It is not possible for a man to be elegant without a touch of femininity.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
My aim is to make the poor look rich and the rich look poor.
Vivienne Westwood

I don't feel comfortable defending my clothes. But if you've got the money to afford them, then buy something from me. Just don't buy too much.
Vivienne Westwood
