The sexiest people are thinkers.
Vivienne Westwood
There is no hierarchy of values any more. Real progress is due mainly to human genius, and that's rare, and usually stems from a real elite, from a hierarchy.
Vivienne Westwood
You've got to invest in the world, you've got to read, you've got to go to art galleries, you've got to find out the names of plants. You've got to start to love the world and know about the whole genius of the human race. We're amazing people.
Vivienne Westwood
Liverpool people are famous for liking clothes and fashion they are very social and lively people, and we know that they like clothes.
Vivienne Westwood
Journalists are usually quite jealous people, especially of intellectuals who are supposed to be in fashion.
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
Our economic system, run for profit and waste and based primarily on the extractive industries, is the cause of climate change. We have wasted the earth's treasure and we can no longer exploit it cheaply.
Vivienne Westwood
I do think if you aim for quality, it's not so much about consumerism. The idea is 'Buy less, choose well, make it last.'
Vivienne Westwood
More people should read books. It's the most concentrated experience you can have.
Vivienne Westwood
My son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.
Vivienne Westwood
I do not approve of museums trying just to get people to come in. Whistler was very, very clear on this.
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
You have a more interesting life if you wear impressive clothes.
Vivienne Westwood
We have got to change our ethics and our financial system and our whole way of understanding the world. It has to be a world in which people live rather than die a sustainable world. It could be great.
Vivienne Westwood
My aim is to make the poor look rich and the rich look poor.
Vivienne Westwood
I disagree with everything I used to say.
Vivienne Westwood
My clothes have always got a very strong dynamic rapport with the body - they are very body conscious, they help you to look glamorous, more hourglass, more woman.
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
There's nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere.
Vivienne Westwood
But, the thing is, since I always had my own little shop and direct access to the public, I've been able to build up a technique without marketing people ever telling me what the public wants.
