NEW YORK CITY April 20, 2026 – Actress Lucy Liu stole the spotlight on the red carpet at the world premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2006 hit film. The 57-year-old star appeared radiant in a dramatic all-black ensemble as she posed for cameras at Lincoln Center’s David Geffen Hall.
Liu wore a sheer black lace gown from designer Georges Hobeika’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection, featuring intricate floral embroidery, sparkling beading, cascading fringe details, and fishnet panels that created a bold, glamorous boudoir-inspired look.
