Description

"Vivienne Westwood is widely viewed not only as one of Britain's most important fashion designers but as one of the most influential designers in the world. Her career has been based in London, and her work reflects the city's creative edge and the energy generated by its free-thinking designers, artists and musicians. Westwood brought British street-style to the catwalk, and her avant-garde designs have had a lasting influence on her peers." "The book includes an introductory essay on Vivienne Westwood, an interview with Romilly McAlpine, one of Westwood's most significant patrons, interviews with other Londoners who wear Westwood creations, an essay on Westwood designs, and two interviews with those closely involved in the production of Westwood clothes."--Jacket.
