Background

Series Context: The Devil Wears Prada Universe

When Life Gives You Lululemons is the third installment in Weisberger’s The Devil Wears Prada universe, which begins with The Devil Wears Prada, followed by Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns. The Devil Wears Prada was an instant New York Times bestseller when it was published in 2003. Based on Weisberger’s personal experiences working for Anna Wintour at Vogue magazine, the novel exposed the toxic and hypocritical culture of the fashion industry. Much of the industry responded adversely to Weisberger’s fictionalization of Wintour as the terrifying, cold-hearted Miranda Priestley. However, these critiques did not harm the success and popularity of Weisberger’s title. The Devil Wears Prada has sold millions of copies worldwide and been translated into dozens of languages. In 2006, the story was also adapted into a film starring Anne Hathaway (as Andy Sachs), Meryl Streep (as Miranda Priestley), and Emily Blunt (as Emily Charlton). The novel was also more recently adapted into a musical, composed by Elton John.


The Devil Wears Prada follows the protagonist Andrea (Andy) Sachs’s attempts to establish herself as a writer in New York City.
