Sex & The City star Sarah Jessica Parker features on the cover of the latest issue of US Elle magazine. Inside she talks about her twins, growing old and becoming the president and chief creative director for designer fashion label, Halston.
On meeting the twins after birth:
“[Meeting them] is hard to describe. Everything is suspended. I can’t even tell you what other sounds were in the room. I loved them immediately, but everything–their size, the shape of their heads, the color of their hair, their noses, their eyes–was new to me. They looked surprisingly different from James Wilkie, which I wasn’t expecting.”
On taking her role at Halston very seriously:
“I said, ‘Please know this now: I will never do this for a title. I will never dip in and out of this. I’ll do it like everything else I’ve ever done. I’ll be involved down to the splitting of the atom.’”
On her design skills:
“I might not have the language; I can’t always tell you the exact blend of a fabric, but I figure it out.”
On aging naturally:
“I don’t know what I can do about the aging. Yes, I am aging. Oh my God, I’m aging all the time. It’s like those flowers that wilt in front of you in time-lapse films. But what can I possibly do? Look like a lunatic?”
