The show’s legendary costume designer Patricia Field tells us how the iconic look came together.
Darren hired me on the strength of my vision for the characters and the fact that myand personal history brought a lot of street cred for a show set in New York City. I still had to prove myself, however. Darren isn’t a suit-and-tie guy. He’s clean-cut, with a typical uniform of sneakers, jeans and a polo or T-shirt. His laid-back look doesn’t make him any less of a businessman. A showrunner’s job is multifaceted.
Darren had to oversee every element of the show – including the outfit I picked for Sarah Jessica in the show’s opening sequence, which was not an immediate thumbs-up. Darren is very smart and has great instincts, but when he saw the look I put together – the tiered white tutu, a body-conscious pink tank top and neutral strappy high-heel sandals – he was incredulous.“This outfit is original, and inherent in the actress,” I said.
Darren compromised. He let us shoot it on condition that we shoot another option. I found a powder blue sleeveless sheath dress. But in the end, it was the tutu. It was always the tutu. As soon as he saw a shot of Carrie Bradshaw getting splashed when a passing bus – with her image and the line “Carrie Bradshaw knows good sex” on its side – hit a street puddle, Darren loved it.
