When Prabal Gurung set out to make beautiful, well-made clothes seven seasons ago, he never imagined he’d garner attention from the likes of Sarah Jessica Parker and Amanda Seyfried. “There are so many options out there, and for [SJP] to choose mine, it’s incredible,” he told InStyle.com at a celebration of the New York Times‘s “50 Photographs” collection in Manhattan on Wednesday.

And while early Prabal adopters included Zoe Saldana and Demi Moore, it’s Hollywood’s continued support that leaves the designer humbled. “I really feel grateful and amazed,” he gushed. “I hope that in 20 or 30 years, I still feel as excited about it. Not just [Parker], but with any girl who chooses my clothes.”

Sarah Jessica Parker Offers to ‘Show You Mine’ in New AIDS PSA

First recognized by the Centers for Disease Control in 1981, AIDS has plagued our world for 30 years now. To draw attention to the tragic anniversary — and reignite support for the cause — designer Kenneth Cole, chairman of amfAR, partnered with MTV International’s Staying Alive Foundation to reinterpret the classic red AIDS ribbon.

Cole’s double ribbon is available now on Gilt.com, and 100 percent of net profits will benefit AWEARNESS, the Kenneth Cole Foundation, in support of the Staying Alive Foundation and amfAR. And to promote the pin, a slew of celebrities — including Sarah Jessica Parker and Cyndi Lauper — recently filmed a PSA for the cause (above), urging people to continue supporting AIDS and HIV research.

Sarah Jessica Parker’s Hat: Love It or Hate It?

Sarah Jessica Parker‘s sartorial choices are usually spot-on, but sometimes even the most flawless fashionista has a miss. That’s what appears to have happened to the I Don’t Know How She Does It star on Wednesday during an interview at a ladies luncheon at the Palladium in Melbourne, Australia.

Wearing a bronze Chanel tweed dress and Manolo Blahnik pumps, according to Red Carpet Fashion Awards, Parker chose to accessorize with a Philip Treacy hat that, while a work of art, possibly overwhelmed her small stature. Treacy, a famed British milliner, was responsible for several hats at the royal wedding in April, and recently helped elect the Duchess of Cambridge as the U.K.’s best-dressed star.

Down Under to support her latest film and celebrate the Melbourne Cup Carnival, Parker has stayed dependably stylish during this latest press tour — just as she did while promoting the movie throughout the U.S. and Europe earlier this year. So the hat — while possibly controversial to style watchers — is likely just a small mark on her otherwise top-notch fashion report card. Tell us: What do you think of Parker’s hat?

Leopard is one of fall’s hottest trends, but less-fearless fashionistas have been sneaking it in with bags and belts. Not so these stars, who have committed full-out to the trend, sporting it in style with Current/Elliott’s red-hot “Leopard Stiletto” jeans.

The skinny style, which retails for $198, comes in two washes, a camel and a faded gray, which render the bold-print neutral enough to pair with a variety of looks. From left, Sarah Jessica Parker wore hers with a satin trench to take in a performance; Isla Fisher added a pop of color with bright flats; Mandy Moore topped hers with a loose-fitting tank; and Katie Holmes hit a concert in hers wearing a Nantucket red boyfriend sweater.

We do know how she does it: with killer fashion instincts, a delicate frame and a very bright smile. Sarah Jessica Parker has spent the week promoting her new film, I Don’t Know How She Does It, in Moscow and London, looking super stylish along the way.

On Sunday, Parker visited Moscow’s Manolo Blahnik store (so Carrie Bradshaw of her!) in a charming, strapless white Chanel dress trimmed with red-and-pink accents. Wednesday, she surfaced in London in a pink Chanel Haute Couture jacket with embroidered sleeves (topped off with major bun); that same day, she sported a flowing taupe frock covered up with a cropped yellow blazer, also by Chanel.
