History of the Fashion Designer Vivienne Westwood

The most eccentric and influential of Britains fashion designers who puts out on the runway the most amazing and spectacular clothes. Her Logo is a royal ORB with a cross on top, bejewelled and impressive as befits the Queen of British fashion.
In 1941, Vivienne Swire was born in Derbyshire, England. Her father was a shoemaker and her mother a cotton weaver. When she was 16, her family moved to London and Vivienne attended the Harrow School of Art. After spending just one term there, she left to become a primary school teacher. She met her first husband Derek Westwood in 1962 and married him. They had a son Ben. In 1965, she met Malcolm McLaren who became her partner in fashion as well as life. He was a very flamboyant man.
In 1971. together with McLaren, she started up a shop called "Let it Rock" on Londons trendy Kings Road. She spent all night stitching rock-inspired clothes, visiting punk clubs and grunge bars. In 1974 the couple opened another boutique called "Sex" selling pornographically printed T-shirts and garments with sexual slogans printed on them.
In 1977 they changed the name of their boutique to "Seditionaries" and sold garments with a bondage look made of leather.
In 1980 there was another change of name to "Worlds End" and Vivienne introduced her Pirate collection, including frilly shirts and romantic swashbuckling styles. It was very successful.
1982 She introduced the first collection in her own name which proved very popular. Her collections were called Buffalo, Savage, and Punkature.
1983 She gave a fashion show in Paris, the first British designer to do so since Mary Quant in the 60s. People remember it as one of the best shows ever, but chic Parisiennes were horrified by the riotous behaviour and punky London garments. The collection was called "Punkature".
Her relationship with McLaren ended and her shops closed but her talent could not be kept down. She opened a studio in Londons Camden area, a 19 km bicycle ride from her modest apartment in South London.
1984 Her collection was called Hypnos, the first sports collection with fluorescent fabrics on the catwalk.
1985 Vivienne Westwood based her collection on Clint Eastwood, the film star.
1985 She launched her "mini-crini" a very short crinoline design, which took off like a rocket.
1987 The Harris tweed collection, thoroughly British tweed, twinsets and pearls (for the men too)
1988 The Pagan collection, full frocks and Greek drapery.
1989 Voyage to Cythera, with fig-leaf tights.
1990 Her "Portraits" collection, used paintings of the old masters such as Boucher.
1990 Vivienne Westwood won her first British Designer of the Year award.
1991 Cut and Slash, a collection featuring wittily torn cotton and slashed denim clothes.
1991 Won her second Designer of the year Award.
1992 She presented a collection based on Hollywood glamour called "You are always on Camera"
Another collection the same year, parodied French couture.
1992 She was awarded an O.B.E. and went to receive it from the Queen in a see-through blouse, and a skirt which when swirled around displayed her lack of underwear. She shocked the world.
1993 She called her collection "Anglomania" and used tartan suits, ball gowns, fake fur corsets, etc.
1994 Ravishing romanticism with "on liberty"
1995 Erotic zones collection Assorted pads, hoops and stays pumped up the models contours and allowed them to alter their outlines at whim. Their erotically upholstered frames and playfully leering attitude is vintage Westwood.
1996 Her collection was inspired by Watteau, the painter of exquisite 18th century women.
The Cosmopolitan Fashion awards rank her 4th in the British ready-to-wear designers rank.
1998 She has gone back to her Pirate beginnings, her new collection is called "tied to the mast" and features seamen.
2000 Vivienne Westwood has become the "old lady of fashion" not yet completely respectable, but yet respected.
Viviennes Spring 2002 collection "Fairy Tales" showed pale woodland nymphs in natural muted tones, flowers and brambles with skirts bunched, ruched and drapes. Heavy cottons and suede skirts were worn with cherry leather aprons and sexy nymphs wore handcrafted crochet dresses in black and white, floating at the knee.
Her lines
Gold Label - her demi couture line of ready-to-wear and made to measure pieces
Red Label - her sassy tailoring, knits and shirts
Man, her menswear line.
Together they have a turnover of 20 million pounds per year. She supplies 550 stores in 30 countries which is all solely owned by Vivienne herself. Her managing director is carlo DAmario.
Her son Joe Corre operates her Worlds End Shop, and has turned it into a lucrative label. He assists her with all the chores she has to manage to keep her empire operating. He also owns the lingerie label Agent Provocateur.
The Westwood Style
Vivienne Westwood is fashions chief architect of revolt. She was once queen of punk and is no stranger to the forms of sabotage that can pave the way for the next upheaval in style or taste.
Her clothes are revolutionary and controversial. Her designs include intentionally twisted seams, intentionally badly cut clothes, designs intended to shock, deliberate contradictions of colour. She ignores conventional fashion directions and goes her own way. She is queen of the original: bustiers, mens kilts, cone-shaped bras as day wear; classical paintings on underwear; the mini crinoline, fake fur trains, woolly royal crowns and so on.
Surprisingly, other well-known designers have lavished praise on Vivienne. Rei Kawakubo, the famous Japanese designer says "I think Viviennes means of expression is profound. Her way of smashing tradition to create something totally new, is wonderful".
Spring/Summer 2003
Vivienne presented her Spring/Summer 2003 collection during Paris Fashion Week in October 2002 which was very well received.
Fall/Summer
Vivienne Westwood, the London designer, again showed her Fall collection during Paris Fashion Week in March 2003.
As always she presented a bright and cheerful collection of clothes, her satin skirts were very feminine. She also included a range of knit tops in geometric patterns, and her signature plaid dresses and skirts.
Spring/Summer 2004
During Paris Fashion Week in October 2003, Vivienne Westwwod showed her collection for next Spring.
She mixed historic and contemporary styles making toga drapes and the occasional jersey dress. A sly take on sexuality as a rerun of New Romantics mixed with punk in dangling straps and twisted hose. It was a usual Westwood eccentric show.

Retrospective
In honour of her 34 year career as well as her 63rd birthday, the Victoria and Albert Costume Institute in London is holding a retrospective of Viviennes great clothes from April to July 2004. She has moulded modern attitude to the female form all her life and this is the chance to view many of her pioneering styles. A book has also been published of the clothes shown at the exhibition, which is shown below.
Personal Life
Viviennes third husband is Andreas Kronthaler, born in 1966, and so 25 years younger than she is. However, it appears to be a very happy match and she credits him with having a wonderful influence on her life and creativity.
Fall/Winter 2004 ready-to-wear
Vivienne presented her Fall collection in Paris during Fashion Week in March 2004. She seems to be getting ready for her retrospective exhibition of a careers work, because she introduced lots of old friends at this show. Her warrior women wore sweaters with tubes of knitting spilling out at each breast, lots of straps binding dresses and dangling free shoes. Her infamous "rocking horse" shoes which dropped Naomi Campbell a few years ago, also appeared. Ragged furs made outwear of an Outer Mongolia look. Tartan of course was much in evidence.

Spring/Summer 2005
Vivienne Westwood presented her collection for the Spring season during Paris Fashion Week in October 2004.
Ultra-femininity was the theme mentioned on the invitation, and Francois Bouchers paintings have again inspired Vivienne as they did with her "Portraits" collection in 1990. Vivienne always catches the current spirit, in swooshing drapes, sweet colours and witty accessories like her platform shoes. There was even a shorts suit which has been seen so much in New York and Milan this season, and of course Viviennes hot pants were the hottest yet.


Autumn/Winter 2005

Vivienne Westwoods Autumn/Winter collection was shown during Paris Fashion Week in March 2005. She is still a fashion revolutionary after all these years Some of the strange garments in this seasons collection including a garment for the lower body which had a pant leg on one side and a skirt on the other. Many of her tops had strange logos, including one she wore herself with the word "propoganda" on it. Lots of her jewelled knits had clock faces, recalling the first London boutique she set up. Her slanted coat with a hood is a definite winner. Some pieces had a forties look to them, as in a jacket with exaggerated shoulder pads.
