Fans react to bonkers And Just Like That detail: ‘Unhinged'
Now that's a real statement-maker.
A year after Sarah Jessica Parker gave fans a preview of her character Carrie Bradshaw's divisive wardrobe in season three of And Just Like That, and the episode containing the offending hat finally aired on May 29.
The topper in question — a voluminous, floppy gingham look from Maryam Keyhani (A$797) — has been described as 'unhinged' and akin to the shape of Strawberry Shortcake's signature pink style, reports Page Six.
In a scene strolling around Washington Square Park in New York City with co-star Sarita Choudhury, Parker wore the outlandish piece with a colourful vintage '70s tiered Ossie Clark dress and Dr. Scholl's wooden slides.
'I saw the hat and wanted it on my head,' Parker told US Weekly in a video interview yesterday. 'We pretty much just put stuff on my head and photograph it, and hope that Michael Patrick [King] is hospitable to the idea,' she added, referring to the show's creator.
The actress, 60, added that the aforementioned frock reminded her of Neapolitan ice cream.
'It felt incomplete, as dresses often do once you've put a lot of hats on your head, you feel like it's missing its punctuation point,' Parker, whose character is known for her quirky headwear collection, explained.
Apparently, King was supportive of the billowy hat. 'I feel we've really worn him down,' Parker said. 'His eyes have adapted to large-scale things on heads now, so he's pretty generous about how often they can appear.'
But, of course, fans of the HBO show weren't as supportive of SJP's choice of headwear.
'Carrie Bradshaw in a stupid hat we are so back,' one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Another said, 'I can get behind the wildest of Carrie's fashion choices but this duvet cover of a hat is truly unhinged.'
'Now Carrie, what the helly is this hat?' a third jokingly questioned.
Others, however, didn't hate the look. 'this hat is amazing. I hope everyone gets one this summer,' another user posted.
It's safe to assume Carrie will deliver many more controversial fashion moments this season.

In Australia, the financial year begins on June 1 and ends on June 30 the following year. As June 30 approaches, many businesses will offer exciting discounts to clear old stock before the new financial year begins. Now known as the end of financial year sales, this a time where shoppers can score amazing discounts on must-have items in fashion, beauty, home and tech. WHEN ARE THE END OF FINANCIAL YEAR SALES IN 2024? There's no official start date for the EOFY sales like Click Frenzy or the Black Friday sales, which always falls on the last Friday of November. Typically most major retailers will start to kick off the savings from June 1, but this doesn't stop some from starting early or starting much later, closer to June 30. There's no set run time, and you'll find each retailer does things a little differently. Some will run the sale for the entire month of June, whereas others will pick just a few key days or a week to promote their EOFY sales. Generally speaking, all the sales will be over once June 30 rolls around. Don't forget to sign up to our free shopping newsletter – you'll get it delivered to your inbox every single week.

Aussie transgender model stuns in tiny bikini at Miami Swim Week
Sydney's own Riley Minford has taken to the international fashion stage, making her global runway debut at Miami Swim Week on Sunday. The 28-year-old transgender model wowed the crowd as she strutted down the Oh Polly catwalk, calling the experience a 'dream come true'. Minford, who is half Filipino, flaunted her bronzed abs in a series of barely-there swimsuits, including a striking red cut-out one-piece and a daring white bikini that left little to the imagination. 'I was absolutely terrified, but I got on that runway and ate it up,' she told Daily Telegraph about walking in the iconic swimwear show. From strutting around in her mum's shoes as a little boy to landing one of the most iconic modelling gigs in the world, the influencer, who boasts 75k followers, shared her gratitude for the milestone moment and the acceptance she has received in the industry. Minford claimed she felt like 'an Aussie baddie' while walking for the show, and she couldn't be prouder to represent her country on the world stage. 'It felt so special being flown across the world to walk and I hope I did my duty,' she told the publication. Sharing a slow motion clip of her walking the runway to Instagram, Minford wrote, 'You can call me Miss Miami Swim until further notice'. Fellow influencer Izi Angus wrote: 'Holyyyyyy', while Lily Brown added: 'Go baby!' Other friends called her 'A damn icon' and said they were 'speechless'. Praise continued to flood the post, with Dominique Ellissa saying she was 'SCREAMING' after seeing the video, and Isabelle Mathers calling her a 'supermodel'. 'Adriana Lima is that you?' another fan asked. The moment marks a major step for the Aussie beauty, who's quickly making a name for herself in the modelling world. Her breakthrough comes amid a wave of growing inclusivity in fashion, following last year's landmark moment when Valentina Sampaio and Alex Consani became the first transgender women to walk the Victoria's Secret runway. Minford has previously opened up about the struggles she had growing up and not feeling at peace in her body. 'In (primary school), I didn't want to sit with the boys, but I wasn't allowed to go with the girls, even though I knew that was the side I was meant to be on,' she told Beauticate. 'It wasn't even so much the response from the other kids, as it was how awful I felt within myself, and not being able to express my own identity.' Despite managing to avoid a lot of bullying, she said her experience still 'wasn't easy'. She struggled with her identity until high school, which is when she finally felt she had more freedom to explore the different sides of herself. After high school, she transitioned with the full support of her parents. She feels like the process was 'flawless' and she is now able to 'fly under the radar' if she wanted to.
