Sarah Jessica Parker marked her 12th appearance at the Met Gala in New York City on May 6, with an outfit fit for her iconic Carrie Bradshaw character. Notably, she accessorized her attire with patent blush stilettos, distinctively styled beneath bedazzled sheer tights.
The actress showcased her preference for innovative fashion through a Richard Quinn gown, distinguished by its intricate “birdcage” design, complemented by a Philip Treacy headpiece.
Since her first Met Gala in 1995, where she opted for a black velvet dress sourced from a thrift store, Parker’s footwear choices have evolved to highlight her penchant for bold and thematic expressions. Her progression included a pair of black sandals with a detailed front by Alexander McQueen in 2006, matched with a tartan gown, and buckled shoes from her SJP Collection in 2016, worn over an all-white outfit. Parker continues to experiment with vibrant colors and styles, including Bow Boots from the SJP Collection for her 59th birthday.
The Met Gala raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and celebrates the Costume Institute’s annual exhibits. This year’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” celebrates the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” exhibit. The 2024 event is notably co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
