Julie Harris Obituary
Jo Botting, a British Film Institute curator and friend, said Harris died Saturday at a London hospital after suffering from a chest infection.
Harris played a major role in capturing the look of 1960s "Swinging London" on film. She dressed The Beatles for both "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help!" - saying later, "I must be one of the few people who can claim they have seen John, Paul, George and Ringo naked."
She won an Oscar for "Darling," a style-setting film about London models and media types starring Dirk Bogarde and Julie Christie, and a British film award, the BAFTA, for the 1966 Michael Caine comedy "The Wrong Box."
Harris worked on the James Bond spoof "Casino Royale" in 1967, and created costumes for Roger Moore's first outing as 007, "Live and Let Die," in 1973. She designed for a vampiric Frank Langella in a 1979 version of "Dracula," and for "The Great Muppet Caper" (1981).
Harris is survived by her goddaughter, Serena Dilnot.

During my/our years at Phillimore Gardens we had a wonderful neighbourly relationship. Thank you Julie, I treasure the lovely moments we shared. The lemons you painted for me are still giving me great pleasure.

Your talent lives on--loved the ornate liveried costumed servants in "Darling" and Julie Christie's distinctly "mod" look you provided for that fine film. RIP, Ms. Harris.

Julie Harris and to the Harris Family, we have lost a loving daughter of God today. We may ask, if this is all there is to life, if we were purposed to live on earth for a short time and lose our loved ones in death? God wants us to live in peace and happiness on a paradise earth forever, and he has promised that not only will all our loved ones whom we have lost in death come back to life, but we will be able to "find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace" Psalms 37:11. What a marvelous hope for the future!
