Vivienne Westwood may have one of the craziest stories in all of fashion. How is it possible that a former elementary school teacher became the Queen of Punk? Well that’s exactly what we’re going to be looking at in this video - starting back in her days running a boutique with Malcolm Mclaren, all the way to present day. You might even be surprised to learn that she’s left her mark on several pop culture fixtures like the game Final Fantasy, and that she played a major role in Pharrell Williams’ viral Grammy appearance back in 2014. This is the history of Vivienne Westwood - enjoy!

I love Vivienne purely because she’s a rebellious punkish designer in the high fashion space since it seems to be mostly made up of rather “proper” acting people. I can’t imagine many designers other than her in a mosh pit.

As a dressmaker/ designer myself, VW is truly brilliant at cut and concept. She’s far more than just a rock/ punk niche boutiquer, the work is truly original. Clothes are hard, they’re kinetic sculptures that have to fit a body. It’s a rare talent that can cut and she can!

@samaraisnt 2 года назад

Yeah the idea that her hub would insult her by saying she's "just a seamstress" shows how little he knows...that's literally why her cuts are great, cause she actually knows how to make the clothes!

@bluBlaq33 2 года назад

A lot of actual punks dislike Vivienne Westwood because she didn’t create an inclusive version of punk. However be that as it may, many of the silhouettes that exist in punk, and the very few fashion factions that exist in the subculture are attributed to her. Her contribution is undeniable. Despite modern day punks in my scene hating her because high fashion is part of the Elite and bourgeoisie culture. Which at it’s core is everything punk is against.

Fortunately for us all, her steps brought attention to both styles and social issues. This video tells an incredible story and does it amazingly well.

@kateapple1 2 года назад

Video was great-I’m a big fashion nerd too 🤓 maybe (and I know it’s a lot of work) you could add more pictures of pieces from her career and collections next time. I know how difficult it is to go through the editing process and putting less pictures means less time and you get more videos put out I totally get it. But as a viewer there’s only so much that you can listen to without something moving in front of you and I think the pictures of her work speak more to the art itself than anyone’s description could of course you did an excellent job and your description of everything we’re just be the icing on the cake on top of the pictures.

@m.susanlight9235 2 года назад

Wow, thank you so much for perfectly expressing my view! I agree that a greater amount of her work would be exponentially better for the viewer. Including many of her seminal works by decade and/or film and television could only be a dream come true for many of us.

While that featured her voice and had a certain intimacy, yours filled in some holes and was invigorating in ways i needed. She is one of my heroes. I remember the buffalo hat because i was kid when McClaren’s ‘Buffalo Girls’ vid came out. Yeah this installment was gold. I loved the Telfar, Virgil Abloh, HBA, Blood Osiris and Rick Owens ones as well. THANK YOU.🙏🏽✊🏽👍🏽
