SATC: Vive la Différence!

We loved Sex and the City for its singular originality. So why would film promoters color coordinate its stars? Cynthia Nixon looks positively schoolmarmish in her what-the-hell-are-they-making-me-wear puffed sleeves. The only flattering frock in the bunch is on SJP. And it looks like the number we wore to prom.

The SATC women do much better when they’re able to dress themselves (or have their stylists dress them), as they did Monday night. Here are Cynthia, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis looking radiant at a benefit for the Point Foundation in New York City.

Cynthia appears relaxed and lovely. Cattrall looks half her age, and we love the tribal chic thing SJP has going around her neck. The only questionable one in the bunch is Davis. The LBD is fine, but black tights with silver shoes? Kristin, if a house falls on you, SJP is totally going to jack your kicks and march off to Oz.
