Storm Cloud Hovers Over Sarah Jessica Parker's Head

By PopEater Staff Posted May 28th 2010 07:35AM

Hats off to Sarah Jessica Parker for never missing a beat. The fashion-forward actress turned heads -- including her castmates' -- at the London premiere of 'Sex and the City 2' Thursday with an extravagant hat by Philip Treacy and a matching gown by late designer Alexander McQueen.

"He made the dress for me two years ago," she said of McQueen, who died in February. "I wouldn't have worn anything else. I wore it as an emotional tribute to him. Lee, this is for you. I miss you very much."

But the headgear was the real star of the show. New York magazine liked it, but said it looked like "a swarm of gnats descending on her head -- but, you know, glitter disco gnats."

The ornamental headpiece hearkened back to a similar noggin-top she work at the London premiere of the first film. That green, flowery number was the main attraction as well and dominated the chatter on fashion blogs for days.

At the NYC premiere on Monday night, Parker literally glowed in a one-shouldered neon yellow Valentino gown, which she borrowed. Her long, blonde, wavy hair and muted makeup perfectly complimented the bright gown.

yep, anything to pull full attention on her. Is the reason she's so good at Carrie is that she's just like Carrie? I can't watch her in anything else.

Wow how unusual, wearing a wild hat in the UK. I bet she borrowed it from Horse Face Camilla Parker Bowles. At least SJP had a rat knaw that mole off her face. Carrie is a terrible girl, she lies and cheats, and lies, lies, lies. She sleeps with other peoples husbands and cheats on her own boyfriend, but somehow American women think she is great and cute, cute, cutseypie because she skips the streets of Manhattan spending all her money and shoes. It makes me want to f'n hurl. These broads are too long in the tooth to pull off the girlie stuff any longer. SJP is the cryptkeeper.

By KMMC

Love SJP!! Not only is she a fabulous Carrie Bradshaw, she is really a talented actress. The fact that she dares to wear "crazy fashion", it's all about entertaining and she is a great entertainer. Go SJP/Carrie!!!

By fiona

Yeah, right. When have you ever seen SJP deviate even a hair from her own persona? Never. Same goes for her husband. I'm not sure which is more nauseating so we'll call it a tie...but you can't call her a really talented actress with a straight face. As for her wardrobe? At her age, don't you think it's time she gave that 'ballerina look' a rest? So much money, yet so predictable. Yawn.

By P.J.

Only think "stunning" about Sarah Jessica is that so many people think that she is attractive. Seems like a nice young lady, but looks a little like a "witch."

By Jade

I like the "girls". After all, this is just entertainment, nothing more.

Wow...that is one hideous hat.

By BigMo

BRAVO Ms. Bradshaw! Fashion Forward in a world that thinks "skinny jeans" are Couture!

By G. Roberts

I KNOW THIS IS SUPPOSE TO BE "HIGH" FASHION BUT IT JUST LOOKS REALLLLLLLLLY STUPID. SHE LOOKS LIKE A FOOL!!!!!!!

By geri

I don't know what people are thinking but her wardrobe in the series was hideous and continues to be in the movies and the premieres.
As for beautiful,the only time she looks good is with the right lighting and camera tricks. Now that she's getting older, that nose of hers really needs a little work. Give the credit to the women who are really gorgeous like Gwen Stefani. She is picture perfect in every way.

By eric

SJP.... hhmmmmm, Fugly? yes. she would be a GREAT Wicked Witch of the West in an Oz remake.

By flippin

ONLY CHER can wear those hats and look GOOD!

By me

All plastic !

By Jill

Plastic?? Now exactly what do you think she has had done??

By bugboy

that is good that the smoke monster off of lost got some work after the shows series finale.

By andrea

I love SJP! She is a good actress, and I think She is a kind and lovely person. I'd take her over a vain, self-centered actress any day!

I always enjoyed her shows, I also like to wear crazy hats. I love her show name Carrie, because that is my name.

Carrie

By pinkkitty626

Oh God, when is she going to cut herself bangs or something...she has such a horsey face.

By Betts

What?? No pictures of Aiden?

By N2

SHE IS AN ACTOR AND PRINCESS. OF COURSE SHE SHOULD WEAR OUTRAGOUS THINGS ITS PART OF THE FUN AND EXCITMENT OF ENTRAINING. SARAH CAN PULL IT OFF WITH GRACE AND DIGNITY, BESIDES IT GIVES US SOMETHING STARE AT AND TALK ABOUT, OR LAUGH ABOUT. SHE IS ONE OF THE GREAT ONE'S, THANKS FOR DANCING LIKE NO ONE IS WATHCHING. NICK
