That’s a really weird red/orange/whatever color – the photos TLo have look much more orange. Also the shoes are ridiculous and I’m not sure where she thinks she is.
without the cape, i LOVE this dress. i separately love the cape, but for costume purposes only.
Another gasp-er. This one made me gasp aloud. She looks like Old Red Riding Mole.

Is the cape . . . stapled to the wall?
Is SJP gunning for a Hocus Pocus remake?
@Mary–I assume it’s not stapled, but it’s definitely stuck up there somehow and it’s really weird. How is it stuck to the wall? Why is it stuck to the wall? Why doesn’t SJP seem to be reacting to the fact that her stupid cape thingy is stuck to the wall?
Also, who the hell told her to do that with her hair? That is not good. Neither is what’s this dress is doing to her boobs.
In short, this pic is just a festival of WTF?
Wait a minute, is there a light switch inside her cape?
@LoriK – I have nothing to add. You’ve asked every question that ran thru my mind.
I am hoping that the “light switch” is a price tag….. someone can return this hot mess!
Wow, a cape flowing, nice.
Label not so nice.
Boobs must be painful.
Wow. That’s a whole lotta dress going on.
The shoes with this are horrendous. You should really take a look at those.
Satan and The City?
Have you seen the shoes though? They give new meaning to fug….
How are you guys seeing shoes? I zoomed in and still don’t see them.
Pretty sure light-switch is a label. And i think she must have just swung her arm up in the air and the cape would have floated down just after. I hope!
I don’t mind the dress. I would feel like a princess in it. I feel sorry for her boobs, though, as those puppies are hoisted up high.
You really need to post pic of the shoes–PAWS!! Together with the cape…Some say she is dressing with a sense of humor. I say the joke’s on her.
Oh, Carrie.
maybe the cape is up there because she was caught in mid-flip? like a magician?
I think it’s fantastic and I don’t care who knows it. (Although I would have cut out the tag.)
This cape is ridiculous, but her hair is truly horrible.
Please show the shoes! My mouth was open in disbelief when I saw them on TLo’s site last night. Also I got my husband to take a look at this getup and his remark was, “She’s a druid!”
@Eliza Bennett Too funny.
Without the cape, I think the dress is lovely.
The cape is not stuck to the wall, the camera just caught her as she was flipping it back so that we can see it in all it’s “glory.”
This reminds me of the picture of her with the bluish-lavender dress, standing in the street under an overpass with the crazy giant unbrushed Texas pageant hair. My reaction to both is “Just what the hell is going on here?”
This is at the “I Don’t Know How She Does It” premiere, yes? (I’m totally not seeing that movie.) If so, this is just Too Much Look for that occasion. This is an Oscars look, or perhaps Met Costume Ball.
Dracula re-envisioned as a horse-faced fashionista. Too severe, too tight, and there is just too much of it.
I think it’s kind of glorious in a way….please don’t beat me up.
Another painful example of PAY ATTENTION TO ME SYNDROME (PATMS).
I’m sorry – I have never gotten this woman as “fashion plate”. I think she always just goes over the line of avant-garde into what @The Other Molly coined “PATMS”
It’s not about whether or not you think she’s pretty, I think she doesn’t have the sang froid to carry off fashion. I always feel like the dress is wearing her to a certain extent.
I just googled the shoes…
HOLY CRAP.
Holy UGH! Why does she keep doing that?? I see so many photos of her throwing her dress around and, though I know that it is supposed to show off the clothes, she always ends up in some weird pose looking terrible. STOP IT!
The dress is beautiful but too small through the bust, and that cape is Just Plain Too Much, and her hair looks fried. The shoes are utterly ridiculous, and I say this as a woman who owns eight pairs of Swears, which are their own kind of insane. Just because they’re Louboutins doesn’t make it a good idea.
Whenever I see anyone with their boobs hoicked up like that, it says to me that here is a person with not much intellect and even less taste, who thinks that their only worth is as a walking pair of breasts. Pam Anderson and Aubrey O’Day come to mind. That isn’t SJP’s persona – at least it’s not how she comes across to me. I’m not a particular fan of hers, but I don’t think she’s as dim a bulb as this dress makes her look. And it’s actually kind of a pretty dress, if it only fit her better up top. As someone remarked, it may be a little too over the top for the occasion, but even so, its pretty, and could look fairly classy with some adjustments to the size of the bodice.
The shoe is called the Alex Paw Pump. shudder.

I am kind of enjoying her outfit. It’s a little costumey (duh) but the cape looks like red gossamer fun. The shoes are a big N O.
Ok, I just went to the TLo site and had a look at her shoes. Seriously??? Are those some kind of practical joke perpetrated by the shoe designers? I keep imagining them high fiving each other somewhere and chortling that someone actually fell for it and bought them and WORE THEM OUT IN PUBLIC.
What in the name of cucumber sandwiches is holding her bust up there? Or did gravity just decide to give up on the whole outfit? SJP is in her mid-40′s and she’s not that chesty to begin with. While I certainly wouldn’t to wear that kind of engineering, I’d really like to know how it’s done.
I found some pics and the link to the original website showing the details of the “paw” shoes: http://shoerazzi.com/sarah-jessica-parker-in-christian-louboutin-4/
The cape = no.
The hair = no.
The shoes, for the love of God, THE SHOES = NO.
Seriously, WTF?
I like Molly’s comment. Out of everything SJP’s done lately, a Hocus Pocus remake is the only one I’d watch.
Wow. Dracula’s bride.
I think that the dress (sans cape, of course) is gorgeous. Maybe the fit on SJP is a little off, but the bodice and the color are beautiful. The cape – well, enough said.
And the shoes are hysterical…not cute, but so funny. Better than those hoof things Lady Gaga wears, at least.
The Shoe (think lion paws):
http://shoerazzi.com/sarah-jessica-parker-in-christian-louboutin-4/
Where did those breasts come from? Wow. This is one time the dress is wearing her unfortunately. But kudos for having fun with it.
Hocus Pocus II–SJP and the Amazing Levitating Bosom
There must, MUST, be a good explanation.
Like, SJP had to run from her previous engagement (which happened to be a reshoot of the “Total Eclipse Of the Heart” video — in which she’s playing all roles, including the Eclipse and the Heart) to this, with no time to change.
Or to remove labels.
Or to think, “Sweet bowties of Stanford Blatch, what am I doing.”
THE SHOES! *sputtering*
I think she’s trying to be both Red Riding Hood and the Wolf. Like she was going for ironic but veered into Crazy.
Again, oh shoot, I love those paw shoes! The bodice here on SJP is a terrible fit, and no one but an anorexic looking model can wear so much gathering straight at the waist and not end up with hips that look like huge ledges.
Oh, honey! Not you, Sarah!
NO CAPES!!
It has more of a Little-Red-Riding-Hood’s Granma vibe to me.
I just googled the shoes. Add Wolf to the Little-Red-Riding-Hood’s Granma! Holy whatever!
OMG, what TLo said about her crossing the line to Fashion Victim — yes. A thousand times yes.
lose the cape, ditch the ketchup, opaque the bodice. otherwise, it’s great.
@Edna Mode: You said it!
@deee: thanks for posting the link to the shoes. Those are HILARIOUS! Skanky girls everywhere will be buying knockoffs for Halloween!
That is a big shopping bag of sad right there. All of it.
OK…now that I’ve seen the shoes… I get it. I don’t like it….I think it’s scary…. but it’s a theme…. she’s thematic now…..
Well….now that kind of makes me a little sad.
The insectile arm and the Mephistopheles wing behind it, fold them back up.
I’m sorry, but I think she’s lost touch now, and we have to be blunt: We always have to deal with SJP’s suboptimal face on camera, and we extend good faith and do that by not having to be terrified of the rest of it.
I don’t care for this, but you all apparently haven’t leafed through a fashion magazine lately. Every fall issue I’ve gotten is pushing red and capes for the fall.
Those questioning her “fashion icon” status don’t realize that she’s not a “fashion icon” to the everyman, she’s a “fashion icon” because she wears what’s en vogue for fashionistas in the *real* sense of the word.
I often have this problem with the fug girls commentary–they go to fashion week and the deride the woman wearing the clothes for being fugly, when they *know* this is what’s “in” for the fall, spring, what have you. Like those long lace/mesh skirt overlays. Dear god was that pounded on the pages of harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Elle– are you then surprised that starlets are wearing long lace/mesh skirt overlays over a mini? Really? This is what fashion experts are telling them what to do.
it boggles the mind this web site is about “fashion” when it doesn’t even discern or mention fashion trends.
“And this is my invisible friend! She’s a little shy – say hello, Friend!”
@ OK I’m sure the Fug Girls know what the trends are, but the fact is, just because it’s a trend, doesn’t mean YOU SHOULD ACTUALLY WEAR IT. I mean, half the “trends” only make sense on fashion models. Mere moral women can’t wear them. Have you looked at some of the clothes being advertised in Vogue’s September issue? I can appreciate them as high fashion, but they aren’t exactly appropriate (or affordable) in every day life.
If I had been SJP, and I wanted to show how au courant my fashion sense is, I would pick ONE big trend and work that. Not three.
@Autumn Van Weir: Old Red Riding Mole. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Thank you to those who provided a link to the shoes. I gasped out loud when I saw them and immediately thought, as others did, OMG, she’s trying to be both Red Riding Rood AND the wolf!
I don’t get any of the SJP anything
I saw this pic on another site yesterday and was hoping it’d get fugged… simple and effective; good work ladies!
Also – how scary are her boobs??
I think the dress is gorgeous without the cape, which is the way it should be worn off the runway! And, I never thought I’d see the day in which Christian Louboutin would make ugly shoes, but the day has come and I am HORRIFIED!!!
Red is one of the most attractive colours a woman can wear. But it doesn’t ever photograph well. Basically you should, if you’re going to wear that, break up the colour a little bit so that it is less harsh. (see that katie holmes disaster from wheneverago that was) So, if the cape and the dress were different colours, I would not just like this, I would adore it, and if she got rid of the lable and did her hair up, it would look stunning.
I don’t think the shoes are that bad. But maybe that’s because the comments had me expecting pea soup-colored open-toed booties with maroon stripes and eyeballs hanging off them. Or something.
I’ve long wondered; is she “having fun” with her fashion or is she just clueless? This is a costume and that’s fine – she’s an actress but then why not go whole hog and do something more dramatic with the hair and make up? Katy Perry is totally whack but at least she goes all the way!
Uh, yeah.
@Agent Sculder–Thank you. Just because designers/magazines decree something is a ‘trend’ doesn’t mean it isn’t also UGLY. or, as I often say about fashion, “I love the theory, but the execution is terrible.” Red in theory=yes.Capes (if Alfred Hitchcock movie style, not Satan’s bride)=yes. Execution in this case? oh HONEY NO.
Sidenote: Is this the start of the SATC 3 PR campaign? “Watch Carrie take on the Netherworld: After Manhattan, Hell’s no problem!”
Oh yeah, the shoes are terrible. Thanks to people who posted a link.
That’s all fair and good that *you* think something is ugly. I’m not defending this look, because I don’t like it, as I do not like capes, unless we’re going for a totally retro look which I personally still wouldn’t wear, but I can understand.
But SJP is an fashion “it” girl because she wears the “it” fashions– she’s fashion forward, which may be a little much for you or i, but it’s not “fugly” in the sense that it is “fucking ugly.”
My mention of fashion week is that the Fug Girls often say stuff like “I do not understand why people are wearing X” when they *must know* exactly why, and I think it is unfair to not hold the designer to account as well.
I *think* (sadly) that perhaps she is trying to channel Audrey Hepburn’s dress and pose from Funny Face: “Take the picture!” she playfully commands while walking down the Louvre staircase in front of the Nike of Samothrace…In any event, things went horribly awry for our friend SJP.
I can’t even . . . Grr. For someone who always tries to pass herself off as a cultured, thoughtful, smart businesswoman etc . . .this dress really isn’t conveying any of that, is it?
Her face always looks kind of tentative in red carpet pics. Definitely not selling it the way you need to with something this DRAMATIC.
She is Satan’s bride. EXPLAINS EVERYTHING. EV-RY-THING.
This is not her best look. For one thing, it’s too young for her.
@lorik
i honestly think the dress is less fug than the hair.
it is the thesis of GFY to expose how people with money too often unforgivably lose all fashion sense and taste. and in that vein (homage to the vampire-ness) —
if you have 4 people who work on your hair and make up before every public showing, then you have AT LEAST *one* you could fire after they gently pointed out that maybe there was an “option two” for the hair. at which point the remaining three stylists could distract ms.- i-have-too-many-names with something shiny like the keys to SJP’s shoe closets while they did something decent with those (never really deserving a) trademark dirty blonde locks.
i mean. ICK. just ICK.
