Sarah Jessica Parker’s Best Met Gala Looks Through the Years

Sarah Jessica Parker is a fixture at the Met Gala and a fashion fan favorite. Indeed, SJP is the belle of each annual ball she attends.

Over the decades, she’s developed a reputation for being one to watch on the carpet, from her matching tartan with Alexander McQueen in 2006 to her Nativity Scene headpiece in 2018, which was inspired by the “Heavenly Bodies” costume exhibit.

Parker made her Met Gala debut in 1995. Sure, the theme may have been “Haute Couture,” but even in a thrifted black velvet dress, she still managed to look like a million bucks. (All the more impressive is the fact that she did her own hair and makeup that year.)

Since then, the Sex and the City star has continued to raise the sartorial bar. For 2013’s “Punk: Chaos to Couture” affair, the actress looked appropriately edgy in an abstract Giles Deacon creation and a larger-than-life Philip Treacy mohawk-shaped headpiece.

Fast-forward to 2022, Parker dressed for the “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion” theme in an elaborate gingham Christopher John Rogers gown that paid homage to Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley, the first Black female fashion designer to work in the White House.
