Kim Cattrall and Patricia Field have reunited to collaborate on Netflix’s new series “Glamorous,” where Cattrall will play a famous model-turned-makeup mogul. Field was the iconic “Sex and the City” costume designer who dressed Cattrall as Samantha Jones, and they have remained good friends. While Field has said that she butted heads with male producers who wanted Samantha to wear revealing outfits, she dressed the character in bold-shouldered blazers and bright colors to showcase her power subtly.
Kim Cattrall has reunited with “Sex and the City” costume designer Patricia Field to collaborate on the wardrobe for Cattrall’s new Netflix series “Glamorous”.
Fashion fans and “Sex and the City” enthusiasts may be disappointed to hear that both Kim Cattrall and Patricia Field have opted out of the highly anticipated reboot, “And Just Like That,” on HBO Max. However, the talented duo has collaborated on another exciting small-screen project that is sure to excite their fans.
Cattrall is set to star in Netflix’s upcoming series “Glamorous,” in which she portrays a famous model-turned-makeup mogul, and Field has been brought on to handle the show’s wardrobe. “It’s another character,” Field recently explained. “The sexy silhouette is part of it, definitely. It’s something we established on ‘Sex and the City,’ and it’s very signature [Cattrall]. It comes naturally for her; she looks great that way.”
Field has been candid about her time as the costume designer for “Sex and the City,” especially when it came to dressing Cattrall’s character, Samantha. According to Field, the show’s male producers wanted Samantha to wear skimpy outfits and plunging necklines at all times. However, Field opted for bold-shouldered blazers, bright colors, and metallics to convey Samantha’s power without objectifying the character.
Cattrall and Field’s friendship has continued long after “Sex and the City,” and they have remained supportive of each other’s projects. However, Field has admitted that not everyone she worked with on “Sex and the City” was easy to handle. Field recalled John Corbett’s character, Aidan, who will return for Season 2 of “And Just Like That.” According to Field, Corbett arrived on set with “heavy pieces of turquoise jewelry” after finishing a “cowboy-esque” TV series. Although Field persuaded Corbett to ditch a few pieces of jewelry, she emphasized the importance of making the actors feel good in their costumes.
Overall, Cattrall and Field’s new collaboration is generating plenty of buzz, and fans can’t wait to see the glamorous looks they will create for Cattrall’s character on “Glamorous.”
