Sarah Jessica Parker is returning to Broadway after two decades.
Instagram content“I’ve known Sarah Jessica for a very long time, from the beginning of my career really, and she found me through my clothes,” says Gurung of his relationship with Parker. “She’s always been so kind and generous – everything that people say about her is absolutely true.” When Parker asked Gurung if he’d be up for designing her dress for opening night, his answer was an immediate yes.
While the revival of the play remains firmly in its original 1960s setting, it takes place across three acts. Each revolves around a different couple staying in the same suite at the iconic Midtown hotel, allowing the costumes to showcase the full spectrum of style in a decade when fashion dramatically shifted. Rather than looking to anyone specific, Gurung and Parker channelled the spirit of a classic Broadway star from that period.
When we speak, Gurung has just finished adding the final touches to the gown before Parker gets ready to hop into her car and hit the red carpet – and finally, celebrate her return to Broadway in the grandest of style. “When she got dressed, I was just like, ‘oh my God, she looks like royalty!’” Gurung says. “It always makes me very emotional, because it reminds me how fortunate I am.
