Gird your loins, because Thursday's Albie Awards including one major fashionable reunion.

The Clooney Foundation for Justice’s second-annual event featured a venerable who's who of celebrity faces, including former Devin Wear's Prada costars Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep — who reunited 17 years after the beloved film's release.

Both were smiling ear to ear as they posted together at the function, which the foundation states honors "brave individuals who, at great personal risk, have devoted their lives to justice."

Neither were wearing cerulean. Instead, Hathaway, 40, wore a bright green, shimmery, strappy Versace floor-length dress with a silvered checkered pattern and floral appliqués across the front. She accessorized the gown with silver bag, and wore her hair half up and half down. A diamond necklace, matching earrings and other silver jewelry added extra sparkle to her look.

Streep, 74, was equally radiant in a sparking black sweater adorned with gold embellishments. She paired with top black pants and dress shoes.

Photographers caught the two former costars as they embraced in a hug.

The Devil Wears Prada was directed by David Frankel, and also starred Stanley Tucci, Adrian Grenier and Simon Baker. Apart from grossing $326 million worldwide, it also landed Streep an Oscar nomination.

Over the years since the film has came out, Hathaway and Streep have remained friendly, posing together at both the 2009 Vanity Fair Oscars Afterparty and on the 2014 Academy Awards red carpet.

In 2021, Frankel, 64, opened up about the role that Streep had in making sure Hathaway was cast in the film.

"Meryl was eager to make the movie, and she said, 'Let me meet with her,'" said Frankel in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that included some of the cast. "Brokeback Mountain was about to come out. Annie had a wonderful, small role in that. And Meryl watched that scene from the movie, she met with her and called up Tom Rothman at Fox and said, 'Yeah, this girl's great, and I think we'll work well together.'"
