Fashion career[edit]
In 2009, Harlette was invited to Saudi Arabia to run a 10-day master class on the Art of Selling Lingerie for 26 Saudi women,[1] established to support the Reem Asaad Facebook campaign to allow women to work in Saudi lingerie stores. On 6 June 2011, King Abdullah decreed that women should work in lingerie stores instead of men.[2] The project received media attention around the world, including Swedish newspaper Expressen,[3] Radio New Zealand, New Straits Times,[4] The Star (Malaysia),[5] and Gold Coast Bulletin,[4] and was also described in the 2012 book Saudi Arabia on the Edge: The Uncertain Future of an American Ally, by Thomas Lippman.[6]
On 14 July 2009, Harlette obtained a patent for the world's first diamond and platinum garters.[7] Her lingerie collection debuted on the catwalk in Paris at the Salon International de la Lingerie, and the collection was invited to showcase at an Oscars style lounge in 2010.[8] The patented diamond suspenders and collection worn at this event by Shandi Finnessey were featured in Luxist.[9]
In August 2010, The Economic Times listed her company as the 5th most unique services company globally.[10]
Harlette's brand received two nominations for the 2011 and 2012 UK Lingerie Awards, and was nominated as a finalist for the New South Wales Premier Export Awards 2011 in Australia.[11]
In 2012 Harlette created a lingerie set incorporating South Sea Pearls.[12]
In the summer of 2013 Harlette debuted her first swim collection in Paris Mode City, and her one-piece design was picked for the Best of Show parade.[13]
In 2015 she had her first catwalk at the Caribbean International Swim Week on the island of Curaçao, and subsequently presented a preview of the pilot for her TV show IT Girl Lingerie, filmed in Curaçao, at MIPCOM in Cannes.[14][15] In 2016 she had a second catwalk in Curaçao.[16][17]
Harlette's collections have also been featured in the Wall St Journal, Hindustan Times, La Stampa,[18] CNN, NDTV,[19] Maxim UK,[20][21][22][23][24] and the Sydney Daily Telegraph.[25] Her costumes have been used in TV shows including Secret Diary of a Call Girl (2011).[26][27][28] and Britain's Next Big Thing.
