I had a thought....

.... would the Academy nominate Patricia Fields for an Oscar as a nod to the contributions she's had to pop culture via the Sex and the City wardrobe over the whole series? A Golden Globe maybe? Thoughts.....?

Oi Vey, Pat...

Carrie

A. I'm not a very Up-To-The-Minute Blogger.... I've had my head buried in the sand every one has seen this (days ago) but me.

B. I said I wouldn't devote any time or energy on the whole Sex and the City stuff but this hat is deffinately costume worthy I had to do something about it so here are my favorite guys' take on the outfit (even though I don't entirely agree with them.)

Sex and the City... the Movie

So... um... I'm sorry to say this for all the SatC fans out there but I am B-O-R-E-D of this show. Don't get me wrong there was a couple of years there where I was all about it. We had a mini-Finale party and everything... but I'm just plain over it. It had it's moment... and that moment is being beaten to death on My9 and TBS every night. However I couldn't help but wonder....

I saw this pic of the wedding dress today and thought in the interest of Creative Scholarship it's worth noting. And this sort of bright green/turquoise color of the feathers is a color I'm just in love with these days... Okay okay okay- yeah, I'm just a sucker for a Big Fat Dress so here it is.

And some other Pat Fields extravaganza:

This is pretty much all I'm devoting to this movie. (To be fair, I don't doubt the genius that is Pat Fields. Some of my annoyance is coming from the over-hype that's going to kill any fun out of this project. And that she's the only costume designer any non-costume interested person has ever heard of, except she's really just a stylist- a FANTASTIC stylist- but still a stylist. I would be enjoying this alot more if every 9 year old wasn't wearing feathers in her hair right now. But one does have to admit that alot of today's style will - in time- be seen as a direct influence of her work on this show. And for that history making artistry I salute her.)
