Has there ever been a more amazing
style icon than Sarah Jessica Parker? Or more to the point, has
there ever been a more unique style icon than her alter ego, Carrie
Bradshaw? Not it my mind.
From the moment I saw her in the
opening credits of Sex And The City, wearing her famous tank top and
tutu combination, it was love.
Of course, the incredible fashion we
saw on the show was mostly a credit to SATC's costume designer,
Patricia Field. SJP first met Patricia in 1995 and fell so in love
with her collections, that she requested to have Patricia design some
of Carrie's clothes for SATC. Before long, the show became famous
for its incredible fashion and Patricia was nominated for Emmy's and
Costume Designers Guild awards.
As high end as most of Carrie's outfits
were, Patricia was also a big fan of vintage and would often spend
weekends searching thrift stores for beautiful pieces to ad to
Carrie's wardroble. Carrie was the queen of pairing high-end with
low-end and pulling it off seamlessly.
When it came to Carrie and Big's long
awaited wedding, I don't think there was any doubt in anyone's mind
that her dress would be anything but ordinary. Who could forget that
incredible Vivienne Westwood gown? Not to mention the blue &
green feather head-dress attached to her veil! Only Carrie could
wear a giant feather on her head and look amazing!
In true Carrie Bradshaw fashion, SJP is
set to release her own shoe collection in 2014. What took her so
long, right? Sarah will be teaming up with the CEO of Manolo
Blahnik, George Malkemus, for her line of shoes, bags and trench
coats. The line is set to be called "SJP".
I can't wait!

York leave the past behind and look forward to the future... This is
known as Fashion Week" – Carrie Bradshaw
