"The Devil Wears Prada" is her life

Rey-Hanna, Lily and Lili have the job that millions of young women would envy. They are the real assistants of Anna Wintour. And thanks to Instagram we know: This job is a dream job!

We remember: "The Devil Wears Prada" is the film version of Lauren Weisberger's eponymous success story. She wrote down her grim experience at US Vogue and landed a bestseller behind the scenes of the glittering fashion industry. And the movie? It's amusing, light, a bit shallow, but sparkling like an endless sequence of "Sex and the City". And Meryl Streep shines as a deadly beast. "Model" for the character of the nasty boss in the success story: Anna Wintour . She has been directing US Vogue since 1988 and is infamous for her harshness.

The boss of the novel tyrannies her colleague until she finally breaks away from the fashion circus. And yes, we do not envy Andrea, played in the movie by Anne Hathaway, for her stressful job as an assistant in "The Devil Wears Prada". But in real life it looks quite different now: Rey-Hanna Vakili, Lily Stav Gildor and Lili Göksenin form the #teamaw today . The highlights of her career as Anna Wintour's assistants - apart from the fact that after that they really have all the doors in the fashion business open? A meeting with President Obama and the First Lady, an appearance in the Vogue.com hit series "73 Questions" and tickets to the Met Gala . Who are the girls and what they have on the box? We'll reveal here. Also: The best Instagram moments of the real assistants of Anna Wintour . But beware: 100 percent envy factor!

REY-HANNA VAKILI

With almost 6, 000 Instagram followers, Rey-Hanna Vakili is perhaps the starlet among the assistants. The 23-year-old Australian appeared in Down Under already in one or the other gossip, but then went for her Yale studies n the United States. She is the ex of Model Jason Dundas. The two had an on-off relationship over five years.
