Was it Sarah Jessica Parker’s idea?
“I personally love hats on Carrie. I love it,” Parker shared with the news outlet.
She stated that the moment she saw it, she told the team, “How do I get that on my head?”
Highlighting that the hat was “massive and shapeless,” Parker went on to say that milliners usually avoid working with linen since it is “an enemy of shape and form”.
“I loved it (hat)… So I was just like, ‘We’ve got to find a place for this, ‘” she added.
As the hat drew polarizing reactions, Parker told the media outlet she “never thought twice” about people’s response to it. She added that she had earlier thought it to be a “fun or interesting” decision.
This was not the first time Parker spoke about the viral hat. In May, she told Glamour that she never knew it would become a whole “thing.”
“You could have told me that hat was three by four. I would’ve felt the same,” she stated.
