BARNETT Sheridan (Designer)

A cool bride is transported to the church on a Harley-Davidson. Her wedding outfit is by Sheridan Barnett, who graced the 1970s with lean, uncontrived fashion. Her cream jacket and skirt are spare of any detail other than Perspex buttons to fasten her jacket and patch pockets to carry her handkerchief. Barnett was almost architectural in his approach to clothes, demanding function and purity of line at a time when all around him were making additions _with embroidery, printing and appliqué fighting for space on dresses everywhere. Because function is more commonly found on menswear, Barnett often used it as a central theme. Although the bride's cloche hat is trimmed with net, a black pussy-cat bow is tied at her neck and her stockinged legs end in a pair of wedge sandals, that clean, masculine theme comes through in a jacket modelled on a classic, double-breasted blazer.
