Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood
The young need discipline and a full bookcase.
Vivienne Westwood
I really don't like women who try to be men. All these politicians, I think they're horrendous. We could have a brilliant future, but we have this terrible male vision of destroying everything. They'd better sort themselves out and become more womanly.
