SATC Wardrobe A Who's Who

What will the Golden Girls Sex and the City sluts be wearing in the upcoming movie? That's a question the fashion media is scrambling to answer lately, in hopes of being the first to nail down and trumpet a trend.
On the movie set, $20 million in jewels and couture wardrobe required security to be quadrupled.
What I want to know is, how many of the brands who payed, begged and BJed their way into the SATC closet really believe they'll be emptying shelves based on this placement? Does anyone really give a fuck what a bunch of neurotic 50 year olds are zipping up over their Spanx?
Granted, Carrie Bradshaw has kicked off a trend or two in her day. But the bulk of the money is made by the companies knocking off the million dollar look.
Too bad this movie comes out on the heels of a huge counterfeit bust that shut down Canal Street's thriving knockoff business. It's truly a loss of the great equalizer, isn't it? No matter how much some uptown bitch spent on a Louis Vuitton purse, Shenequah from Queens still had one that looked just like it sitting in the break room at Taco Bell.
And that, to me, made things right in the world.
