Milan shines as 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' debuts in Italy

Prada may play a title role in “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” premiering in Milan on Thursday, but fashion and the city itself are also in the spotlight.

The film, featuring Meryl Streep, was partly shot during Milan's fashion week.

A Dolce & Gabbana show served as a backdrop for a scene.

Milan’s culture counselor, Tommaso Sacchi, says the film benefits the city.

Fans are flocking to a pop-up at Milan’s main department store, taking selfies at a replica of Miranda Priestly’s desk.

The Prada brand, founded nearby, has become a fashion juggernaut under Miuccia Prada.
