Sarah Jessica Parker: Fashion Is Her Middle Name
With a 1)flirty1 sense of style and delightful2 good looks, Sarah Jessica Parker 2)personifies the all-American girl: free-spirited and self-confident, whatever fashion may be in 3)vogue3. While Sarah Jessica appreciates high-end designs, she is fearless when it comes to mixing it up and taking chances.
Through her hit series "Sex and the City? she has 4)synergised the worlds of fashion and Hollywood. Her character Carrie Bradshaw has influenced some of the biggest trends in recent years.
Raised in Ohio with seven brothers and sisters, Sarah Jessica discovered her passion for dancing and performing while attending the Professional Children's School. Then in 1978, at the age of 13, she won the 5)prestigious4 role of Little Orphan5 Annie on Broadway. Yet the stage was merely her opening act, it was the NBC 6)sitcom6 "Square Pegs7" that put Sarah Jessica on the radar8, though her 7)quirky character Patty Greene was a far cry from the elegant and 8)eccentric girl we know today. The mid-80's saw Sarah Jessica emerging as a young 9)starlet in films such as Footloose and First Born. Her fashion sense was perfect for the decade: big hair and cowboy boots.
Sarah: I kinda believe that it's good to want a lot, you know; to have high standards and believe in great things.
Proving that dreams do come true, in 1995 Sarah Jessica returned as a presenter9 at the Academy Awards wearing Calvin Klein. It was Calvin Klein's clean lines and simple cuts that Sarah Jessica admired. She credits Klein for her early 10)foray into high fashion.
Sarah: I love wearing beautiful clothes and I love living in New York because we have seasons and you can wear clothes. And you can, you know...you endlessly have to come up with stuff to keep warm.
Success gave Sarah Jessica self-confidence and she began experimenting with her 11)wardrobe. Her creative inspiration was the timeless style of Audrey Hepburn. Ms. Hepburn was loved for her classic beauty and Ms. Parker had a beauty all her own. With her career on solid ground, she focused on her love-life and her relationship with Matthew Broderick. The pair have been together ever since. They proved that opposites attract when they wed10 in 1998. Later that year she signed on to play New York City sex columnist11 Carrie Bradshaw in the HBO series "Sex and the City" It marked the beginning of a new era for fashion, television and Sarah Jessica herself.
By 1999, "Sex and the City" had turned Sarah Jessica into a household name, and her stylish12 character Carrie Bradshaw was setting new trends in fashion every week. Off screen, her real-life love affair with fashion was flourishing and her taste in clothes was finer than ever. With her new superstar status came a 12)slew13 of award show invitations and recognition for her talent. When she took the prize for Best Actress in a TV Comedy at the 1999 Golden Globes, her look was simple and sophisticated: she wore a strapless Donna Karan 13)gown.
Not content to just star in "Sex and the City" Sarah Jessica became one of the show's executive producers. In this position she realized the importance of her character's wardrobe and the impact it had on the way women across the country were getting dressed.
By 2002 Sarah Jessica had finally made the A-list. From her hugely successful series to her countless14 golden moments, she was a powerful force in Hollywood and fashion. She chose basic black for the Golden Globes; the Chanel design, however, was anything but basic.
Sarah Jessica's figure was about to change too; she and Mathew were expecting their first child in the fall. Pregnancy15 gave Sarah Jessica yet another opportunity to show off her unique sense of style. Her pregnancy didn't keep her away from the latest collections in New York.
Hollywood's sweetheart has proven her remarkable16 talent for acting17 while showing off her adorable face, stunning18 hair and witty19 charm. This Hollywood starlet has made fashion fun, her confidence and charm bring life to every outfit20 she puts on. She has redefined what is beautiful with her unconventional features and striking hair. Sarah Jessica Parker has captured our hearts while making her 14)fanciful mark in the world of high fashion and 15)glamour: Sarah Jessica Parker is a style star!

莎拉·杰西卡·帕克：站在时尚的风口浪尖
凭着性感的时尚气息和开朗姣好的面容，莎拉·杰西卡·帕克成为典型美国女孩的化身--崇尚自由，在任何时装潮流中都自信心十足。虽然莎拉·杰西卡喜欢高档的设计，但有时她也敢大胆尝试一下混搭风格。
通过她主演的热门电视剧集《欲望都市》，她给时装界和好莱坞注入了一剂强心针。她饰演的角色卡丽·布拉德肖已经影响到了近几年一些最主要的潮流走向。
在俄亥俄州长大的莎拉·杰西卡有七个兄弟姐妹，她在考进儿童演艺专科学校后发现自己对舞蹈和表演情有独钟。1978年，年仅13岁的她就得以在百老汇剧院饰演《孤女安妮》中那个享有盛誉的小女孩。然而舞台表演让她崭露头角，让莎拉·杰西卡的名字广为人知的，是美国全国广播公司的情景喜剧《憨夫成龙》。不过她所饰演的古怪角色贝蒂·格林与现在大家眼里这个高雅别致、特立独行的女子大相径庭。在《浑身是劲》和《初生》等电影中，莎拉·杰西卡成为80年代中期一颗冉冉升起的新星。在那个年代，披着蓬松的头发、踩着牛仔靴的她对时尚的感觉完美无比。
莎拉: 我认为不轻易满足，也就是追求高标准和美好的事物是件好事。
美梦的确有成真的一天，1995年莎拉作为颁奖人以一身卡文·克莱恩的服装出现在奥斯卡颁奖礼上。莎拉·杰西卡对卡文·克莱恩利落的线条和简约的剪裁情有独钟，她称卡文·克莱恩是她最初爱上高级名牌时装的缘由。
莎拉: 我喜欢穿漂亮衣服，我也喜欢住在纽约。因为这里四季分明，可穿各种各样的衣服，你可以，嗯，为了保暖你也得不停地弄点什么穿穿。
成功给莎拉·杰西卡带来了自信，她开始尝试改变自己的服装。她富于创造力的灵感来自于奥黛丽·赫本那种永不过时的品位风格。人们喜爱赫本的古典美，而莎拉·杰西卡的美却与众不同。事业稳定之后她全身心地投入到与马修·柏德瑞克的感情生活之中，两人比翼双飞，互相吸引，并于1998年喜结良缘。同年，婚后不久，她与美国HBO家庭影院频道签约，在其电视剧集《欲望都市》里饰演纽约市的性爱专栏作家卡丽·布拉德肖。对时尚界、电视圈和莎拉·杰西卡本人来说，这标志着一个新纪元的开始。
1999年，《欲望都市》让莎拉·杰西卡成为家喻户晓的人物，她饰演的时髦角色卡丽·布拉德肖引领着每周的时装趋势。屏幕外的她在真实生活中对时装也是至爱有加，对服装的品味比以前更加出众。因为她成为超级明星，各种颁奖晚会的邀请函蜂拥而至，她的才华也得到了认可。当她在1999年的金球奖上接过电视喜剧最佳女主角的奖座时，她穿着一袭无吊带的唐娜·卡伦礼服，外观简约大方却又不落俗套。
不满足于只在《欲望都市》中担任角色，莎拉还成为该片的一名监制。通过这项工作，她意识到，衣着对她所饰演角色起着十分重要的作用，它几乎对全美女性的着装都产生了影响。
2002年莎拉·杰西卡终于成功地跻身精英人士。从她大获成功的电视剧集到无数光彩照人时刻，她成为好莱坞和时装界举足轻重的人物。她穿着传统黑色的香奈尔参加了金球奖颁奖礼，颜色虽然传统，但设计却十分时尚。
莎拉·杰西卡的体形也要发生改变了。她和马修的第一个孩子预计在秋天降生。怀孕为莎拉·杰西卡创造了另一个炫耀其独一无二品味的机会。怀孕并未让她远离纽约最新的品牌服饰。
这位好莱坞的宠儿在展示她可爱的面容、漂亮的头发和机智的魅力的同时，还向人们证实了她在表演方面的非凡才华。这位前途无量的好莱坞明星让时装变得充满乐趣。她的自信与魅力使得她身上的每件衣服都熠熠生辉。她用非比寻常的容貌和惹人注目的头发对美丽进行了重新定义。莎拉·杰西卡·帕克在高级时装界不可思议地闯出名堂的同时也俘虏了我们的心。莎拉·杰西卡·帕克就是一位时尚明星！
