Designer, punk, rebel, dame... Vivienne Westwood was all this and
more. One of the main architects of the 1970s punk era, the
inimitable Westwood refused to take fashion too seriously, finding
unique and arresting ways to subvert tradition and challenge the
status quo. But her impact on the industry was more than ripped
T-shirts. A master of tailoring and mistress of corsetry, she
deconstructed street fashion and parodied English looks with tight
waists, bustles and a zany take on tartan and Harris Tweed. Clients
include Dita Von Teese, FKA Twigs and Doja Cat, her signature
designs have featured in Japanese manga, Nana, and having
captivated the TikTok generation, her vintage pieces still go viral
today. Punk in both fashion and politics to the very end, Vivienne
Westwood will remain an icon of fashion and feminism for
generations to come.
