Harris Tweed‘I was so besotted by the colours in Harris tweed, I made a hat copied like the Coronation crown with three-dimensional jewels in colours of Harris. The show began with Sara Stockbridge and my son Joe in their underwear, dressing on stage as city gents – black velvet jackets and city striped trousers, lipstick all smudged as if kissing, and as half the models were drunk, people really did think that’s what we’d been up to backstage. My love for English tailoring and Savile row fabrics: chalk stripe, pin stripes, tattersall – barathea in hunting red – black velvet looks seductive with tartan. It was a very small collection; I was still producing with cottage industry. The final impression was of debutantes and their partners, including a beautiful older man with beard, arriving at the ball from their shooting break, wearing their crowns and Barbour raincoats over evening dress.’Vivienne Westwood

This was the first collection that Sara Stockbridge (pictured opposite), a quintessential ‘English rose’, modelled for Westwood, for whom she would continue to model for the next five years, coming to be seen as the embodiment of the Westwood woman (A. Fury, Vivienne Westwood Catwalk, p. 126).
‘Harris Tweed’ was also the birth-place of Westwood’s world-recognised royal orb symbol. Westwood used the orb logo of the Harris Tweed Authority and added a Saturn inspired ring: a contradictory combination of past and future that has become synonymous with the House (A. Fury, ibid.)
