Sarah Jessica Parker says she never wears the wardrobe associated with her character Carrie Bradshaw, even though she keeps the outfits from “Sex and the City” in an archive. Parker explains that the clothing does not feel suitable for her own life and that wearing it would make her feel like she was dressed as a costume rather than herself.
Both outlets report that Parker distinguishes between her identity and the character’s, saying there is a “huge separation” between herself and Bradshaw. While she does not wear the archived pieces, she expresses appreciation for the role and impact the character has had over the years. The coverage focuses on her personal rationale for not reusing the iconic looks, rather than any change in her public image or fashion choices.
