'That is not a real Hermès bag, just so you know,' Sarah Jessica said. 'Pat, like had a person. And she was like, "Do you want one? I could get you one." No, I don't really, I don't need one. But this isn't real.' And the reason for the bag? Well, that was to hide her pregnancy on camera. 'That bag had one job to do,' she added.

In the same video, SJP also said how she thinks there's no place for worst dressed lists.

'You get to borrow something you like, you think it speaks to you at the moment in a place at a time for an event, and you wear it, and maybe some people think you don't look amazing — and that's certainly their right,' she said, looking back on a Prada crop top and matching skirt outfit she wore in 2001.

'I think the difference is, we all walk out the door every single day,' she added. 'Most of us try to make a choice that makes us feel good, or like ourselves, or appropriate for where we're going, or who we're gonna be with. We don't walk up to each other and say things like, "Ugh, awful." So what's so funny to me about this is how much chatter it provokes. But it's just a thing, it's just an outfit that happened because a person liked it. So what's the point of the criticism? We're all just kind of making an attempt every day to offer ourselves up to another person.'
