Patricia Field, the iconic costume designer from “Sex and the City,” talks to beastobsessed about her new documentary, “Happy Clothes,” and her friendship with Kim Cattrall.
“I like happy clothes because I like happy,” she says in her new documentarywhich premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this week. “[Clothes] can be different colors, they just have to be happy together.
When The Daily Beast’s Obsessed asked Field what compelled her to commemorate her life in print and on film, she said the timing of both projects was simply a coincidence.“I actually don't think it really started within my consciousness,” she said over Zoom. “Other than [that] I'm prone to new adventures.”
Field is constantly alluding to her gut instinct and anarchic spirit throughout the film. Style, as opposed to fashion, can forgo any logic or rationale. But there’s something especially alchemical about watching her pull what others might write off as a gaudy pair of pants or blazer from a rack and immediately knowing that it works. Although what she does, of course, requires knowledge and skill on top of her own innate taste.
