Vivienne Westwood
Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women's beauty on a pedestal.
Vivienne Westwood
Sometimes you need to transport your idea to an empty landscape and then populate it with fantastic looking people.
Vivienne Westwood
I was born during the war and grew up in a time of rationing. We didn't have anything. It's influenced the way I look at the world.

I didn't want to be a fashion designer, and for a good half of my career I didn't like it. I always wanted to do other things.
Vivienne Westwood
I talk to fashion designers and say I want some money to save the rainforest, and they say, 'Oh, I agree with you completely Vivienne. Yes, climate change, it's definitely happening,' but they don't feel that they can do anything about it they don't even think 'Well let's stop it!'

Vivienne Westwood
And it's absolutely great, when everything comes together with the hair, the dresses and the makeup and the models and the music and the presentation. I can't get over these girls. They look wonderful. But by the time we finish with them, they look like they came from another planet. And I just think it's great.
Vivienne Westwood
I try to concentrate on quality clothing and accessories that are worth having, and to get my people to take fewer trips by air and stay longer each time they travel. It’s more human, especially if they take time to visit an art gallery while there.
Vivienne Westwood
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.
Vivienne Westwood
If you dress up, it helps your personality to emerge - if you choose well.
Vivienne Westwood
I think it's important to vote.
Vivienne Westwood
I was still interested in the youth rebellion but never-the-less I stopped being a victim. Stopped trying to attack the establishment realizing that it takes too much of your energy.
Vivienne Westwood
I'm different from any other designer, businesswise, in that I've built this company up and I own it. I never had business hype behind me to promote my image... My image is real... I have never had marketing people telling me what to do.
Vivienne Westwood
Print some money and give it to us for the rain forests.
