More quotes by Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood
I wish you didn't have to design so often. Try to do quality and cut down on quantity. I think fashion is very, very important.
Vivienne Westwood
It's better to look important than sexy.
Vivienne Westwood
I think feminists are unaware of the tremendous extent of the role of women in history.
Vivienne Westwood
The only reason I'm in fashion is to destroy the word conformity.
Vivienne Westwood
It is not possible for a man to be elegant without a touch of femininity.
Vivienne Westwood
Women fight for democracy and engage in the world. But they shouldn't try and be copying men and be masculine they should anchor on the home and build on those fundamentals.
Vivienne Westwood
The best fashion accessory is a book.
