Not The Pink Oscars Dress: This Is Anne Hathaway's Real Best-Dressed Moment Of 2013

With her name attached to two internet-breaking movies in 2026 — "The Devil Wears Prada 2" and "The Odyssey" — Anne Hathaway has been a regular on the red carpet and in conversation. But the attention should be nothing new to the star. She had a similarly big year back in 2013. Hathaway won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for role in "Les Misérables," but when she walked the carpet ahead of the ceremony, she wore a pink satin Prada gown that got a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. Between the dress' pale color, show-everything fabric, and the dart placement at the bust, Hathaway's, erm, nipples looked quite prominent and pointy. With the privilege of hindsight and time, Hathaway's dress has earned its proper place among the Oscars red carpet greats. But let's put a pin in the pink satin, shall we?

A few months later, on the first Monday in May, Hathaway walked the famous Met Gala steps, and the gown the actor wore that night flew a bit under the radar, but it's more than worth revisiting. That year's theme was "Punk: Chaos to Couture," and Hathaway fabulously nailed the vibe having draped her frame in an impossibly slinky black Valentino gown that read at once punk-rock and disco glam. Between the zig-zaggy shale-like print, the saucy sheer, and the dreamy feather details, this dress should've garnered way more headlines than the Prada "mishap." And we've been keeping our eye on Anne Hathaway's full beauty evolution via the photos, and this icy blond pixie cut was an especially fun high point.

Anne Hathaway was back in New York City again in May 2026 for fashion's biggest night. The theme for that year's fundraiser was "Costume Art," and if you're looking for celebs who nailed the 2026 Met Gala theme and looked like walking art, don't overlook Hathaway's strapless wrap dress. Michael Kors designed the gown which was hand-painted by the artist Peter McGough; the pair worked together to complete the look. The graphic design was inspired by the John Keats poem "Ode on a Grecian Urn." Kors told Vogue, "We loved collaborating with Anne to tell a story that is as old as time: a wish for peace, beauty, and harmony."

The partnership was a successful one because the gown, with its whimsical neckline and full skirt, was mostly black but still somehow felt totally airy and ethereal. As a matter of fact, Hathaway made our list of the best-dressed women over 40 at the 2026 Met Gala. And how funny: Feathers showed up again in this Met Gala look like they did back in 2013.
