The trials and tribulations of SJP

SJP in the infamous dress worn more than once

Sarah Jessica Parker has been wronged. It’s so horrible, so unspeakable that I’m not even sure I can write about it. Okay, deep breath. Here goes. She had to a wear a dress that –gasp!- was worn my someone else!

The new Sex and the City movie is all anyone can talk about. And along with the movie comes fashion. If you know anything about the show it’s that it has five stars: the four main characters and the fashions they wear. From shoes to hair and everything in between these four characters have been trend setters for year. So I guess it’s only normal that such a big stink was created surrounding SJP and her recycled dress.

The New York Times has reported that the Nina Ricci frock worm by Sarah Jessica to the Sex and the City premiere had previously been worn by socialite Lauren Santo Domingo. And if that wasn’t bad enough Lindsay Lohan also wore the dress in an ad campaign for Disney. (Lohan and Disney. That’s even weirder that Lohan and Sam )

Once she found out that instead of the first she was actually the third person to wear the gown, Sarah Jessica had the following to say:

“It’s just unethical and disappointing that they would allow the dress to be worn again.”

Unethical? Really Sarah Jessica? Now, I would say maybe unethical was a bit too strong of a word to use in this instance. How about embarrassing? How about maybe you should have asked more questions about the dress, like, was it worn before? Or, instead of throwing a hissy fit why not turn the press around and say that it’s better for the environment if clothing is worn more than, oh, once? And seriously, who cares? Most of us wear the same shirt twice a week. Some times three if we’re busy.
