More quotes by Vivienne Westwood
I've got a terrible memory it's probably because I'm always concentrating on what I'm doing now.
Vivienne Westwood
I think that feminists have definitely underestimated the role that women have had historically. I think I would be insecure if I were to be a man there's so much pressure on you.
Vivienne Westwood
It's better to look important than sexy.
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
My clothes are very popular in Japan.
Vivienne Westwood
Buy less, choose well & do it yourself!
Vivienne Westwood
The muscular, athletic type is not representative of the human race, who are varied in their physique.
Vivienne Westwood
Fashion is here to help make people look very important. If they have good taste and choose what suits them, I give them options on how they can do that. It's always sexy, and it's always with the same result: making women look fantastic.
Vivienne Westwood
I never look at fashion magazines. I find them incredibly boring.
Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood
I like to literally put women on a pedestal
Vivienne Westwood
If you see everything from the point of view of women being victims in some way, you don't see the wood for the trees. It is better to be a person than a woman.
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
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
The capitalist system is about taking from the Earth and from the other great commodity, labour. What's happening with this system is that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, and the only way out of it is supposed to be growth. But growth is debt. It's going to make the situation worse.
Vivienne Westwood
In history people dressed much better than we do today.
Vivienne Westwood
The main message of Climate Revolution is that climate change is caused by the rotten financial system we've got, designed to create poverty and rip off any profits for a small amount of rich people. Meanwhile, it destroys the earth.
Vivienne Westwood
Wear a towel instead of a coat, it’s very chic. Or your husband’s boxer shorts with a belt, or something from your grandmother. It’s all about do-it-yourself at the moment.
Vivienne Westwood
I don't care how many beauty treatments you have, I don't care which bag you're carrying - you have to have a dress.
Vivienne Westwood
Journalists are usually quite jealous people, especially of intellectuals who are supposed to be in fashion.
