The Story

A stunning and thought-provoking biography of one of the world's most iconic fashion designers.

From punk provocateur to celebrity couturier, Vivienne Westwood was one of the most influential artists of recent times. A true original who used clothes to express her ethos, often fusing anti-establishment values with high-end, corseted visuals.

As an emerging designer in the seventies, Westwood, together with her then-partner Malcolm McLaren, was a key architect of the anarchic aesthetic known as punk, worn most notably by McLaren's band the Sex Pistols. Safety pins, ripped clothes, visible seams and bondage trousers were made to shock, but also to instigate change; a theme that permeated Westwood's work.
