Behind the scenes snaps of Anne Hathaway on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 have been surfacing, and one piece of jewellery seems to be a go-to for her character
The Devil Wears Prada remains one of the most iconic films of the 2000s, and now, almost 20 years after it first released in 2006, the filming for the sequel is well underway. Anne Hathaway has been spotted filming multiple scenes for The Devil Wears Prada 2, and her character Andy Sachs seems to have retained some of her stylish wardrobe from her days at Runway in the first film.
Although we’ve already spotted her in everything from a tailored trouser suit to a patchwork Gabriele Hearst maxi dress, there’s one item that’s been a constant in all of her looks so far – a T-bar necklace. The simple piece of jewellery is a bespoke design from Jemma Wynne, and comes with a hefty price tag of around $9,000 thanks to its 18kt gold and diamond design.

However, fans of the elegant necklace are in luck, because we tracked down a gorgeous (and much more affordable) alternative, and as a bonus, you can get it made with a bespoke design of your own. The Custom Stamped T-Bar Necklace from Abbott Lyon is priced at £79, and gives you full creative control on how you want the necklace to be finished.
You can select what type of chain you want, from a dainty fine one to a chunkier style, not to mention have a name engraved across the middle with up to nine characters to play with. You can also add a glittering birthstone to each end – they don’t have to be the same, you can have two different ones – to make it extra personal.
The necklace is made from stainless steel with 18kt gold plating, and has an anti-tarnish protective coating to stop it from discolouring. It’s also water, sweat and heat-resistant, so you can wear it all year round for any occasion.
If you want an even more affordable pick, Boden’s T-bar Chain Necklace is only £35, although it’s recommended you remove it when applying things like perfume or beauty products, or when going in water. We also love Tilly Sveaas’ Small Gold T-Bar On Belcher Chain, which is slightly pricier at £125-£140 depending on which chain length you pick, and is a favourite of Taylor Swift, who wears hers often.
So far every outfit where Anne has worn her T-bar necklace has seen her pairing it with a pearl necklace in a similar length. If you want to combine the two, Abbott Lyon also has the T-bar Pearl Necklace for £59, which has less of a drop on the T-bar pendant, but swaps the traditional chain for freshwater pearls.
