Housing Works Annual Fashion for Action Benefit Slated for Nov. 10 to 13

Carrie Bradshaw’s pink tulle skirt, which she wears in the opening sequence, is one of the most defining fashion moments in “Sex and the City.” Just in time for the reboot, titled “And Just Like That…,” fans will have the chance to buy the celebrated look donated by stylist Patricia Field from Nov. 10 to 13 for Housing Works’ 18th annual Fashion for Action fundraiser. The outfit is one of three looks donated by Field, who is also gifting custom-made studded shorts for the cause.

The sale raises money for Housing Works’ lifesaving services and advocacy for those impacted by HIV/AIDS and homelessness.

The four-day sale takes place on the Housing Works website and the in-store event from Nov. 10 to 13 at the flagship location at 143 West 17th Street in Chelsea. All sale proceeds benefit Housing Works and the event is open to the public from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
