Sarah Jessica Parker At 'I Dont Know How She Does It' Premiere: Yay Or Nay? (PHOTOS)

There must be something about Moscow that inspires movie stars and models to break out their inner Little Red Riding Hood.

Sarah Jessica Parker arrived to the Russian premiere of "I Don’t Know How She Does It" on Sunday wearing a dramatic red get-up by Giambattista Valli consisting of a strapless chiffon dress and a long cape layered on top. The actress finished off the look with large hoop earrings.

Although not quite as splashy, the ensemble reminds us of Natalia Vodianova's similar red outfit from the model's Russian-themed White Fairy Tale Love Ball held in July.

SJP's look was a more literal take on Little Red Riding Hood, making us wonder if the title of her new movie refers to a working mom's challenging to "do it all" or perhaps, instead, to Parker's unfailing willingness to take some strange fashion risks.

After all, SJP was the wearer of the famous "plant hat" back in 2008. Girl is one adventurous dresser.

Check out photos of Sarah Jessica's nursery rhyme-inspired style moment below.

SJP as Little Red Riding Hood:

Yay! Gorgeous as usual.

Nay! That's just bizarre.

We're none of us getting any younger, but she looks damn good. So hard to believe she was the bit of crumpet in LA Story all those years ago.

The dress its self is pretty but the cape is a bit much. Who the heck goes outside with a cape on???? Nobody I know!!

Horse-face riding hood she is uglier than a bowling shoe.

I like the dress, but the cape is too much, and I wish she would do something with her hair. The long, loose hair she always wears is boring.

She's one of those women who can look really attractive....then in the next picture look extremely unattractive. Kinda like that one Seinfeld episode.

From the photo I would have guessed she was channeling Secretariat...

Don't understand why you'd wear an uber expensive dress and have six inches of it dragging the ground. She's like 5'3" and very tiny and seems a little overwhelmed with volume here.

God, she's so old! Seriously, ugly.

The fit on the bodice doesn't look right...the color isn't bad. I think that I would like it better without the cape and with her hair in an up-do.

When I read the headline, I thought, "Patronizing." When I peaked at the pictures, I thought, "Little Red Riding Hood, indeed."

Not amusing.

It's OK to critique fashion, but it's not OK to make fun of physical characteristics.

Yep. Same thing I tell my children. I'm all for freedom of speech but some thoughts are better left unsaid.

Nice dress, but she really shouldn't be hanging out over the top of it. Keep the cape on.

Ok, Think Wicked Witch of the West in the Wizard of Oz...rewind to her early 40's, and you have Jessica Parker. Who on earth thinks this woman is even cute, much less worthy of all the hype. GROSS!

I wouldn't try wearing this get - up, but somehow SJP makes it work. Though I'm not a fan of the hair...

The hair looks greasy and unkempt. I actually like the dress and cape. Looks like one of the costumes from SATC.
