I've always felt heroic about my life... As a child, I remember little girls in the playground moaning about how boys could do more than they could. I didn't think that was the case at all. My parents didn't treat me as a girl.

Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women's beauty on a pedestal.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I think that feminists have definitely underestimated the role that women have had historically. I think I would be insecure if I were to be a man there's so much pressure on you.

I have a company, and I've got to think about that. I'm trying to do my best there, and that's a much harder task. We recycle as much as possible, and we conserve. But I've always been one to save everything - I even walk up stairs on the very inside or the very outside to not wear out the tread.

I'm always attracted to people who interest me. They've got to be people who are really true to themselves somehow, and who are always trying to do something that makes their life more interesting, or better, or something for somebody else. They're interested in people.

I do have reasons for what I do. I am a very political person, and I really think if you put these clothes on, you will look like a force to be reckoned with.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I think some people would love to be able to make the clothes I make - and of course, I do influence them, but they keep simplifying, and minimalism doesn't quite work
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I've got a terrible memory it's probably because I'm always concentrating on what I'm doing now.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
There's nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I have considered voting Conservative because I am so against the Labour party.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I design things to help people to hopefully express their personality.

Fashion has become so whatever. I don't think there are any stones left to unturn.
Vivienne Westwood

When I first saw a picture of the crucifixion, I lost respect for my parents. I suddenly realised that this is what the adult world is like - full of cruelty and hypocrisy.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
A relationship should be based on friendship. I remember somebody telling me that when I was younger and I just thought, you know, stupid people, with that rubbish. But now I see that that is so important.

If you're too big to fit into fashion, then you just have to do your own fashion.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
I don't have space to enter into the examples or the history of this, so I'm left with having to make the bold statement that culture is extinct.

Even though it was the 70s, we found old stocks of clothes that had never been worn from the 50s and took them apart. I started to teach myself how to make clothes from that kind of formula.
