Anne Hathaway has entered a whole new era of fashion-forward dressing and is the center of attention at every event she attends.

Her decades-long career has put the 39-year-old actor in the spotlight. From her sweet Mia Thermopolis “Princess Diaries” days, to her assistant-turned-fashionista-turned-fashionista-turned-“The Devil Wears Prada” character Andy Sacks, to becoming an Oscar-winning star. Hathaway has made headlines on and off screen. And lately, she’s been doing just that with her own style choices.

Call it a fashion renaissance, or call it a terrific stylist like Erin Walsh, but Hathaway stands by.

“This is a really cool new chapter[for Hathaway]but she’s been working since she was 16, so she’s always had these extraordinary, ongoing, long-term designer relationships,” said Hathaway about Walsh, who has been working for three years, said by phone today. “I think she’s so amazing and inspiring on so many levels. He’s a role model…and that’s the kind of person I want to work with.”

Over the years, Hathaway has been seen in a gold caped gown by Ralph Lauren at the 2015 Met Gala, a white ensemble for a pregnant Oscar de la Renta at Amazon’s Museum of Love pop-up in 2019, and an atelier. We’ve had some incredible fashion moments, including another golden piece by . Versace showed off her baby bump at the 2020 Critics’ Choice Awards.

But earlier this year, Hathaway, who was promoting the period drama “Armageddon Time” and the Apple TV+ series “We Crashed,” could not stop talking, like her “Titantic” moment in Armani Privé at Cannes. Showed up with sparkles and a wardrobe. Accompanied by a 107.15 carat Bvlgari Mediterranean Reverie diamond and sapphire necklace. She also rocked the coastal granny look perfectly.

“It’s also clear that people are very excited about what’s happening to her when it comes to fashion,” Walsh said. So it resonates so strongly, doesn’t it? It’s this woman that people are connecting with, what she is and who she is.”

“She’s already a ‘Devil Wears Prada’ fashion icon. People want to see that side,” she noted. “They want to see it go there, and we’ll go there.”

There’s a new sense of confidence surrounding Hathaway, and she agreed while speaking with Hoda Cott in March about life post-pandemic. .. that’s what you have to learn.

Walsh grew up with a passion for clothes after seeing her hard-working grandmother and lawyer mother “very methodical and thoughtful” about what to wear. , has adopted that approach to dress clients such as Lucy Hale, Lana Condor and Freida Pinto.

As for Hathaway, Walsh said the actor “brings some substance to the table.”

“She wears things that project that joy and that confidence and that potential on people, because there’s a certain beauty and accessibility that she’s always had,” she exclaimed. , when people see her… I think it’s so comfy and cool, like, ‘I can wear it too.'”

And if there’s one piece of advice Walsh, who writes a book on “The Power of What You Wear,” can give clients or anyone else, it’s this. And you have nothing to lose in fashion. It’s just clothes. ”

Below, Walsh breaks down four of Hathaway’s recent eye-popping looks from the past few months.

“Are you… wearing a pink Valentino?”

Walsh: The look was specifically for the[Valentino Haute Couture Fall/Winter 22/23 fashion]show. I have to give credit to (Valentino’s creative his director) Pier Paolo (Picioli) and the collection. But the whole collection kind of pushes a statement, and I love how it came through.

“Are you… wearing a custom Armani Privé?”

Walsh: Armani made a custom gown for us, and we played around with colors and different color combinations. I’m so happy to finally understand (what it looks like). One of my favorite mentors,[stylist]Elizabeth Saltzman, who I love, she talked about “moments of reset” and the power of white (using color) .

I didn’t realize it before I started the Cannes fitting, but it was the first time she’d been to Cannes. I thought she’d been here about 10 times, but it was the first time. I mean, I was so excited that she was announced as the face of Bvlgari. Armani… they’ve been dressing her up since her first film became part of the cultural zeitgeist. So it all felt like it came full circle.

We fit in Cannes and Roberta Armani was there. It was perfect and stunning. What I liked was how easy it was to do the hair and makeup. I was like, ‘Oh, it’s amazing that I just happen to be here.

“Are you… wearing a David Koma cutout dress?”

Walsh: It was wild and very interesting how it worked on the carpet.

It’s the kind of dress that works so well because she just shines in her own skin…and you have to do it to wear that kind of dress. . It felt like icing on a cake. I’m cool too when I see a designer that can strike that balance of showing skin without being vulgar. David Koma is great.

“Are you… wearing a colorful Christopher John Rogers set?”

Walsh: (Christopher John Rogers) is a designer who brings joy to the world and we want to be part of spreading that message. He is so good at what he does, unique among his peers, the quality and method of his designs and how they are executed is astounding.His colors his palette is psychedelic and fun. It’s very fun.
