Talk about perfect timing. Yesterday, on what was the 15th anniversary of the premiere of Sex and the City, Sarah Jessica Parker announced that she’s got a fashion line in the works.
“I really hope people like it. We’ll see,” Parker told Footwear News of her SJP label, which will hit the shelves at Nordstrom early next year.
For her inaugural collection, Parker focused on footwear, no surprise considering that as the well-heeled Carrie Bradshaw she helped turn Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo and Christian Louboutin into household names. “Because I got to play that role, I wore a lot of shoes, and by default I learned an enormous amount,” the actress told Vogue. “It’s hard to – no pun intended – walk away from that.” Parker’s business partner is George Malkemus, who is the CEO of Manolo Blahnik.
The Spring 2014 line will include 35 to 40 styles of flats and high heels priced between $200 and $300. “I have to know that we’re producing shoes I’m going to wear,” Parker told FN. “I’m not going to try and sell someone shoes that aren’t going to be good enough for me to wear myself.” But wait, didn’t Parker say she’d sworn off heels?

Angelina Jolie walked the red carpet in support of fiance Brad Pitt at the world premiere of World War Z in London yesterday, making her first public appearance since undergoing a double mastectomy last February.
Asked by one reporter how it felt to be back on the red carpet, Jolie expressed gratitude for the support she has received since revealing the news in a New York Times column last month, but did her best to steer the conversation back to Pitt. ”It’s Brad’s night… I’m very excited for Brad and I think it’s a very fun film. And my boys are around somewhere tonight, so they’re enjoying it,” the actress told Sky News. Asked how Pitt has supported her through her ordeal, Jolie replied: “He’s been extraordinary. He’s a wonderful man and a wonderful father, and I’m very, very lucky.”
Wearing minimal makeup, Jolie looked stunning in a Saint Laurent gown in her signature black — Who could forget the vision of Angelina’s right leg framed by her Atelier Versace gown she wore to last year’s Academy Awards or the Elvira-inspired Versace dress she was wearing when she picked up the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2000?
