The sheer dress, featuring roses tucked into the pockets, was paired with a matching see-through coat with bubble sleeves adorned with roses. The look was completed with nude heels.

Some commenters thought this outfit was not the best representation of a more mature Carrie. “Yeah, why did they assume her style would be like this in her 50s?” asked one commenter. Another added, “She’s too old.” One person disliked the outfit entirely, saying, “Clothes are horrible, terrible fashion.”

Parker does not only showcase her show-stopping looks through her onscreen characters but in some of her public appearances as well. This year, the actress stole the show at the Met Gala.

Her outfit not only dazzled in line with the theme "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" but also effortlessly embodied the event's official dress code, "Garden of Time."

Observers jokingly referenced her dress's whimsical nature, by writing, "Ma'am, the Kentucky Derby was yesterday." Another teased, "Off to the races," while a witty netizen pondered aloud, "I began to wonder: was I really dressing for the Met, or was I late to the Kentucky Derby? Love it."

Parker's look wasn't just a crowd-pleaser; it was also the product of a thoughtful collaboration with Quinn, pushing the "Garden of Time" dress code to its limits.

She got the idea to approach Quinn after "And Just Like That…" series costume designer Molly Rogers suggested involving the British designer in the show’s season three costumes.

Parker first drew inspiration from some artworks at the Sargent and Fashion exhibit at Tate Britain. But she felt that Quinn's collection captured the Met's theme perfectly. "His most recent collection coincidentally had pieces that, in many ways, communicated or inferred the Met theme as we understood it," she said.

According to Quinn, the wireframe was essential for the birdcage style, with hand-cut lace added to give it a floral feel. Crystals sparkling across the lace emphasized the idea of preservation and showed Quinn's love for timeless fashion.

“With this dress, we wanted to play on the idea of preservation; the dress appears so fragile as to be almost ephemeral, but with care and consideration it has been built to last," said Quinn.
