Anne Hathaway Hilariously Reacts After Maternity Outfit Mistake
Pregnant Anne Hathaway Shows Off Baby Bump in Fiery Red Ensemble
Anne Hathaway is owning a wardrobe mishap with a royal stride.
Indeed, after the Princess Diaries star—who recently announced she is expecting her third baby with husband Adam Shulman—stepped out in New York City June 30 wearing a long-sleeve red peplum jumpsuit that showed off her baby bump, fans noticed that she seemingly wore the outfit backwards.
Hathaway—who paired the look with matching red heels, a gold choker and black cat-eye sunglasses—ultimately set the record straight about the look and hilariously fessed up to the fashion flub in a July 1 Instagram video.
After showing screenshots of multiple articles pointing out the potential error, the Odyssey actress asked, "I did?" before revealing her realization, "I did... I did."
Hathaway—who donned a similar cherry red ensemble in the clip—captioned the post with a face with an open mouth, grinning and melting face emojis.
And according to the Mother Mary star's stylist Erin Walsh, the jumpsuit comes from Ashlyn New York's Spring/Summer 2026 collection, with photos from the runway proving that Hathaway, in fact, wore the look backward when she positioned the scoop neckline in the front.
Whether or not the soon-to-be mom-of-three's twist on the runway look was intentional, fans praised Hathaway's all-red outfit.
"This was such a Queen Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi move," one user wrote, referring to her Princess Diaries character, while another commented with a spin on a Devil Wears Prada quote, "Are you wearing the—the Ashlyn jumpsuit backwards? Yeah, I am."
Meanwhile, another fan emphasized that "backward is the new forward."

And as Hathaway—who shares Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6, with Shulman—moves forward in showing off her maternity style, she's grateful for her motherhood journey so far.
"I just feel very lucky," Hathaway told People in April. "I know that not everybody who wants to be a parent gets to be. I’m just blown away by how fortunate I am. It went really well for me twice, and that’s really lucky."
As she expressed, "Being a mom is just this beautiful ongoing poem that I get to live inside of."

In fact, being a mom to two boys has even impacted the Oscar winner's closet.
"I’m a tomboy! I love that being a boy mom has really informed my fashion," Hathaway explained. "I have to always be able to go from a serious business meeting to, like, a basketball court. You have to be able to play pickup basketball at any point, in any outfit. So [I tell myself]: When you get dressed in the morning, dress wisely because you 100 percent are going to have a projectile thrown at you probably by the end of breakfast."
