Sarah Jessica Parker, synonymous with fashion and friendship, adored Oscar de la Renta. The Sex and the City star wore the late designer’s clothes on many a red carpet, and she also counted the industry icon, who passed away Monday at the age of 82, as a personal friend. In a heartfelt tribute published in The Hollywood Reporter, Parker writes about the “otherworldly” man with many talents. Parker also writes about how it “was a huge deal for Carrie, her beloved Sex and the City character to wear an Oscar de la Renta dress” on the show. Parker also wrote about how she fondly remembers de la Renta as “a muscular singer” who “delighted in any opportunity to create a festive environment.”
