More quotes by Vivienne Westwood
I may be a rebel, but I am not an outsider.
Vivienne Westwood
The main message of Climate Revolution is that climate change is caused by the rotten financial system we've got, designed to create poverty and rip off any profits for a small amount of rich people. Meanwhile, it destroys the earth.
Vivienne Westwood
My son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.
Vivienne Westwood
Don't just eat McDonald's, get something a bit better. Eat a salad. That's what fashion is. It's something that is a bit better.
Vivienne Westwood
I didn't consider myself a fashion designer at all at the time of punk. I was just using fashion as a way to express my resistance and to be rebellious. I came from the country, and by the time I got to London, I considered myself to be very stupid. It was my ambition to understand the world I live in.
Vivienne Westwood
However, because Britain is young and exciting, I did show my second line here once or twice.
Vivienne Westwood
Home, more than anything, means warmth and bed.
Vivienne Westwood
If you wear clothes that don't suit you, you're a fashion victim. You have to wear clothes that make you look better.
Vivienne Westwood
My fashion advice is to have a flattering mirror and then forget about it.
Vivienne Westwood
There's nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere.
Vivienne Westwood
I always tried to do things by example, even though I was not a very good mother regarding routines and family life.
Vivienne Westwood
I very rarely watch my own fashion shows, but the makeup for my Fall 2011 show was just brilliant.
Vivienne Westwood
I have certain signatures, certain cutting principles. It could be a raw-edged seam it could be leaving the lining of sheepskin exposed so it's not perfectly finished. I invent new ways to do it, but the end goal is always the same.
Vivienne Westwood
We are the most amazing creatures that this world has ever produced, but we seem to also have this herd mentality we seem to be the most stupid, also.
Vivienne Westwood
How impossible it is for us to imagine ourselves victims of disaster. We suffer for the poor people who were thrown into the sea from their cruise ship off the coast of Tuscany, some losing their lives. Imagine a world of accelerating natural disasters, one after the other so that nobody can help anyone else.
Vivienne Westwood
If you're too big to fit into fashion, then you just have to do your own fashion.
Vivienne Westwood
It's a philosophy of life. A practice. If you do this, something will change, what will change is that you will change, your life will change, and if you can change you, you can perhaps change the world.
Vivienne Westwood
The best night of my life was watching the Japanese Noh theater. I've only seen it once, but even saying it now, I think, 'How can I ever have this experience again?' It was so mesmerizing, so complicated and so primordial I could not believe it.
Vivienne Westwood
I am always trying to find fabrics that are more friendly to the environment - working with Virgin Atlantic, they managed to research into this and find more eco fabrics.
Vivienne Westwood
I really don't like women who try to be men. All these politicians, I think they're horrendous. We could have a brilliant future, but we have this terrible male vision of destroying everything. They'd better sort themselves out and become more womanly.
