…Realistically nobody, she's a fictional character out of action since 2010. HOWEVER, when we spotted Gwyneth Paltrow's statement corsage and slicked back locks, her look just screamed 'Bradshaw' to us. So we couldn't help but wonder, if Carrie DID have a say in Oscars styling, whose outfits could she have put together?
Just picture the scene, Hollywood's finest lining up down the steps of Carrie's impossibly lush NY apartment, while Ms B invites them in one at a time to take a twirl in her closet of wonders.
First, the aforementioned Gwyneth. She would have told Carrie she was a little nervous about the statement bloom, Bradshaw would have waggled a finger at the waspy blonde and told her it's all in the smile.
Good job, Paltrow...
PS. In Carrie-land there's no such thing as too-big-a-fashion statement, I mean, she did put a bird on her head.
Next into the heavenly closet steps Keira Knightley. Dressing a baby bump? No problem. This moment calls for feminine nudes, frills and floral embroidery, worn with soft flowing curls. Valentino served with a virgin Cosmopolitan, coming right up.
(Here's one she styled earlier...)
Carrie's final customer is one Margot Robbie, who won the red carpet with a sheer draped Saint Laurent number. As every Bradshaw enthusiast knows, Carrie's keys to success is all in the pulling together of a look, the addition of detail that brings a look from ordinary to extraordinary.
In the vein of Carrie's theatre date with post-it-bearing-Prada-shirt-wearing Berger, Margot's draped black gown was made extraordinary with the addition of some serious tassel, a good hair side sweep and a strong beauty look. Would Carrie wear coral lips? No, no, no. Would she put Margot in coral? Oh, yes, yes, yes.
And now, to sit back and judge all the poor unfortunate souls who didn't have Carrie's help last night...
