Sarah Jessica Parker, playing Carrie Bradshaw in the new “Sex and the City” movie, donned a pearl necklace from Mikimoto as her new signature piece. New York—If Carrie Bradshaw had one signature piece during her six season run as Sex and the City’s leading fashionista, it would have to be her nameplate necklace. In the movie version, though, she traded in the gold chain for something perhaps a little more grown-up but nonetheless in fashion: a long strand of pearls.

The opera-length necklace is from pearl legend Mikimoto and features 8.5-millimeter akoya cultured pearls in a 32-inch length, finished off with the brand’s signature clasp in 18-karat gold.

Though Carrie wore the necklace throughout the film, it got prime placement in a scene where she climbed into bed with “Mr. Big,” proving that for some girls, jewelry can truly be worn from day to night.

The strand retails for $11,900 and is available at Mikimoto stores and authorized retailers nationwide.
