Sex And The City - The Characters And Their Fashion

By Lola Jasminia

The fashions that can be found in Carrie Bradshaw's closet are almost as much a star of the show as she is. Included among the racks you'll find retro, vintage, Gap and haute couture for and outrageous and fun mix of styles. The most fashion forward of the bunch, Carrie constantly mixes it up and adds a little special something each season by including her signature touches of huge flower pins, Fendi bags and of course, the Manolos!

One of Carrie's dearest friends, Samantha Jones is a high-powered PR executive by day - wearing beautiful, designer suits of vivid colors with figure hugging styles. In the evening, though, watch out as Sam changes into her TRUE colors to show the vixen that she really is!

Another of Carrie's dear friends, Miranda Hobbes, chooses to dress a little more professionally during the day. As an attorney, her position calls for smart, dark suits, and she wears them very well. She prefers sneakers and sweats on the weekends but in the evening, watch out! This redhead is a real knockout!

Charlotte York is perhaps the most prim and proper of the group. Her perfectly coordinated pastels reflect her Park Avenue lifestyle. Always crisp and refreshing, she sometimes appears grim in her fashion taste. But we all know the truth, don't we? Watch out Atlantic City!

As the Main Man on Sex And The City, Mr. Big is a successful New York businessman who prefers his Armani suits. And he wears them very well! We don't see Big in jeans or sweats. He's not that kind of guy. We see him in Black Armani, Black limos or....a bed!

Steve Brady, Miranda's beau and future husband, is every guy's guy. Jeans and a T-shirt are all it takes to make this man happy. In fact, in one of the earlier episodes, Miranda has to buy him a suit! Nothing at all wrong with that, I say. He's cute, he's charming, he has beautiful blue eyes and he believes in monogamy. How many guys do YOU know that fit that description?

The man who eventually captures Charlotte's heart, Harry Goldenblatt, is short, bald, very hairy and somewhat of a schlupp. But he's so lovable! As an attorney, he dresses in smart, professional suits during the day. But in the morning and on his days off, he much prefers his birthday suit!

And, finally, there's Smith. Samantha's man. Jerry Jerrod. As far as I'm concerned, this man is like the English Leather man...he can wear English Leather...or nothing at all! An aspiring actor when Sam meets him, she changes his name and uses a little of her PR magic to make him into one of the most sought after dishes in New York!
