So I just saw the infamous "Sex and the City" new release and thought I'd write a post on the jewelry the ladies wore and my thoughts. The general lack of necklaces was quite prevalent as the fashion was more focused on the "accessories" such as large antique brooches and hair pins, chunky earrings to wide belts and over sized hats. However after having said that, Charlotte still maintained her traditional and conservative simple necklace and Carrie layered several types and colors of pearls.
To be jewelry specific, the antique brooch was seen on Carrie's wedding dress which beautifully complimented her Vivienne Westwood gown and feathered cap (seen to the left here in NY Times). Charlotte also sported a beautiful circular diamond brooch on her black dress during Fashion Week scene. Another bold choice included the use of huge contemporary earrings on Miranda and Samantha which complimented their geometrical patterned dresses.
I also noticed the underlying theme of what I like to call "fashion fusion" where just like PF Changs, two different genres were blended together. An example is seen where Carrie and Big are in their soon to be penthouse apartment and Carrie sports her vibrant vintage green party dress with a Gothic style black studded leather belt.
The girls all maintained their own unique styles, while the main theme in all four of them included bright and vibrant hues from hot fuchsia and canary yellow to emerald green. Metallics were also prevalent from silver and gold dresses to matching shoes and purses.
Personally, I enjoyed the fashion more than the film (like Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette).
It was great to see the ladies back on the screen after 4 long years... and the fashion was better than ever!
