Patricia Fields + Sex And The City 2

Sex and the City costume designer Patricia Fields explains some of the more fabulous and iconic looks from the movie. She explains the looks above below:

"It was a concern of Sarah Jessica’s that Carrie’s not a kid anymore, and so maybe we should change her style, but I said, 'No, she's not a kid, but she's still Carrie! She doesn't all of a sudden have a lobotomy and become like Charlotte, or become a designer-driven dresser.'

In this shot, Carrie has a potpourri on." (This is the $50,000 outfit.) "That’s a Chanel skirt over a pair of jeans by the Blonds, the same design team that made Samantha’s dress. They have all these cuts and slits in them, behind which are Swarovskis and studs. And it’s just a simple blouse she’s wearing, I think it's vintage, which is classic Carrie.

Charlotte’s wearing a vintage YSL that I found at a vintage dealer in New York.

Here, Miranda's wearing an old Halston, which I used a lot of in the movie. It’s green, one of those colors that not many women can wear, but that looks great on her. I’m not sure what’s going on with her hair, though. I don’t like it curled up that way. Hair-makeup and wardrobe are two different departments.

I love Samantha’s dress! It’s from a design team that I have a personal relationship with called the Blonds. They're both men, but one dresses like a woman, and they're like a couple. And Phillipe Blond was wearing this red dress at some event we were both at, and I said to him, 'Phillipe we have to have that dress for the movie!' ... You know how people talk about how Samantha is just like a drag queen?

This is the outfit I wore to the Sex and the City 2 pre-screening event in uptown Charlotte Wednesday night.

Movie: September Issue

So I watched the movie The September Issue tonight and I’m sad to say I was not that impressed. For some reason I loved The Devil Wears Prada and was hoping it was going to be like this. I should have known since the movie was a documentary.

One thing that I noticed before that I noticed again was that the majority of the older people in the fashion industry are not good looking at all. Images: Top to bottom [Andre Leon Talley, Grace Coddington, Anna Wintour]. They look like death in the eyes. Not attractive at all. I hope this will not happen to me. I’m not saying that old people should not be in the industry, because they need to, they have great wisdom and knowledge that they can teach the newbies. Lets call the plastic surgeon UGLY PEOPLE.

So I’m excited for the second installment of Sex and the City 2!! It feels like I just got finished watching the first one. The movie will not be out until the middle of next year, [5-28-2010] but it’s not to go ahead and hear about what’s going on with the movie in the mean time right? To get all the latest news and information about the filming and what not, go to the official movies website here.

Movie: "Good Hair"

wegetDRESSED Daily: Emma watson | Teen Vogue

Emma Watson is known for her role she plays as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movie series. She started the movies around age 10 and now the sixth movie just came out this month and she is currently 19.

These photos come from her 3rd Teen Vogue shoot in an English country side. From article: “Fashion, in fact, has long been of particular interest to Emma. She’s worn enough big-night Chanel to become friendly with Karl Lagerfeld, the line’s iconic designer—”It’s kind of my lucky brand,” she explains, “a fail-safe”—and lately she has been branching out, experimenting with Balenciaga, Burberry (for whom she’s a fall face), Miu Miu, Alice Temperley, and a little-known Englishman named William Tempest, whose designs she first spotted at an up-and-comers event called Fashion Fringe. When she’s not premiere-hopping, she says, “I live, really, in jeans from Topshop, blazers from Ralph Lauren or Reiss, and ballet flats.”

“It’s very hard to describe your own style,” she admits. “And I’m young, so I’m still experimenting. But I think it’s quite British and very much about individuality.” Emma says she prefers to pull her own party dresses, but even when she’s short on time and must work with a stylist, she’s careful to make sure that the resulting outfits don’t look overdone.”
