Sarah Harmarnee’s extraordinary pieces amped up the intensity of Alexander McQueen’s collections.
She studied sculpture at the Victorian College of the Arts, graduating in 1992. Fascinated by the way her smaller pieces moved on the body, particularly when paired with unequivocal clothing, five years later Harmarnee moved to Paris, parlayed her way into a job as a catwalk photographer’s assistant and so gained entry to the Paris pret-a-porter tents.
It was while on assignment that she approached influential stylist Carine Roitfeld who was working with Tom Ford on the Gucci revival as well as directing genre-bending editorial spreads for influential fashion titles. Opening her coat to reveal a knife-like silver choker, Harmarnee shrugged: “This is what I do.”Roitfeld, duly impressed, suggested Harmarnee deliver a selection of her work to a studio shoot taking place with Mario Testino the very next day.
