Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Overview… first assistant to demanding editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly. Emily’s high-stress job keeps her on her Louboutin-clad toes 24/7. Her next big task is to find a competent second assistant. Otherwise, her head is on the chopping block.
Personality... glamorous, judgmental, and neurotic. Emily often comes across as cold and insensitive, but who can blame her? She doesn’t have the time to coddle new hires like Andrea Sachs. She’s too busy trying to keep her own position.
