Anne Hathaway carries the vintage Coach Metropolitan Briefcase through the entire sequel, a piece costume designer Molly Rogers pulled directly from the archive. This is the original, dated December 1994, crafted in the United States from glove-tanned leather before Coach moved production overseas. The Metropolitan first launched in 1987. Forty years later, it is the most-referenced handbag in cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCurator's note: \u003c\/em\u003eI personally cross-referenced this piece against verified on-set photography from filming to confirm the silhouette, hardware, and proportions match Hathaway's screen bag exactly.
