The “Sex and the City” alum worried about fitting into the infamous frock more than a decade later and said it “was terrifying to put it on.”
“It was in London and unearthing it was complicated — getting it through customs in time and then making sure was this, in fact, the original dress? The color looked different,” she said.
And since Carrie first wore the gown for her failed nuptials with Mr. Big, Parker added, she and the team were intent on changing the narrative surrounding the style. While she kept the polarizing blue bird headpiece from the 2008 flick, Carrie styled it with a new teal-colored cape, gloves and pumps this time around.
“How would it become something else?” Parker asked. “How would we layer it and give it a new life and have it feel modern and change the poetry that surrounded that dress from a lot of really painful but important memories that I don’t think Carrie really wanted to let go of, especially given this loss?Carrie originally wore the gown to wed Mr. Big before he ditched her at the altar.
It looks like everything old really is new again — including “Sex and the City,” which recently celebrated its 25th anniversary.
