Lauren Weisberger on igniting a scandal at Vogue

“She has not reached out to me and I have not reached out to her,” says Weisberger. “I left the company on good terms, and I’ve heard through the grapevine that she’s been supportive of me. I certainly don’t think she’s holding any grudge. I did reach out through someone once and she sent back word that everything was fine. I’m glad she knows that I don’t feel the need to apologise.” The musical, she hopes, will “put a smile on her face”, although Wintour is famously poker-faced.

“I don’t think the book would have been published if Anna hadn’t been the person she was,” she says. “And I don’t think the book would have done what it did if she hadn’t been the person she was. She was formidable then, and she’s formidable now. She’s a legend, and she’ll be a legend forever.”

Anna Wintour may not have commented on The Devil Wears Prada, the book that turned her into a household name, but author Lauren Weisberger believes that the film adaptation, particularly Meryl Streep’s portrayal of Miranda Priestly, elevated the character to another level. Weisberger also acknowledges the generational conflict and workplace dynamics portrayed in the story, which resonate with many who have experienced a challenging boss.

The book also touches on society’s narrow view of beauty and the pressure to conform to certain standards, particularly in the fashion industry. Weisberger reflects on the progress made in challenging these norms but acknowledges that there is still a premium placed on being thin.

Now a West End musical, The Devil Wears Prada offers a feel-good third act with a more energetic and irreverent tone, along with better fashion choices. Weisberger sees the musical as a joyful escape, especially needed in current times.

Looking back on her own experiences as a former assistant, Weisberger regrets not fully appreciating the opportunity to learn from someone as remarkable as Anna Wintour. Despite the challenges she faced, she acknowledges the valuable perspective she gained from those experiences.
