NY, a global power city, strongly supports the subject matter of the movie. As it is the center of the fashion world, it shows the main topic of the story thoroughly. Some might say Paris is also well known for trends. Yes, but it does not match the features that this film wants to show. It needs a busy city with tall buildings to effectively show the hectic and fast systems and trends of Runway, the fashion magazine company which appears as the representative. Therefore, the very place that suits perfect for the movie is New York.
In addition, characters are conveyed indirectly but satisfactorily by appointing NY as the set. Miranda Priestly, an authoritative fashion magazine editor, is one of the examples. She is sharp, incisive and fastidious. These traits harmonize with the image of the background. The soaring grey buildings with many people hurriedly and briskly walking the street express the icy editor-in-chief of Runway fashion magazine as the most appropriate leader. Moreover, as a second example, you can see all the staffs following her as she issues instructions. This structure seems similar to NY leading the fashion world. Accordingly, there is a significant association between New York and the characters.
As a result, the only place that demonstrates The Devil wears Prada pertinently is New York in that it clarifies and backs overall theme and characters based on fashion. Though the second Great Depression comes to the U.S., fashion will still remain, never die in New York.
I also like the movie, The Devil Wears Prada. Actually, before I watched this movie, I thought the city of fashion is Paris. However, after watching this movie, New york can be regarded as fashion city, too. As you mentioned, New york can show viewers not only fashions but also busyness for making and delivery of clothes. And also, Miranda Priestly, an editor of fashion magazine, is identified well with New york. New york is certainly the best scenery for this movie.
