More quotes by Vivienne Westwood
If you wear clothes that don't suit you, you're a fashion victim. You have to wear clothes that make you look better.
Vivienne Westwood
How impossible it is for us to imagine ourselves victims of disaster. We suffer for the poor people who were thrown into the sea from their cruise ship off the coast of Tuscany, some losing their lives. Imagine a world of accelerating natural disasters, one after the other so that nobody can help anyone else.
Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood
It is not possible for a man to be elegant without a touch of femininity.
Vivienne Westwood
Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.
Vivienne Westwood
Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women's beauty on a pedestal.
Vivienne Westwood
The fight is no longer between the classes or between rich and poor but between the idiots and the eco-conscious.
Vivienne Westwood
A status symbol is a book. A very easy book to read is The Catcher in the Rye. Walk around with that under your arm, kids. That is status.
Vivienne Westwood
I design things to help people to hopefully express their personality.
Vivienne Westwood
Feminists wish women to seem like men. They're not men.
