as Miranda's other assistant. The movie came out in 2006 and is based on the book by Lauren Weisberger. It was directed by David Frankel and produced by Wendy Finerman. The screenplay was written by Aline Brosh McKenna. The book was inspired by Lauren Weisberger's experience as an assistant to Vogue editor Anna Wintour.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Devil Wears Prada: Know and understand your industry. As Andy is just learning about the fashion industry, she makes an offhand comment about clothing being “stuff.” Miranda Priestly is quick to remind Andy that she is, in fact, the target audience for that “stuff.” Miranda points out that Andy is wearing a cerulean sweater, a color blue made popular by the fashion industry. So knowing your industry means being able to make the discerning and nuanced choices that will speak more effectively to your target audience. So your message resonates with them above all others. You'll even be so effective, your audience won't even know they're being influenced by your “stuff.”Personalize your message. Andy memorizes the guest list for the Met Gala so she can be Miranda's reference when meeting them. So Miranda was able to personalize her greeting for each person. This small but critical tip is something we can apply to marketing. Sally says, “How do you personalize your message for your different customer segments or your different stakeholders?” You want each customer or each stakeholder to feel important and like they matter to your business. Personalization is a simple yet effective way to do that.Be agile. As Miranda says, “By all means, move at a glacial pace. You know how that thrills me.” Marketers have to be moving quickly and working to stay ahead of the every-changing industry landscape. Ian says, “Just pacing in general is really important. How quickly you're doing sprints or project delivery, whether or not something is good enough to go out, versus how long you spend on it. Like that, to me, is the hardest part of marketing, is ‘How much time do you spend on the thing?'”Create original content. In other words, don't recommend florals for your spring line of clothing. As Miranda says, “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” It cuts to the core. Sally says when it comes to B2B marketing, “How do you break away from things that may seem easy? Like, ‘Oh, everybody's doing video now, so let's do video'. Well, video might not work for your audience, or how do you make videos, but better?” So don't follow the crowd, but fashion your own content.Quotes*”Our sales team is going through a very similar transition from just selling solutions or selling the product to value-based solution selling and transparent selling. So being honest about what we can do for them and what we can't do for them. Because that creates that trusted advisor type of role. Our marketing is mimicking that. So not just creating content that shows the value that we bring to the customer, but then also creating content that's valuable to the potential customer.” - Sally Winship Comollo*”Ultimately, the intangible ways of tracking ROI are also important. With analyst relations, when you get to the point where analysts come to you and say, ‘Hey, we've got a report coming out on edge platforms and we want you to be in it,' Then that to me shows that what we're doing is working.” - Sally Winship ComolloTime Stamps[0:55] Meet Sally Winship Comollo, Director of Corporate Communications, Brand and Strategic Content at Edgio[1:48] Why are we talking about The Devil Wears Prada?[2:48] What does Sally do at Edgio?[3:31] What's The Devil Wears Prada about?[6:59] Why is The Devil Wears Prada remarkable?[13:52] What can Miranda Priestly teach us about leadership?[19:19] What B2B marketing lessons can we take away from The Devil Wears Prada?[23:18] What's Sally's content strategy at Edgio?[28:49] How does Sally prove the ROI of content?[33:49] What advice would Sally give others in content marketing?LinksWatch The Devil Wears PradaConnect with Sally on LinkedInLearn more about EdgioAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

A theatrical adaptation of the novel was presented at Seattle's Book-It Repertory Theatre in 2007.[13][14] The novel has also been adapted for the theater in a version written by Caridad Svich, which was commissioned by Repertorio Espanol in New York City. That adaptation premiered in 2009 and received the HOLA Award for Outstanding Achievement in Playwriting from the Hispanic Organization of Latin Actors. Unlike the film and the previous adaptation, this version was written and performed in Spanish and has been staged in Latin American countries such as Chile and Costa Rica.[15] Svich also wrote an English language version of the play which won the 2011 American Theatre Critics Association Primus Prize for its production at Denver Center Theatre Company in 2010.[16] On May 23, 2018, it was announced that Hulu was developing a television series adaptation of the novel with production company FilmNation Entertainment. Allende is expected to serve as an executive producer on the project.[17] On October 19, 2021, it was announced that Eva Longoria would star in the project.[18]
WX+: jessica66001,卡卡送你一份学习大礼包更多卡卡老师福利公号:卡卡课堂近日,安妮海瑟薇出席活动,40岁的状态引发网友热议。不得不说海瑟薇这40岁的状态也太好了,尤其是对于生过两娃的白种人来说更不容易,这身材这颜值真的一点也看不出来是40岁,笑起来好治愈好美,爱了爱了,这种礼服颜色都能轻松hold住,好飒好美!永远的女神,无论什么年龄都美得不像话!她因为过于完美而遭人诋毁,好莱坞“公主”安妮海瑟薇真是惊艳了时光的存在。《爱丽丝梦游仙境》《穿普拉达的女王》《公主日记》《蝙蝠侠》等等。让我印象最深刻的,是她的《穿普拉达的女王》。影片《穿普拉达的女王》是根据劳伦·魏丝伯格(Lauren Weisberger)的同名小说改编而成,由大卫·弗兰科尔执导,梅丽尔·斯特里普,安妮·海瑟薇和艾米莉·布朗特联袂出演。影片于2006年6月30日在美国上映。影片讲述一个刚离开校门的女大学生,进入了一家顶级时尚杂志社当主编助理的故事,她从初入职场的迷惑到从自身出发寻找问题的根源最后成为了一个出色的职场与时尚的达人。很多人都说,《穿普拉达的女王》是一本时尚教科书。影片中,通过女主的职场经历,我们不仅仅看到在时尚界她的蜕变,更看到的是,这部电影中,不同的人对于“时尚”的理解。那什么是“时尚“呢?今天节目中,我们分享一句来自于美版《Marie Claire》杂志的时装总监Nina Garcia说过的话。Quote to learn for today“If you look back in history of the women who are most memorable and most stylish, they were never the followers of fashion. They were the ones who were unique in their style, breakers of the rules. They were authentic, genuine, original. They were not following the trends.”– Nina Garcia翻译“如果你回顾历史上最令人难忘、最时尚的女性,她们从来都不是时尚的追随者。她们的风格独特,打破了规则。她们真实、真诚、原创。她们没有追随潮流。”-尼娜·加西亚It was a memorable experience for him.这是让他难忘的一次经历。中翻英:它们必须得看上去像真的。They have to look authentic.

Lauren Weisberger, the New York Times bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada, talks to Carol Fitzgerald about her newest novel, Where the Grass is Green and the Girls Are Pretty. In Where the Grass is Green and the Girls Are Pretty, Peyton thinks she has it all as an anchor of a beloved morning show, with celebrity status and enough money for her family to enjoy life. Her daughter is bound for Princeton and ready to follow her filmmaking dreams. Peyton's sister, Skye, lives a modest life and longs to do more with her career. She is making great strides on a fundraiser and feels some fulfillment outside her role as a stay-at-home mother. One lie is all it takes to unravel the careful plans that they all have in place. Lauren channeled her close relationship with her sister as she wrote the novel. She talks about how far she was in her early draft before realizing she'd have to start over with a different approach, while hoping for the men characters to be nice guys instead of villains. She talks about her women characters and how their agency involves them making their own choices. They also discuss what's next for Lauren: in books and on stage. She's currently excited about the upcoming stage adaptation of The Devil Wears Prada, which she's been working on with Kevin McCollum and Elton John, with Elton writing all the music.

Andrea Sachs, a recent graduate of Brown University with a degree in English, moves to New York City with her best friend, Lily, a graduate student at Columbia. Andrea hopes to find a career in publishing and blankets the city with her résumé. She believes she'll be closer to her dream of working for The New Yorker if she can get a job in the magazine industry. She gets a surprise interview at the Elias-Clark Group and is hired as a junior assistant for Miranda Priestly, editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine Runway. Although she knows little of the fashion world, everyone tells her that "a million girls would die for [her] job." If she manages to work for Miranda for a year, people tell her, she can have her choice of jobs within the magazine industry.

We take a look at the cult classic comedy The Devil Wears Prada, directed by David Frankel in 2006, and the novel it was based on by Lauren Weisberger. We discuss the challenges of first jobs, the real life inspirations of the story, and every glorious line that comes out of Meryl Streep's mouth.
Join Wendy and Amy for a special bonus episode of Lauren Weisberger's When Life Gives You Lululemons when they break out some brandy slushes and give an English class breakdown to this super fun beach read. You don't want to miss the fun!
Today we are reviewing The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger. Krysta rants about the fashion industry and how weight is perceived. Jessica has a mini rant about Starbucks lattes, and we drink Cosmopolitans. In the words of Miranda Priestly, "That's all."
We deep dive into this iconic movie, an eminently rewatchable cultural phenomenon with not one, but two, complicated and strong female leads played by the brilliant Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway. *** We travel back to 2006 when the movie came out, discussing how it got made, how it differs from the book, and how Meryl played hard ball on her salary. (2:15) *** The Devil Wears Prada fought a lot of blockbuster movies to ultimately win the zeitgeist wars, but does it still hold up? Does it feel dated? Or maybe anti-feminist? Kate raises the oft-mentioned criticisms of the movie. (12:10) *** Complicated Woman Rating - Miranda Priestly, one of the best villains in movie history, is someone to be equally feared and revered. Would we feel differently if Miranda was a man? (23:33) *** Complicated Woman Rating - Andy is our heroine and clearly her journey drives the story, but Carinn wants to see more plucky and scrappy and less whining. What Andy lacks, though, Emily (played by breakout star Emily Blunt) makes up for with her hard-driving pursuit of her dreams. (35:55) *** Scenes - Carinn loves the scene where Nigel (Stanley Tucci) gives Andy a wake up call -- you are not trying, you're whining -- which finally causes Andy to change on the inside and the outside, ultimately letting us see the scrappy side of Andy (43:00); Kate has to bring us back to the iconic “cerulean blue sweater” scene where Miranda puts Andy in her place and reminds her of the domino effect of her influence (47:21); Carinn can’t believe how good the clothing montage is and how the fashion still holds up over time (51:24); Kate talks about Meryl’s vulnerable scene in the hotel room where we get a glimpse of the woman in the business woman and the brilliant writing of this screenplay really shines (52:30); Carinn discusses when Andy tries to warn Miranda about the coup for her job and how Miranda’s response subverts our expectations in the best way (56:40); Kate ends with Andy and Miranda’s heart-to-heart in the car in Paris where Miranda gives Andy a dose of reality, causing us to examine what ambition really means. (58:28) *** What She Said on screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna. She's a fire sign like DWP author Lauren Weisberger -- and the ladies of Pop Fiction Women! Kate shares a conversation McKenna had with Nora Ephron about making it as a woman filmmaker. Carinn highlights a quote about female anti heroes and how the final frontier is for women to get to be an asshole. (63:11) *** Takeaways. Carinn is focused on success and what that means: commercial success or cultural impact and creatively meaningful? Kate loves Meryl’s inspiration for Miranda Priestly -- the low but commanding voice of Clint Eastwood -- and wonders whether she could employ that in her day-to-day professional life.

Kicking off Year 2 Holly and Jules take on The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger, a classic and widely popular chic lit, with the special treat of our guest host Mike (Pop Culture Role Call)!
Gird your loins! This week wrestling podcaster and author of the I HEART series Lindsey Kelk is here to relive all your worst memories of being an entry level employee. We're talking about Lauren Weisberger's debut THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, a book that we will readily admit is not as good as the film. We discuss unlikable heroines, memoir vs fiction, the hideousness of first jobs, dragon ladies, the profound whiteness of the "girl in the city" narrative and the benefits of 'throwing the teddy in the crash'. Artwork by Gavin Day, music by Harry Harris, produced by Caroline O'Donoghue and mixed by Hannah Varrall. Recorded at ACAST Studios London. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
It’s the birthday of novelist Lauren Weisberger (1977), who turned her experience as assistant to Vogue editor-in-chief into the book “The Devil Wears Prada.”
Editor and former literary agent Amy Tipton and I discuss her career in publishing and her approach to editing. We chat about her time representing Courtney Summers, Amy Reed, and many other famous YA authors and I thank her for a crucial note she gave me when I was revising Banneker Bones and the Giant Robot Bees. She shares her philosophy of revision, the new services she's offering through Feral Girl Books, the most common mistakes writers make, and much, much more. In her own words: I graduated from Naropa University with a B.A. in Writing and Literature and received my MFA from New College of California in Writing. I have been working in the publishing industry for 13 years and started freelance editing in 2018. Prior to that, I was a literary agent at Signature Literary Agency since 2009. (I first stepped into the role of literary agent at Peter Rubie Literary Agency, now FinePrint Literary Management, in 2007.) I started out as an assistant and office manager at several agencies including JCA Literary Agency, Diana Finch Literary Agency, Gina Maccoby Literary Agency, and Liza Dawson Associates, as a book scout for Aram Fox, Inc., and as a freelance editor for Lauren Weisberger (author of The Devil Wears Prada). My years of experience culling books from the slush pile give me confidence I can help you too! (Not just a service for those looking for an agent … Maybe you already have an agent but they are less editorial-minded and you are going on sub or got an RR from an editor … Maybe you’re self-publishing … Whatever the situation, consider me your professional CP! ) www.middlegradeninja.com amy-tipton.com

Welcome back to Looks and Books with Cat & Olly! Gird your loins everyone because today's episode is a doozy: that's right, we're discussing all things The Devil Wears Prada! ...The film, not the book. Yet. We'll get to that. Join us for a very special episode of Looks and The Book (you know, the one that should be left on the table wth the flowers) as we sit down and watch one of our favourite films of all time... with only a few technical difficulties and pedantic criticisms along the way. We hope you enjoy! DON'T FORGET that the book we'll be discussing in next week's 'Reading Is Fundamental' bookclub is The Devil Wears Prada (obviously) by Lauren Weisberger! Be sure to join in and share your thoughts, and by all means, move at a glacial pace - you know how that thrills us.

There is very little I love more than getting away. For anyone who loves to escape, this is your episode. Stephanie Rosenbloom and I talk about Alone Time, her book on solo travel. Through the four seasons, she travels to four cities (including her hometown for a staycation) and shares what she finds by traveling alone. As a fan of solo travel as much as I am of exploring with others, I was enchanted. Anyone who wants to travel to write must listen. And then, Lauren Weisberger talks about the wild and crazy world of the uber wealthy in Connecticut that she explored in When Life Gives You Lululemons, the third book in the Devil Wears Prada world, where we follow the first assistant to Miranda Priestly, Emily Charlton ten years after the end of DWP. It's such a fun book, and our conversation was a total delight. Enjoy a diverting listen this week and then have some fun writing about the world away from your doorstep.
