魔鬼穿名牌 (The Devil wears Prada)是康乃爾(Cornell)大學畢業女生勞倫‧衛斯伯格 (LAUREN WEISBERGER)第一本就暢銷的小說。寫的是頂尖美國紐約時裝雜誌的點滴,她那「一百萬女生搶的要死的工作」(A job a million girls would die for) 的親身經歷。(大主編的小助理,可以接觸到時裝界名人,周薪約美金USD1,000)

普及本第58頁有下列一段讓年輕女生羨慕穿名牌魔鬼老闆的第一樁事,聖誕節沒到,辦公室已收到256件各家名牌老闆、一流設計師及社交名媛送來的禮物,改拍電影上映中沒提到,這裡補上原文,不妨測測各位女網友的名牌知識和時尚等級!

.........I picked up a few sheets of paper from the printer and saw that it was titled "X-Mas Presents Received." One, two, three, four, five,-six single-spaced pages of gifts, with sender and item on one line each. Two hundred and fifty­ six presents in all. It looked like a wedding registry for the Queen of England, and I couldn't take it in fast enough. There was

a Bobbi Brown makeup set from Bobbi Brown herself,

a one-of-a-kind leather Kate Spade handbag from Kate and Andy Spade,

a Smythson of Bond Street bur­gundy leather organizer from Graydon Carter,

a mink-lined sleeping bag from Miuccia Prada,

a multi-strand beaded Verdura bracelet from Aerin Lauder,

a diamond-encrusted watch from Donatella Versace,

a case of champagne from Cynthia Rowley;

a matching beaded tank top and evening bag from Mark Badgley and James Mischka;

a collection of Cartier pens from Irv Ravitz,

a chinchilla muffler from Vera Wang,

a zebra-print jacket from Alberto Ferretti,

a Burberry cashmere blanket from Rasemarie Bravo.

And that was just the start.

There were handbags in every shape and size from everyone:

Herb Ritts, Bruce Welier, Giselie Bundchen, Hillary Clinton, Tom Ford, Calvin Klein, Annie Leibovitz, Nicole Miller, Adrienne Vittadini, Michael Kors, Hehnut Lang, Giorgio Armani, John Sahag, Bruno Magli, Mario Testino, and N$rcisco Rodriguez, to name a few. There were dozens of donations made in Miranda's name to various charities, what must have been a hundred battles of wine and cham­pagne, eight or ten Dior bags, a couple dozen scented candles, a few pieces of Oriental pottery, silk pajamas, leather-bound books, bath products, chocolates, bracelets, caviar, cashmere sweater, framed photographs, and enough flower arrangements and /or potted plants to decorate one of those five-hundred-couple mass weddings they have in soccer stadiums in China.                           Ohmigod!
