In the bar when Andie is giving her friends the expensive gifts, she hands her male friend a bottle of fragrance and says, "Prada." The bottle she hands him is not a Prada fragrance. It is, in fact, Aquolina Pink Sugar which is a women's fragrance. Even if you argue that she was not knowledgeable about fashion, the name is printed on the bottle. [Andie actually says "products". "And I have some products" are her exact words.]

In the scene where Andy is walking by the fountain in Paris, her phone starts ringing. When she checks to see who it is, Miranda's name and number shows up; however, if you look closely, the phone is actually showing an outgoing call TO Miranda, not FROM Miranda. See more...
The Devil Wears Prada (2006) - 7 corrections
Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

When Andy throws her phone in the fountain just as Miranda is calling, you can see the London Eye in the background of the shot despite the fact that they are meant to be in Paris. [The fairy wheel in the background is the Roue de Paris, a famous Paris attraction, which looks totally different from its London counterpart.]
In the scene at the restaurant/bar when Andy is handing out the gifts from work, she hands Lily a Bang and Olufsen phone. Andy states that it's worth around $1100 dollars, but they are only $850. If she just checked the price how did it change so dramatically? [When a product is first introduced, it is almost always more expensive than awhile after it has been out. A 42" plasma TV USED to cost $10000, now they commonly sell for less than $2000. There's also a difference between retailers, and markup. I can find an item at Walmart for example, with a markedly different price than for the same item at another franchise.]
During the opening credits, Andy has a green mug of hot drink which she puts down to the left - we can see a small part of the handle - when the shot goes back a couple of seconds later, we can only see the tiniest bit of the handle and suddenly there is a lot of steam coming out of the mug that wasn't there in the first shot. [This is not a mistake. The shot is closer in, so less of the mug is seen.]
On Andy's first day at Runway, she is shown walking into a building belonging to Elias Clarke and the name of the company appears prominently in the lobby on every elevator bank. However, when Miranda is later that same day shown walking into the same building, she walks into a different lobby, where the elevator banks are different and there are no "Elias Clarke" signs. [As the submitter says, Miranda walks into a different lobby. It's not unlikely that the building could have more than one way to get up to the floor where Miranda's office is.]
In the scene featuring Miranda's interview with Andrea, Miranda comments on the fact that Andrea had never heard of her before. While Andrea has told this to Emily, there is no time for Emily to pass this info on to Miranda, as we see the entire conversation between Miranda and Emily from the moment Miranda walks in the door. [Miranda infers a great deal about Andy in those first few moments. Given Andy's clothing, lack of fear of Miranda's presence, and seeming lack of interest in a position thousands of women would kill for - Miranda correctly infers Andy does not know who she is. She doesn't need Emily to tell her.]
