Sarah Jessica Parker is leaving Halston Heritage, the brand she joined as president and chief creative officer in January 2010.
The label hasn’t issued any formal statement about Parker’s departure, but a profile in the current issue US Vogue refers to the star’s leadership of Halston Heritage as ‘a relationship that recently came to an end.’
One explanation of her quiet exit could lie in friction over executive changes. SJP was a major supporter of former Halston CEO Bonnie Takhar, becoming ‘visibly upset’ (i.e., crying at work) when she learned of Takhar’s firing in November last year.
Parker has been the brand’s most avid and visible devotee, wearing Halston Heritage pieces to innumerable press appearances and all throughout Sex and the City 2.
