Sarah Jessica Parker, 56, has slipped back into the off-the-rack sundress that recently caused quite a stir among Carrie Bradshaw fans.
The Sex and the City actress was seen in the ensemble shooting the HBO reboot, And Just Like That…, with costar Cynthia Nixon, 55, in Manhattan on Thursday.

During the scene this week, Carrie and Miranda were seen in deep conversation filming on the steps of the Grant Memorial in uptown Manhattan.
Sarah was back in the controversial paisley printed sundress that caused such a hoopla several weeks back taping another scene from presumably the same day – as Carrie doesn’t dare repeat outfits.
SJP paired the layered look once more with a pricy Gucci x Balenciaga bag and chunky platform heels with her blonde tresses in a braid, coiffed by hair stylist Serge Normant.
Meanwhile, alongside her, actress Cynthia Nixon looked put together in a long-sleeved sky blue top tucked into a patchy chambray maxi skirt and a pair of denim ballet flats.

When Parker first appeared on the set of And Just Like That … in the bohemian dress in late July it was identified by the And Just Like That Closet, an Instagram fan account, as a Forever 21 piece.
Fans went wild with fury that the ultra-fashionable, couture loving Carrie would deign to wear fast fashion.
‘So Carrie went from stylish and sexy to frumpy?’ one person complained, while someone else wrote: ‘Forever21 really? On a 50-something. Patricia Field would never…’
