Vivienne Westwood
More people should read books. It's the most concentrated experience you can have.
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
I just think people should invest in the world. Don't invest in fashion, but invest in the world.
Vivienne Westwood
I haven't told anyone this before, but when I was a teenager... I actually thought I was turning into a boy, and I didn't really care. It didn't bother me at all.
Vivienne Westwood
I think it is terribly important to have opinions, and to think. We live in a world of action without thought.
Vivienne Westwood
We wanted to step off our island and add the color of the third world. We got gold cigarette paper and stuck it around our teeth. We really did look like pirates and dressed to look the part.
Vivienne Westwood
I wish you didn't have to design so often. Try to do quality and cut down on quantity. I think fashion is very, very important.
