Mark Gong, a dedicated Sex and the City fan, drew deep inspiration from the iconic New Year’s Eve scene in the 2008 film while crafting his Fall/Winter 2024 Collection. Struggling through a recent heartbreak, Gong found comfort in the scene where Carrie, dressed in a sequined hat and fur coat, takes the subway to comfort Miranda, reminding her that she’s not alone. This poignant moment highlighted the strength and solace found in true friendship, which Gong decided to celebrate in his collection.

“Carrie waking up & taking the subway on NYE so that Miranda doesn’t have to be alone eating Chinese food, arriving in a sequined hat and fur coat (sorry not sorry-ish) w/a “Auld Lang Syne” playing and grabbing Miranda to tell her “you’re not alone” gets me every damn time.”, Mark noted.

The collection channels Carrie’s sleep-chic look, merging opulence with intimacy and strength with vulnerability. It showcases a blend of luxurious yet cozy designs, reflecting a narrative of contrast and authenticity. Gong combines the core elements of his collection—leather jackets, belted accessories, and shoulder-padded suits—with the introduction of French lace, sheer tulle, and satin pajamas, representing a blend of strength and softness. The season’s craftsmanship is highlighted by intricate beaded embroidery, inventive details such as straps and rivets, and the brand’s signature M symbol, all created using advanced techniques.
