The Devil Wears Prada 2006 quotes

Miranda

Emily.... Emily?

Nigel

She means you.

Miranda

But that's not what I asked you, I couldn't have been clearer- There you are Emily, how many times do I have to scream your name?

Actually, it's Andy. [pause] My name is Andy... Andrea, but everyone calls me Andy.

Miranda

I need ten or fifteen skirts from Calvin Klein.

What kind of skirts do you-

Miranda

Please bore someone else with your questions. And make sure we have Pier 59 at 8am tomorrow, and remind Jocelyn I need to see a few of those satchels that Mark is doing in the pony, and then tell Simone I'll take Jackie if Maggie isn't available. Did Demarchelier confirm?

D-D-Demarchelier?

Miranda

Demarchelier. Get him on the phone.

O-Ok.

Miranda

And Emily...?

Yes?

Miranda

That's all.

My personal life is falling apart.

Nigel

That's what happens when you start doing well at work. Let me know when your entire life goes up in smoke, then it's time for a promotion.

Miranda Priestly

This... stuff? Oh... ok. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don't know, that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean. You're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves St. Laurent, wasn't it, who showed cerulean military jackets? And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. Then it filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and so it's sort of comical to me how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of stuff.

Emily Charlton

See, I'm on this new diet, well, I don't eat anything. And right before I feel I'm going to faint, I eat a cube of cheese. I'm one stomach flu away from my goal weight.

Emily, hi. No don't hang up. I've got a favour to ask you.

Emily

You have a favour to ask of me?

Yeah, the thing is I've got all these clothes from Paris and I don't have anywhere to put them so I was wondering if you could take them off my hands.

Emily

Well, it's a huge imposition. Of course I'll have to have them taken in, they'll drown me. But, very well. I suppose I could help you.

Thanks Emily. I appreciate it. (Hangs up).
Emily: (Smiling contemplatively and turning to the new girl sitting at Andrea's desk) You have some very large shoes to fill. I hope you realise that.

So, none of the girls here eat anything?

Nigel

Not since two became the new four and zero became the new two.

Well, I'm a six.

Nigel

Which is the new fourteen.

I'm looking to for Emily Charlton.

Emily

Andrea Sachs? Great. Human Resources certainly has an odd sense of humor.

What if I don't want this?

Miranda

Don't be silly. Everyone wants this. Everybody wants to be us.

Nigel

Alright everyone. Gird your loins!
