The fight is no longer between the classes or between rich and poor but between the idiots and the eco-conscious.
Vivienne Westwood
My fashion advice is to have a flattering mirror and then forget about it.
Vivienne Westwood
I have too much product, and I'm trying to rein it in and sell more of my main collection. I wish you didn't have to design so often it would be good if you could keep on selling the same things for a few years and not have to do new things all the time.
Vivienne Westwood

I have always loved the Mao cap, though I hate violent revolution.
Vivienne Westwood
Well, I'm very much a literary person. And my fashion always tells a story somehow. I never look at fashion magazines. I find them incredibly boring. To me, reading a fashion magazine is the last thing I need to do. I've got books I need to read.

If you're too big to fit into fashion, then you just have to do your own fashion.
Vivienne Westwood
More people should read books. It's the most concentrated experience you can have.
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
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.
Vivienne Westwood
The migrants are not a temporary crisis. The crisis is mounting.
Vivienne Westwood
When we started to do punk, we put all of these things together to create the look of an urban guerrilla - a rebel.
Vivienne Westwood
Every time I have to look up a word in the dictionary, I'm delighted.
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
Personally I'm not a feminist, as I can't stand puritans.
Vivienne Westwood
Every time I hear that word, I cringe. Fun! I think it's disgusting it's just running around. It's not my idea of pleasure.
