Sex and the City is unequivocally the most influential show to have ever aired on the HBO network, as well as a series that has heavily contributed to controversial conversations of the femme body, safe sex, and femme sexuality. The popular TV show follows the lives of four friends and their slew of romantic relationships and sexual escapades. In addition to the show’s feminist discourse material and the promiscuous excursions the women experience whilst living in Manhattan, the infamous series is widely known for its fashion influence in the 2000s. The Manolo Blahnik, big fur coats, the Fendi Baguette bag, and nameplate necklaces are just a few accessory and clothing staples that dominated both streetwear and the high fashion world for quite some time. With the chilly fall weather and cold winter months of New York City, Sex and the City offered us incredible autumn and fashion for six seasons. Here are 15 fall/winter outfits from Sex and the City to recreate.
Carrie Bradshaw is a Gemini, a writer, and, without a doubt, a 90s/2000s fashion icon. This winter outfit consists of a classic black coat with animal print cuffs and knee-high boots. While finding animal print cuffs on a coat is difficult, to recreate this look, animal print cuffed gloves should do the trick. This look is effortless, with Carrie wearing the clothes and not the other way around.

Miranda Hobbes is arguably the most avant-garde and eccentric dresser out of the bunch. This puffer coat and overalls ensemble is perfect for the fall and is definitely ahead of its time. The hat and shoes are the perfect touches in making this outfit an on the go look.

Charlotte Goldenblatt is definitely the most conservative dresser out of the quartet. However, Charlotte’s pink jacket in the series flipped the audiences’ narrative of the character on its head. The jacket managed to catch viewers’ attention and keep the fashion on the show interesting. This look is super cute, chic, and of its time.

Samantha’s fur interior winter coat paired with a belt would simply be bland if it wasn’t for the bright, floral pants, red gloves, and gold shoes she wears it with. This coat looks super warm and super needed as the days get colder from fall to winter.

Miranda fashions a slightly varying and layered brown top in the Sex and the City movie and there is something intriguing about the piece. It well-suits Miranda and is one of her most fashionable looks in the movie and show. The drop sleeve, belt, and scarf for sure make this earthy, autumn look.
