Sarah Jessica Parker hosted the charity auction during the Gala dinner following Dolce & Gabbana’s first-ever debut of couture in the US, which took place within the historic Astor Hall in the grand marble landmark building of the New York Public Library on Friday (April 6).
SJP loves to dress up, so she was in her element at this event.
This was Met Gala SJP; doing the absolute most and I’m living for it.
I’m sure many would’ve stopped at the glistening sequin gold dress, but Carrie, I mean SJP added yet more drama with the cape, jewels, turban and embellished heels.
Yes. I have been guilty of accusing the SJP over accessorizing on occasion. But her more is more approach couldn’t have been a more appropriate way to dress for this event.
Later in the night, Parker auctioned off her full ensemble for charity. The dress sold for $280,000.
OTT or just right?

SJP was auctioning off the aquamarine jewellery suite she’s wearing and offered the entire outfit midway to get the bids up some more hence the $280K final price. the winner wore the full ensemble to the Alta Moda fashion show days later.
She does over do it all the time and just looks unstylish. Sans cape it has gaudy opulence but with slightly entertaining theatricality but with the cape it just looks weird and makes her look misshapen.
Y’all are just mean!! Lol
But I have to agree this is NOT one of the best moments for SJP.
Just because you have the guts to dress like this doesn’t make it fashionable. Always over the top and so wrong.
I love it lol. It’s so OTT but I appreciate the drama.
Yes, OTT is what makes it so good 😀
Same!! Love the drama and the fact she’s not afraid to look a lil crazy. This is why she’s a fashion girl, she dresses for herself and I love that
No no no! I get that D&G’s aesthetic is excessive and OTT (I think, anyways?) But the dress alone would’ve made an awesome statement.
The look is hideous – she is beginning to look like Norma Desmond. Too, too much.
Terrible. She’s one of the worst dressers I have ever seen, in my eyes. consistently bad. She almost always takes her looks too far and ends up looking crazy.
+1
+2
She looks utterly and totally ridiculous from head to toe.
I am torn between which label I like less Dolce & Gabbana or Stella McCartney. With outfits like this, Dolce Gabbana wins (loses). This is horrible. The cape is awful —both in terms of fabric and that it makes SJP look like a sofa. The dress is OTT. The headpiece, why? I don’t understand how SJP is considered a fashion icon when I see something like this.
She used to look cooler in her outfits, but to be honest the ones i have seen in the last few years are bat shit crazy, still at the same time make her look matronly. Not a good combo.
Why is she wearing curtains and wrapping paper? Is this a challenge from project runway?
Well at least it went to charity so there’s that
Can Dolce & Gabbana just go away already? feels so try hard these days – their era of OTT gaudy glamour is over
I’ll take this over a lbd any day. Too much? Maybe. Amazing? For sure
She wasn’t my favorite in her show because she was too much and this is why. She looks like an ornament 🙁
