Even 12 years after Sex and the City concluded, Sarah Jessica Parker is still turning heads with her fashion-forward sartorial choices. Last night, SJP wore a look straight from Valentino’s fall/winter 2016 runway, which paired a navy blue shirt under a transparent plastic-studded dress. This trend of wearing a shirt under a dress has been gaining momentum lately, and Sarah’s look last night solidified it. The look’s also been spotted on the runway at both Kenzo and Jacquemus’ fall/winter shows and on model Kendall Jenner. But, now that SJP’s worn it, you know it’s the real deal and the trend is here to stay.

Ahead, shop our looks and see how you can get a jumpstart on the trend this summer.
