As the four inseparable bachelorettes sauntered around New York, sharing intimate stories and seeking out advice from one another, there was certainly no shortage of trendsetting, extravagant outfits to drool over! Patricia Field, who worked as a costume designer and stylist for the shows six seasons, told Racked that she views style as a way of telling a story about โ€œwho you are and what youโ€™re doing that day โ€“ put yourself on a stageโ€ฆโ€ This bold fashion philosophy can no doubt be seen in the iconic looks Field put together for Carrie!

Itโ€™s been 12 years since the final episode of โ€˜Sex and the Cityโ€™ aired, and yet weโ€™re still head-over-heels in love with and inspired by Carrieโ€™s dramatic, personal style. Field recently revealed that it was her goal to ensure that Carrieโ€™s looks were always original, stating, โ€œWhatever sheโ€™s wearing has to be completely original to the last in time.โ€
