Sarah Jessica Parker's Style File: 80 Of SJP's Outfits That Gave Us Carrie Bradshaw Realness
We look back at the now 57-year-old's best red carpet moments spanning over her 30-year career.
As of March 21, 2022 we learnt that our favourite TV show-cum-film franchise Sex and the City is coming back again in the form of And Just Like That season two, which has just been confirmed by HBO Max. And what does that mean? That designer-loving protagonist Carrie Bradshaw is set to grace our screens once more, this time in 2022's freshest styles as a 50-something.
However, just like her most famous role, actor Sarah Jessica Parker has become a style icon in her own right. Since bursting onto the scene as a plucky 20-year-old in 1985 SJP has proved her daring personal style on many a red carpet, from premieres in the 1980s through to multiple Met Galas in the 2010s.
Here are Sarah Jessica Parker's best style moments...
