Vanessa Bryant Shared An Intimate Photo Of That Beautiful ‘Sex and the City’ Dress Kobe Bought Her And Grab A Tissue
In the months since her husband’s death, Vanessa Bryant has been generous about sharing stories and anecdotes about the beloved NBA player with her fans. From stories about birthdays to ones about his time with his kids, Vanessa has done well to give fans some light in a time when many are still grieving over the NBA great’s tragic end.
Recently, in a post about her husband, Bryant shared that he had gone above and beyond to get her one of television’s most iconic dresses.
Paying tribute to her late husband Bryant shared a picture of The Dress he once gave her which character Carrie Bradshaw wore during the series finale of ‘Sex and the City.’
In a post, Bryant featured side-by-side photos of the dress alongside an image of Sarah Jessica Parker wearing it in the show’s final episode. “I love you my baby @kobebryant,” she wrote in the post’s caption. “I found this beautiful dress Kob gifted me a long time ago. Not going to lie, I was taken back with emotion. He was SO romantic. Still showing me he ❤️’s me from Heaven.”
“When Mr. Big gets Carrie back. Paris. Missing my boo-boo and my sweet girl,” she added. “So nice to have found this dress today. You set the bar so high baby. No love like REAL LOVE.”
Bryant finished out the post writing “Love you forever boo-boo.”
Carrie’s iconic dress touched the hearts of many people watching the series finale at the time. Sarah Jessica Parker has called it her favorite outfit from that episode and in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she said “I think I loved the tutu dress that I wore at the end of the Paris episode because it was an outfit that was about an image that Carrie had, which was, like so often happens to Carrie, what she wanted to project onto the scenario of wearing that dress, a pie in her face. That outfit got to tell so many stories, and it was such a romantic outfit and it was so delicate and it had so much grace to it, and it ran around Paris, and that was not how she had imagined that outfit.”
Recently, Vanessa paid a sweet tribute to Bryant on her Instagram page on Father’s Day.
“Happy Father’s Day to the BEST daddy in the world. We miss you so much. We love you forever and always. Love, Nani, Gigi, BB, Koko and VB ❤️😘@KobeBryant #BestoftheBest #GirlDad,” Bryant wrote in a post on Father’s Day just days after she spoke out in support of the newly written Kobe Bryant and Gianna Bryant Helicopter Safety Act which sets out to ensure safer helicopter journeys. The act is a legislation that would require every helicopter to have a flight data recorder, a cockpit voice recorder and for riders on board to be equipped with a Terrain Awareness and Warning System.
“I strongly urge that the United States Congress pass a federal law that would improve the safety of helicopters operating in this country. I believe there is a chance that Kobe and Gianna would still be alive today if their helicopter had been equipped with the safety equipment required by this pending federal legislation,” Vanessa wrote in a statement.”I believe that these safety measures will save many lives.”
