Anya Taylor-Joy’s Latest Look Proves Florals Can in Fact Be Groundbreaking for Spring

With the release of The Devil Wears Prada 2 right around corner, it’s easy to see the ways in which the original continues to reverberate in our cultural consciousness. Cerulean is making a comeback. Editors are striving to dress like pre-transformation Andy Sachs. And amongst fashion circles, one line that has been quoted ad nauseam over the last two decades comes from none other than Miranda Priestly (played by Meryl Streep). “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking,” she famously quips in the original film as she receives pitches for her magazine’s next edition and finds that one of them involves flowers.
Yes, the line still remains hilarious, but if recent runways from the likes of Chanel, Dior, and more have proven anything, it’s that there are still ways to make florals seem thrilling during the springtime. And Anya Taylor-Joy’s latest look is only further proof of that.
Currently, the Golden Globe winner is promoting The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, in which she voices Princess Peach, a role that she first voiced in 2023’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
While Taylor-Joy has been leaning a bit into method dressing with some peachy-hued looks, her latest ensemble, worn while doing press in Tokyo, was simply a stunning piece of fashion—no gimmicks needed. It was pulled straight from the Givenchy Fall/Winter 2026 ready-to-wear collection.

The strapless minidress was made of a duchesse satin and defined by its structural corset bodice and a floral-embroidered skirt knotted into a bow at one of the hips.
To match the dress, Taylor-Joy wore a pair of the house’s thigh-high Shark Pinch boots, which were decorated with the same floral pattern. Finally, she accessorized with link earrings and a golden ring, both from Tiffany & Co.
Floral-embroidered, pant-like leather boots that perfectly match a dress for one seamless silhouette? Now that’s something Miranda Priestly would never scoff at.
