More quotes by 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
Buy less, choose well, make it last. Quality rather than quantity: That is true sustainability. If people only bought beautiful things rather than rubbish, we wouldn't have climate change!
Vivienne Westwood
I'll tell you what I was like as a child. I was a good person. I was high-spirited but I was a big reader.
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
My son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.
Vivienne Westwood
If you're too big to fit into fashion, then you just have to do your own fashion.
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.
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
Within one generation, Los Angeles will be uninhabitable if people don’t do something about it. The world is going to get smaller and be uninhabitable and impossible to live in.
Vivienne Westwood
My clothes have a story. They have an identity. They have a character and a purpose. That's why they become classics. Because they keep on telling a story. They are still telling it.
Vivienne Westwood
At one time, I was very angry. I even treated fashion like a kind of crusade: you were either with us or against us, that kind of feeling. Now I know we need ideas, not kicking down a door.
Vivienne Westwood
Everybody looks like clones and the only people you notice are my age. I don't notice anybody unless they look great, and every now and again they do, and they are usually 70.
Vivienne Westwood
I like the Chinese proverb: If a horse is yours, it will always come back!
Vivienne Westwood
Fashion has become so whatever. I don't think there are any stones left to unturn.
Vivienne Westwood
Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women's beauty on a pedestal.
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
I may be a rebel, but I am not an outsider.
Vivienne Westwood
More people should read books. It's the most concentrated experience you can have.
Vivienne Westwood
Intelligence is composed mostly of imagination, insight, things that have nothing to do with reason.
Vivienne Westwood
I have been asked what would I ban immediately if I could. Advertising.
