Quick Picks: Sarah Jessica Parker looks like a million bucks in a cheap dress

Filed under: Celebrities with Style



Celebrities always say they are so super involved in the design process of their fashion lines and how much they love their clothes and blah blah blah. Which begs the question -- why do celebrities hardly ever wear clothes from their own lines?

But Sarah Jessica Parker proved us wrong when she rocked out in an adorable strapless flower print dress from her own Bitten line. And you'll never guess how much that bad boy costs -- $8.98! So yes, SJP wore a dress that cost less than ten bucks to a major premiere with a lot of press.

She gets it. Sarah said, "It seems like there is some justice in that, doesn't it? For a lot of people - young women, middle-age women, regular women - there is this idea about wanting fashion in an affordable way. They are living in a less rarefied world."

And don't worry, just because the clothes are cheap doesn't mean they're made in sweatshops. Clothes are produced ethically. Instead the company keeps costs down by not doing a lot of advertising and opening stores in malls that are struggling, where they're more likely to find great deals on rent.
