The #PillowChallenge is still going strong, and, on April 22, Anne Hathaway reprised her iconic role as the Princess of Genovia from The Princess Diaries. You could say she gave bedding accessories a more regal touch.
Anne joined the viral Internet movement where Instagram and TikTok users are fashioning pillows into dresses. (So far, stars such as Halle Berry, Tracee Ellis Ross, and more have done it.)
Nodding to the white ball gown that her character ā a clumsy teen who finds out sheās royalty ā wore in the movie, when sheās finally introduced as a princess, the actor fashioned blue and white pillows into a strapless dress that mimicked her costumeās original silhouette. To take it to the next level, she even added the sunglasses and headphones that she sports on the filmās iconic movie poster. (All sheās missing is the tiara, though itās not something youād usually find lying around the house.)
āA Queen is never late; everyone else is simply early,ā Anne wrote in the imageās caption, quoting Julie Andrewsās (who plays the Queen of Genovia in the movie franchise) famous line from the film. As a final touch, the star stood in front of two paintings featuring blue butterfly wings, making it appear as though she herself had wings. (Nice touch.) Between Halleās glamorous execution, Traceeās tropical take, and Anneās nod to Hollywood, the next star who attempts it had better come armed with a genius follow-up!
