Sarah Jessica Parker’s Met Gala apparel is a vibe.
The “Sex and the City” icon honored the theme of the 2022 Met Gala with a surprising look that paid homage to Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley, who made history as the primary Black feminine clothier within the White Home.
Parker’s look nodded to a 1860’s ensemble by Keckley, a former-slave-turned-dressmaker, who used to stitch attire for former first woman Mary Todd Lincoln and different Washington’s socialites.

Honoring the occasion’s theme of “In America: An Anthology of Trend,” Parker made fairly an impression when she arrived on the Metropolitan Museum of Artwork sporting the robe designed by Christopher John Rogers. She paired the gown with heels from her eponymous shoe line.
In true Sarah Jessica Parker trend, her Met Gala look wasn’t full and not using a headdress. The fashionista’s black-and-white feathered hat got here with a customized veil embellished with black stones.
Parker lately revealed to Vogue that standing by the night time’s theme was of the utmost significance to her in the case of choosing an outfit:
“All I ever take into consideration is the theme and affect,” she stated. “Every time I am going to the Met [Gala], I don’t perceive how everybody else didn’t spend seven to 10 months engaged on [their ensemble]. I’m like, ‘How do you not arrive exhausted by the main points of getting it proper?’”
Regardless of her knack for nailing the theme, Parker admitted battling a few of the themes previously.
“The task is the theme and typically the theme eludes you,” Parker stated. “…We’ve had some very summary themes the place you’re like, ‘Nicely, how do you interpret that?’ It’s like singing a track ― both you’re an interpreter otherwise you’re not.”
