Sarah Jessica Parker Credits Fight for Viral And Just Like That Hat

Sarah Jessica Parker took credit for the viral bonnet-style "cloud hat" worn by her character Carrie Bradshaw in the third season of And Just Like That…, revealing that it was her idea to include the massive gingham hat designed by Maryam Keyhani. Parker, who loves hats on Carrie, noticed the oversized linen hat during a fitting and insisted on convincing showrunner Michael Patrick King that it was necessary and not distracting for the scene. Despite initial hesitation, King eventually agreed after Parker wore him down, and he later likened the hat to "the Hindenburg balloon" on Carrie's head. The hat sparked mixed reactions online, with some viewers calling it ridiculous, but Parker never doubted its impact, describing it as fun and interesting. The choice of the hat added a whimsical and unhinged fashion moment to the series, which ended with season three as the story had reached its conclusion. Parker’s enthusiasm for bold headwear on Carrie has contributed to memorable style moments in the series’ run.
