Patricia Field Brings Beautiful Fashion to Ugly Betty
Sex and the City's style mastermind enlivens Betty's third season.
America Ferrera in 'Ugyly Betty' -
ABC
The famed stylist and fashion mastermind behind Sex and the City, Patricia Field, has a new gig on the set of Ugly Betty. Since the show moved production from L.A. to New York this year, Field, who styled the pilot episode, has returned to the fashion-centric program for its third season. Set in the offices of fictional fashion magazine Mode, Ugly Betty's cast is typically dressed in understated colors and classic silouhettes, but America Ferrera's Betty Suarez is another story. Just like Carrie Bradshaw's wardrobe, Betty's closet is a mash-up of high-end designer pieces -- including Marc Jacobs, Viktor and Rolf, and Alexander McQueen -- and one of a kind vintage finds. But that's where the similarities end. Betty's kooky style is all about traffic-stopping colors, clashing patterns and questionable layering. Patricia Field demonstrates that it's not the clothes or labels that give you style, but how you wear them. Underneath the tacky, mismatched layers, Betty wears some great pieces, but they get lost in a jumble of color and pattern. Perhaps she has the quirky fashion sense of Carrie Bradshaw, taken a few steps too far. If you're looking to separate out Betty's fabulousness, visit SeenON!, a Web site that breaks down fashion on all your favorite shows. The site makes it easy to recreate the looks worn by your favorite characters, whether you're a Wilhelmina or you're suppressing your inner Betty.
