And just like that. . . Carrie Bradshaw takes her final bow.
Tonight’s series finale of And Just Like That saw the iconic Sex and the City character, famously portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker, make her final TV appearance—alongside her fellow OG characters, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis). And in true Carrie fashion, she embodied her avant-garde fashion sense right up to the very last scene.
Costume designed by Molly Rogers and Danny Santiago, Carrie’s AJLT wardrobe throughout the series has been an epic playground for nostalgia; She has re-worn many iconic pieces from the early SATC days. (In case you missed it, we defined Carrie and all her signature wardrobe staples here.) For the costumers, it was bittersweet to see the show come to an end, considering how much fun it has been dressing Carrie over the years. “They didn’t tell any of the crew that this [season] was the ending. I was in denial,” Rogers tells Vogue. “But as I read [the last episode], I was thinking about ways I could see her for the very last time. I was subconsciously trying to create something memorable.” So, let’s dissect that grand finale Carrie look, shall we?
Concluding with a shot of Carrie singing and dancing in her (glorious) New York home, our final glimpse of the character sees her in full-on fashion garb. No cozy sweats or loungewear here: It was only fitting that Carrie marked her final cameo in a voluminous crinoline skirt—a nod back to the iconic tutu she wore in the original Sex and the City opening title sequence, of course. “I knew it had to end in a crinoline,” says Rogers. “I always love to give homage to the original tutu, because that set the entire tone for what this show was going to be. But Carrie is mature and not going to be in a little mini tutu—it had to be a little grown-up.”
