Who Wore It Better? Michael Kors Floral Dress

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 12:00:22 -0700

Ooh, it's the battle of the Sex and the City women. Actress Kristin Davis first wore this Michael Kors floral dress to Late Show With David Letterman back in May. It was a fine choice, considering the season and the popularity of floral frocks. She chose to cinch her waist with a purple belt and decorate her feet with black slingback sandals. Creator of SATC, Candace Bushnell, just wore the same dress to the show's DVD launch party. Her version doesn't consist of a belt; only a long necklace, a leopard clutch, and metallic peep-toe sandals. Which sexy woman gets your vote?

I Want This Wardrobe: Sex and the City Movie

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 14:00:22 -0700

What's better than Mexico? Why, Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda in Mexico! Now if only they had filmed in Zihuatanejo during my trip. Oh well, next time. It's no surprise that the Fab four brightened the already-colorful background of their hot locale by wearing gorgeous swimsuits and cover-ups. Some of their outfit choices, mainly Samantha's, were too extreme for the average gal, but if you're a part of Sex and the City, you're anything but average. Oh, and if you want to know what they're cracking up about, go see the movie.

Fab Flash: Sex and the City's Charlotte Makes Her Celebrity Designer Debut

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 11:00:22 -0700

Can you separate Kristin Davis from her lovable character on Sex and the City? It's certainly going to be hard when it comes to Charlotte York's pristine clothes.

Many of you have expressed how you relate to the classic style of Charlotte York, and now you'll have your chance to emulate it. A bit unexpectedly, Kristin is delving into the celebrity designer sphere by creating a better-priced line for Southern retailer Belk Inc., the Charlotte, NC-based retailer. Kristin, being from Columbia, SC, admits, "I grew up shopping at Belk. It was the nicest store we had, and I'd save my allowance to go to Belk."

The Kristin Davis brand is launching with sportswear, activewear, sleepwear, handbags, jewelry, belts and footwear, and beyond, retailing for $30 to $240. Her line will be featured in a shop-in-shop and will debut late August.

SATC co-star Sarah Jessica Parker's clothing line Bitten has been a success. Like SJP, Davis was actively involved in the development of her line. She continues, "It really started in my closet, which for me is more exciting than going shopping and just seeing what already is available. I have these classic pieces I've have for six, 10 years that I hold onto."

I Want This Wardrobe: Sex and the City Movie

FabSugar — Fri, 30 May 2008 16:00:22 -0700

In case you've been MIA, the whole Sugar gang finally saw the Sex and the City movie. But don't worry, I'm not going to utter a word about the story line. What I am going to open my trap about are the wardrobes of the fabulous foursome, courtesy of Patricia Field. Almost all of Carrie's outfits were dead on and gush worthy, but it was a little strange to see Miranda always dressed up and accessorized. I guess she's grown up and now appreciates fashion! Because I'm Fab, I was instantly able to identify what each character was wearing as soon as I saw it. Not! Let's just say I have friends in high places who were amazing enough to share their wealth of wardrobe knowledge. And what an excessive amount of wealth it is - dive in!

Charlotte York

White Dress and Shoes, Prada
Brown Quilted Bag, Chanel
Oversized Square Sunglasses, Salt Optical

Carrie Bradshaw

Ivory Suit, Ralph Lauren ($119)

A Few Fab Words With Sex and the City's Kristin Davis

FabSugar — Wed, 28 May 2008 04:00:22 -0700

We are getting closer and closer to the Sex and the City movie premiere (yay!), and we have yet to hear from the entire cast. Next up is Kristin Davis, aka Charlotte York. She was traditional, loved simplicity, and never wore anything too avant-garde. Still, her sweetness won us over, no matter our style preference. Here, Kristin dishes about her on-screen wardrobe, what she got to keep, and how her character's style has evolved.

Did Charlotte break out any new fashion?

She was never a rule breaker. She updated a little, but I wouldn’t call it a breaking of any rules. Pat is a very creative woman as we all know and really felt strongly that all of the girls would be updated in a way that would reflect where they were in life. So my silhouette is a bit more simple, a little less bows and flowers and things that she used to wear. And she wanted to try, and this is obviously in one’s fantasy life, a little bit of 1970s Jackie O – the sunglasses and on.

Were you excited about the outfits?

Yeah. It sounds so surface-y, but back in the real world we have been in for the last couple of years, you go to your fitting and you’re like, oh dear. Because we were just spoiled, spoiled, spoiled. Sarah had actually emailed me after hers [fitting] because she had actually had a little, ohhhhhhhh reaction, and she was like, wait until you get here. So I was kind of like, OK, I’m ready, and you walk in and there’s literally everything, tables of bags, tables of shoes, just a warehouse of literally every couture sample that is even remotely available. It really is quite something, and we could never do it without the support of the designers because even though we have a very lovely budget from New Line, it's just not possible.

To hear more from Kristin and to see photos of her from the film, read more.

Any outfits you would like to keep?

It's in our contracts that we get to keep our outfits, which is a fantastic thing. Except that for me, all of my outfits were samples. They were like, OK Kristin go upstairs and pick out the ones that you want, and I went upstairs and there was nothing there. You know what was there, my running pants, which I love, I wear them a lot in life, but I was like, where are my clothes? Because we had so many fittings and we had fittings all through the movie because we were waiting for the latest runway samples to come for like the tropical part and all that. So when I got there I had realized that everything was a sample and I was like, who took my clothes? I got all of the shoes. And then I got a beautiful Chanel bag because the wardrobe people felt terrible and called Chanel and were like Kristen doesn’t have any clothes, do you mind giving her this bag, it was so cute. And then I got a really cool dress from the tropical section, that yellow Biba, the very vacationy dress. So I did get some very choice pieces.

My [bridesmaid] dress was actually Zac Posen, her [Sarah's] wedding dress is Vivienne and honestly that is called the Black Swan and I wouldn’t want it. Even though it is a work of art, I just ran into him the other day and people keep asking me if I have that. First of all it would take up my whole closet; if you take that dress out, you could stand that dress and it would stand by itself, that’s how much weird plastic filament is in it. There’s only one of them, he’s got it back. It can stay back with him. It was not meant to be worn around the streets.

Sex and the City New York Premiere: Kristin Davis

FabSugar — Tue, 27 May 2008 16:53:17 -0700

Way to step out of your traditional shell, Charlotte York! I am smitten with the accordion pleated gold Donna Karan dress Kristin Davis chose to wear tonight. It's unique but still in line with Charlotte's classic style. The black accessories round out the look perfectly. Love it or hate it?

Sex and the City Movie London Premiere: Kristin Davis

FabSugar — Mon, 12 May 2008 13:44:50 -0700

Kristin Davis looks absolutely gorgeous at the London premiere of the Sex and the City movie. The classic beauty is wearing a vintage red chiffon Guy Laroche Couture dress. It drapes beautifully over her figure and I love the soft feather detailing. And those Fred Leighton diamond and ruby earrings are magnificent. Do you love or hate?

The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Kristin Davis

FabSugar — Mon, 05 May 2008 20:47:15 -0700

Kristin Davis' Michael Kors gown is a perfect example of how to obtain drama minus volume. The train and sequin detail on the bodice make it fancy and without being in your face. The bow in the back is very Charlotte York. Sweet!
