Lesley McKenzie Managing EditorSince the 1998 debut of “Sex and the City,” Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw has shaped the fashion landscape with her boundary-pushing, experimental style mashup of haute couture, vintage pieces, thrift finds and up-and-coming designers. With the series follow-up “And Just Like That … ,” Bradshaw’s sartorial risk-taking more than two decades later has shown no signs of slowing down thanks to Molly Rogers and Danny Santiago, who took the costume design baton from “SATC” legend Patricia Field.
