Vivienne Westwood

Product Information

She is an opinionated anti-authoritarian, a one-time freedom fighter, and an environmentalist who puts her (substantial amounts of) money where her mouth is. She is the definition of fierce, and I think I want to be her when I grow up. Diese Biografie hat meinen Respekt für Vivienne Westwood wachsen lassen, denn eins steht nach diesem Buch fest: Wer hart arbeitet und niemals aufgibt, der kann es schaffen. I think Vivienne Westwood is an exceptional & interesting person. This authorised biography isn’t that interesting though. Stunning production qualities alone make this book very collectable. And then there are the personal colour photographs, fashion, celebrities, musings and reflections; the passion that is Vivienne Westwood.

A great read, very well researched, and informative book. I learnt a lot about Westwood and her method of working, and about the history of modern fashion. At times there feels like a little too much name-dropping - but this is the circle she moves in.... Forgotten the title or the author of a book? Our BookSleuth is specially designed for you.
