TRACY COX (Official Stylist)

Tracy Cox and Sarah's relationship began with Sex And The City. He was the man behind the dress in the iconic series finale exit scene of Sex in the City. In the episode, SJP lost a row of diamonds amongst layers of luxe tulle that could very well pass for the most exquisite ballerina dress of all time.

Tracy also created the link FASTERTHANPARIS, the gifted brainchild between Tracy Cox and Troy Arnold, and was featured in Vogue’s September issue. Back in 2009, the duo met through mutual friend Nicholas Kirkwood who suggested the two link up on a project. At the time, Tracy (whose original dream was to be a ballet dancer) was a stylist.
