Anne Hathaway's most iconic looks on and off the red carpet

While we might not forgive the Princess Diaries for attempting to persuade us that Anne Hathaway lacked inherent princess-worthy qualities before her grand Cinderella transformation, her most striking style evolution isn't showcased in any of her film roles, but rather on the red carpets today.

Now, the once-reigning princess of 2000's chick flicks is set to resume her throne, with the news that she'll revive the beloved Mia Thermopolis in a long-awaited Princess Diaries 3. Of course, behind every Princess stands a fairy godmother, and for Hathaway, it's her current stylist Erin Walsh. Having previously worked with Law Roach, it became evident that his avant-garde approach didn't quite align with Hathaway's essence. But since since joining forces with Walsh in 2022, the duo have consistently delivered sartorial perfection with each and every appearance.

Since finding her sartorial groove, Hathaway has become a force to be reckoned with on the red carpet and beyond. She's even embodied arguably her most fashionable on-screen counterpart, The Devil Wears Prada's Andy Sachs. Perched next to Anna Wintour (aka the real-life Miranda Priestly) at the Michael Kors Spring/Summer '23 show, the actress donned bangs and brown leather, in a look (seemingly) plucked straight from the movie. And for that, Erin Walsh, we salute you.

In honour of her impending return to royal duties, we're rounding up some of Anne Hathaway's best looks, both on and off the screen.
