Can you imagine sitting down to watch And Just Like That, before spotting one of your own designs in Carrie’s wardrobe – or should I say closet? That’s exactly what happened to Irish designer, Gabrielle Malone.
Gabrielle’s hand-knitted ‘Wave’ cardigan in camel can be seen during two scenes of episode 8 of the hit show.
Sharing the news on Instagram alongside a screenshot of the impressive wardrobe, Gabrielle wrote: “Watch out for a familiar piece on tonight’s AJLT! Our Wave Cardigan has made it stateside and into Carrie Bradshaw’s closet! Thank you to the MPK, SJP and the AJLT team for making this happen!”
Explaining how exactly her cardigan ended up in the show, the designer shared with the Irish Independent: “I used to work in TV and film in the States every summer. I had interned with Tess Casey from Cork who owns Aisling Flowers.
“She bought the cardigan as a Thank You gift for Carol Silverman, set decorator on And Just Like That, and that’s how Carol found me and followed me on Instagram.

Before adding: “She wore the cardigan on the set. The director, Michael Patrick King, and Sarah Jessica Parker saw it and loved it, and they added it last-minute to the background of the episode. It’s really amazing.
“Getting that news, two hours before the show screened, was really incredible. If you had told me last year when I was making it, I never would have thought it would end up there.”
Continuing, Gabrielle shared: “Even if it was just in the background for a few moments in two scenes, just the fact that it was beside such an iconic character meant so much to me.
“There was so many messages afterwards, it’s nice to see that people were as excited as I was.”
