SATC2 and the birkini

Michael Patrick King, the Writer and Producer of Sex and the City explains why the sequel was filmed in the Middle East  “.. the idea of Samantha Jones, sexually liberated beyond anyone’s expectation going to the Middle East started to make me amused. (however) the idea of sex and these liberated women being filmed there was a little too progressive for their…where they are right now. So we had to discover Abu Dhabi, which is where the movie takes place, in Marrakesh, in Africa, Rabat and Asweria. We got to film on like dunes where they filmed Laurence of Arabia.”

The contrast between SATC’s character, Samantha Jones and the Middle Eastern women was hilarious and the scenes of the birkinis and covered up swimsuits were familiar.   Check out these swimsuits straight off the Dubai Fashion Week runways (shot in ’08 during my Dubai Fashion Week trip).   And tell me what you think!

Sexy, no?
