And Just Like That: Carrie Rocks Denim and Knit In Season 3, and I love it. August 8, 2025 03:30 1 Comment
I have frankly not always been in love with Carrie's outfits on And Just Like That. (Which is, by the way, my favorite hate-watch. These women! Aidan, goodbye and good riddance!) Even with this ensemble, though, there are definitely benefits — the denim skirt with a 1940s influence, the knit top that seems very comfortable — there are also details that make me cringe. For instance, the hem on the skirt. I am really quite exhausted with unfinished hems. I am so done with them. Enough with the frayed denim. Just go away, like Aidan.
If you'd like to duplicate, or at least reference, this outfit, allow me to suggest these two beauties: McCall 7088 from 1947. Perfect vintage choice for the skirt. For the top, I think Vogue Paris Original 1604. While not an exact copy, it certainly references the top, with its low neckline and neckline binding. Truly. And, really, who can resist Sonia Rykiel from the 1970s? Not this grrl. No Way. Absolutely. I won't even try.

It’s amazing how skirt shapes span the decades… that is an amazing ruffle going around the waist!
I haven’t thought about Sonia Rykiel in a while. She did amazing knitwear — her famous stripey sweaters from the 80’s. This pattern has interesting seaming. That skirt yoke has pockets!
I love the juxtaposition of these two patterns! You have a unique vision!
