She may not have always known relationships, but one thing about Carrie Bradshaw, played by Sarah Jessica Parker in the hit show Sex and the City, is that she knew fashion. Though the show first aired in 1998, her style had a certain je ne sais quoi, a mix between feminine and fun, that is still just as fabulous today. This is why we decided to round up 20 Carrie Bradshaw-inspired dress picks for spring — so you can channel Bradshaw’s city girl style in 2025.
Bradshaw had so many iconic dresses on the show, and we found many spring lookalikes for her most famous styles below. From her jaw-dropping “naked” dress to even her notable newspaper-print dress, we were able to find similar versions of everything. And because we know Bradshaw always loved a good thrift find, they even start at just $15.
