It’s been a hectic week for celebrity power couple Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin, who dealt with a home intrusion at their $2 million Hollywood property on April 17. The “Suite Life” star effectively neutralized the situation by tackling the trespasser and holding him at gunpoint until the police arrived. Sprouse, naturally, looked a bit disheveled and stunned days later but was able to salvage his appearance right in time for“The Devil Wears Prada 2” world premiere’s red carpet with the help of… a $60 blazer from Walmart?

In what would become two of the evening’s most creative sartorial mashups, Sprouse and Palvin both rocked head-to-toe looks courtesy of a few affordable clothing collections from the mega-store: the first being Walmart’s exclusive, limited-edition “The Devil Wears Prada 2” collaboration with in-house label Scoop and the second coming courtesy of renowned designer Brandon Maxwell, who helms the Free Assembly clothing capsule that tapped the couple to star in its spring 2026 campaign.

Palvin’s look could best be described as straddling the line between “editorial chic” and “office siren”: an apt aesthetic choice, given that Part Two of the iconic film still centers on the inner workings of Priestly’s Runway Magazine. The focal point binding it all together was her navy-hued blazer, a single-breasted, hourglass-shaped beaut that Palvin donned unbuttoned. Underneath, Walmart’s Devil Wears Prada Lace Up Cotton Shirt announced itself — a 100-percent cotton creation that supplemented the blazer’s stretchy fabric with its breathable one. Should Palvin have decided to go sans cover-up, she would’ve revealed the item’s standout feature: a corset-inspired, lace-up design on the back that, akin to the shirt’s dolphin hem, makes it a more fashion-forward wardrobe addition than your average button-up.

Extending the feminine-meets-formal through line in her premiere outfit, Palvin wore what just might be our favorite pick from the Scoop Collection, a$39 fringe skirt that’s running out of sizes as we speak and references traditional salsa skirt styles. A snakeskin-printed pair of slingbacks served as the cherry on top (erm, bottom), boasting “The Devil Wears Prada 2” branding on its comfort-optimized insoles.

All in all, Palvin’s camera-ready getup clocked in at just under $170. Her heroic beau, on the other hand, turned heads in a $64 blazer from Free Assembly’s first suiting line for men (sticking to a versatile black shade while taking advantage of the piece’s practical specs like button cuffs and hip pockets), plus the label’s matching tailored pants. Would you believe us if we told you they cost only $34? The menswear looked just-right on Sprouse as he navigated the step and repeat and posed outside of Lincoln Center with his wife; you can rest assured that the coordinates will do a similarly stellar job in context of your own style, whether you take the pants and blazer to a destination wedding or Friday date night (upscale edition).

At the event in question, during which the movie’s cast and A-list fans alike showed off pricey threads from fashion houses like Louis Vuitton, Givenchy (read: Meryl Streep’s cape), and Schiaparelli, Sprouse and Palvin’s outside-the-box, Walmart-fueled stylings were nothing short of refreshing.

Their ensembles aligned with the global premiere’s dress code and illustrated a key point: You don’t have to pay a pretty penny to look sharp and put-together. Also: Celebrities are just like us, what with their occasional wallet-sparing shopping habits. Waste no time in mimicking the duo’s red carpet ‘fits by heading over to Walmart.com right now, while the relevant inventory is still in stock before “The Devil Wears Prada 2’s” official release on May 1.
