fashions worn by `Law & Order' actress Angie Harmon

For Angie Harmon, who plays assistant district attorney Abbie Carmichael on NBC's Law & Order, one of the joys of stardom is getting the chance to look fabulous at parties and premieres. "I'm playing dress-up," the Dallas-born former model says gleefully. "I just happen to be dressing up in Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Calvin Klein and Richard Tyler." When special events loom, Harmon, 27, often gets a hand from L.A. stylist Jessica Paster. "Angie has great taste," Paster says. "I just make it easier for her." Although Harmon returns many of her outfits to the designers, the 5'9" actress has amassed a personal wardrobe so huge that it spills over into the spare bedroom of her L.A. home. "Come to the house sometime--I'll show you how much she loves clothes," offers her boyfriend, textile executive Beau Nellor, 26. Not that he minds. "She's a head-spinner," he says.
  Diamonds aren't always this girl's best friend. "There's something so sexy about a woman with a chunky man's watch," says Harmon of her stainless steel Swiss Army timepiece. Even wearing a gown, "I'm not afraid to throw something casual in there. I don't want to be unapproachable."
  Harmon doesn't suffer for fashion. For April's VH1 Divas Live '99 show in New York City (above and left), she chose this $1,315 outfit--Vivienne Tam pants, Gucci top and shoes--for its comfort. "This was a concert," she says. "Do you want to be in a little tight skirt? No. How do you sit when Tina Turner's doing 'Proud Mary'? I was practically standing on my chair."
  One of the perks of celebrity is borrowing jewels. The $200,000 diamond cuff Harmon wore with her Randolph Duke gown to June's American Fashion Awards in Manhattan is courtesy of Fred Leighton.
PHOTOS (COLOR): Though she's convinced she "can never get enough" Kate Spade handbags, for now Harmon has just this one, which she carries constantly. That rules out any tax deduction. "If I wear something to only one event, it can be deducted," she notes. "If I wear it anywhere else, then it can't."
  Harmon loves having "an excuse to put on something like this,"
she says of the Dolce & Gabbana dress and Jimmy Choo boots that she wore to the VH1 Fashion Awards last fall.
  Gucci's fringed and beaded top made Harmon's heart race when she first saw it. But the $2,800 price tag almost stopped it. When the design house gave her a custom version to wear to its May party in L.A., "I stood there squealing, 'Thank you, thank you!'" says Harmon, who has already decided to wear the outfit again on New Year's Eve. She's celebrating in Australia with Nellor.
  Harmon doesn't worry about running into someone else wearing the same outfit. "I would never allow that to happen," says her stylist Jessica Paster, who gets assurances from designers that the clothes they lend Angie are one-of-a-kind. At the SAG Awards in L.A. last March in this Richard Tyler gown, "I felt like a princess," says Harmon. "You walk out in these fabulous outfits and people take your picture. That's not horrible."
 For a May awards show in L.A., Harmon mixed a black Versace Istante dress, casual sweater, jeweled Manolo Blahniks, her Kate Spade bag, Kenneth Cole sunglasses that "make me look like a movie star," and the silver rings that "I wear everywhere." Style is "more relaxed" in L.A. than in New York City, where Law & Order films, she says.
 Even stars like bargains. Though she paid "about $500" for the Parallel jacket that she wore to Law & Order's 200th-episode party in New York City last March, Harmon later got a full-length version for $100 at a closeout sale.
  Her Manolo Blahniks are "pieces of art," says Harmon. "You might as well set them on your coffee table." To keep track of her 75 pairs of shoes, she tapes Polaroids of the contents to each box.
  Harmon is philosophical about returning borrowed clothes like the flowered Marc Bouwer she wore to a Whitney Museum benefit in Manhattan in March. "If you wear something twice," she says, "everyone's on your case." She doesn't want the wrong kind of attention. When she forgot to remove the bandage on her arm after a doctor's visit, she worried what the press might make of it. "I can just see it now," she says jokingly. "Angie Harmon--heroin addict and not afraid to show it."yanzic0613.
