For her romp in the city, Parker donned a pair of Mary Jane-inspired heels. The fashionable thespian’s footwear featured black glossy leather uppers, pointed triangular toes, 2 to 3-inch stiletto heels and straps that sat across the tops of her feet. Said straps featured bedazzled detailing in jewel tones, or TBH, updating the all-black silhouette.
The Mary Jane silhouette has become a fixture of the fashion and footwear industries within the last few years, thanks in part to brands like Maison Margiela and Miu Miu. While the style is enjoying popularity at the moment, Mary Janes have been around since 1904. The silhouette is classic. Parker’s pair elevated the classic silhouette, giving it height and drama. “Failure to Launch” actress often opts for t-strap sandals and pointed-toe pumps both on and off the red carpet.
Clad in neutrals, Parker wore a black denim button-up top that sat off-the-shoulders. The denim was partnered with 2000s-inspired capris in a khaki color with lace-up detailing on the sides. Capris are a hot item in fashion at the moment, having a resurgence much like Mary Janes. The trouser style imparts a summery nostalgic vibe.
“And Just Like That” is a spin-off of Max’s hit franchise “Sex and the City.” Released in 2021, “And Just Like That” features a nearly identical cast to the show’s original main players including Sarah Jessica Parker, who plays the ever-fashionable Carrie Bradshaw, Cynthia Nixon, who depicts Miranda Hobbes and Kristin Davis, who depicts Charlotte York.
The star’s mid-calf length bottoms are definitely in-keeping with this year’s summer looks, as the decades-old capri pant—which was first created in 1948 by German Fashion designer Sonja de Lennart—is making something of a comeback. Once popularized by Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot and Marilyn Monroe, capris are now popping up on Hollywood A-listers like Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and Emily Ratajkowski.
“[When I was younger], I always styled them with a voluminous top and flats—I think back then I [was trying] to imitate Brigitte Bardot,” Renia Jaz recently told Marie Claire, adding that after the pants were made “ubiquitous in the 1990s and 2000s” they seemingly vanished and were quickly “considered obsolete and kitsch.”
Now, capris have been revived via numerous Spring 2024 catwalks, including Ferragamo’s latest collection which featured a pair of black fitted pants that paid homage to Hepburn’s iconic 1950s capris. Tory Burch, as previously reported by Marie Claire, also revived the capris trend with a “‘she means business’ approach, showcasing a pair of tailored capri trousers alongside a blazer that would fit nicely into any spring work wardrobe.”
Recently, Bella Hadid paired a black Ferragamo bomber jacket with coordinating black capri pants, just hours after she successfully promoted her fragrance brand, Ôrebella, in New York City. Kendall Jenner also recently wore an Alo capri workout set, expertly paired with some simple ballet flats.
In addition to elevating the 2024 capri pants trend, the And Just Like That… actress decided to ditch her beloved Manolo Blahniks and stepped all the way into the latest hybrid shoe trend, proving once and for all (and if anyone had any doubts) that she is the one and only Carrie Bradshaw—no imitators, no re-creators.
