Portrait of Vivienne Westwood by Christian Shambenait
It took me a few days, but with the death of icon-goddess-genius Vivienne Westwood, I had to make a post here about her work and how massively influential she was during her lifetime, and why her influence will remain for years to come.
"I take something from the past that has a sort of vitality that has never been exploited – like the crinoline – and get very intense. In the end you do something original because you overlay your own ideas." Vivienne Westwood
Born in 1941 in Tintwistle, Cheshire, Vivienne Westwood (nèe Swire) did not have a "traditional" path into fashion and design, even though she took a course of jewellery at the Harrow Art School (she thought it was not for her, being a working-class girl), she became a primary school teacher and got married with Derek Westwood, had a kid... But she was a maker of things and a creative mind, and made her own wedding dress and jewellery that she sold at a stall.
Tumblr media
Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood at the Let It Rock store (London, January 1972).
But all of that was about to change when she met Malcolm McLaren. She got divorced, moved with him and had another son. McLaren became the manager of the Sex Pistols and with Westwood, they became a creative duo who dressed the band and became VERY influential during th punk era. We must add the after that they opened a store called SEX, which was the meeting place for the punk scene in London in the 1970s. So, yeah. punk wouldn't look like it does without Vivienne Westwood.
Tumblr media
"Vivienne and Malcolm use clothes to shock, irritate and provoke a reaction but also to inspire change. Mohair jumpers, knitted on big needles, so loosely that you can see all the way through them, T-shirts slashed and written on by hand, seams and labels on the outside, showing the construction of the piece; these attitudes are reflected in the music we make. It's OK to not be perfect, to show the workings of your life and your mind in your songs and your clothes." Viv Albertine
This era of Westwood's design has a lot of collaboration, especially with McLaren, and they produced under the Worlds End label until 1985. These collections have each a theme and a name, and here is when we star seeing Vivienne Westwood's eye and curiosity for historical fashion, as well as nods and details especially from the 18th and 19th centuries. Of course, it was the 80s and all was way more colourful than what we thing of more contemporary Vivienne Westwood, but you can see that EVERYTHING was already there in the period which she dubbed as "New Romantic" with collections like Witches, Punkature, and Pirate.

The 1988-1991 era is called "The Pagan Years", and we can see the change of the main looks from punks to girls in clothes that parodied the upper class. And it is then that I think the ultimate Vivienne Westwood is seen: corsets, crinolines, tartan, colourful stripes... Here is when we begin to see the historical references taken to a extreme, mixed with the modern word and sense of humour, while always being perfectly made and patterned and fun for all genders.
Here some of my favourite ones:

Corset from the “Portrait” Collection & Jeans from the “Cut & Slash” Collection
Vivienne Westwood
Fall/Winter 1991 & Spring/Summer 1991
At the time of this acquisition, Vivienne Westwood is regarded as the doyenne of British fashion. Controversial, acclaimed, eccentric, classic, punk, confronting and essentially British all describe Westwood's work. Opening a shop at 430 King's Road Chelsea, London with then partner Malcolm McClaren in 1971, Westwood sold her own designs through this shop, later called the World's End. Her early work of the 1970s harked back to fifties classic fashion at a time when hippy ideas were dominating fashion. Her work became increasingly associated with and inspired by the punk movement, epitomised by her relationship, through McClaren, with the punk rockers, the Sex Pistols, who first performed in 1976. She became their costume designer. Gene Krell describes Westwood as 'punk's prototype and greatest showpiece.' After punk, her interests became more historical, adapting and reinterpreting materials and designs into her own style. The corset was designed for her Portrait collection AW 1991. Westwood's revival of the corset ws one of her most important fashion ideas of the 1990s. Her corsets were modelled on the 18th century style, flattening and raising the bosom. The corset is photographically printed with a detail from Boucher's 'Daphnis and Chloe (Shepherd watching a sleeping shepherdess, 1743-5)' in the Wallace Collection, London.
The jeans with detachable satin codpiece come from Westwood's Cut and Slash collection, Spring Summer 1990-1991. With this collection, Westwood explored clothing that was androgynous. Inspired by historical portraits of men in slashed costume wearing codpieces, Westwood employed the 17th century technique of slashing she had studied at the V and A. Westwood slashed demin, cotton, satin and silk for the collection and achieved the effect in various ways: the large slashes were hand-cut while the smaller, regular cuts were made using a broderie anglais programme in which embroidered sections were cut, but the embroidery itself was omitted. The jeans with detachable codpiece were worn by the donor with a Westwood corset. Her style is individualistic and can push the boundaries of acceptability. While her range is extremely wide, her clothes bear her signature emphasis on intricate craftsmanship. Her work draws from a wide range of influences, particularly historical periods and collections, like the Wallace Collection. In 2004, the Victoria and Albert Museum held a major retrospective of her work. Each collection has a theme and title. She produces a range of collections twice a year, currently: gold label, red label, man and anglomania. Her range of accessories is extensive: bags, women's and men's shoes, jewellery and two lines of perfumes (Boudoir and Libertine). Her works promote a sumptuous and glamorous yet rebellious and challenging take on British identity, gender and politics. She said 'I am English, and I parody the English, with the hope that my clothing will have a international significance.'

We're starting off strong with Marina dressed in a Dior chunky ivory wool knit cardigan with baby-blue silk ribbons and white fur trimming (£1,650.00) which she teamed up with Dolce & Gabbana burgundy velvet wrap bustier dress with draping and jewel brooches (£1,300.00).

Tumblr media
...which she then swapped for a Sonia Rykiel beige ostrich feather pom-pom headband (£350.00).
Tumblr media
One element I've noticed about this shoot: there's just never enough when it comes to jewelry! Layering chunky necklaces is such an early 2010s thing and this shoot definitely showed how to do it back then.
Marina combined a Djurdja Watson black jet necklace with Swarovski crystals (£476.00) with a Topshop metal multi-strand watch necklace in silver (£50.00)
Tumblr media
M further accessorized her look with a Chanel metal ope-work, enamel, resin and gripoix cuff (£1,724.00)...

Tumblr media
Marina's jewelry here included a Tom Binns Design Punk Chic metal necklace (£895.00), a Djurdja Watson gold-plated silver and brass necklace with Swarovski crystals (£389.00), and a Hoss Intropia silk and crystal cuff (£79.50).

Tumblr media
Here, Marina wore the Lolita bodysuit (£439.00) from Bebaroque's "Matador" collection with embroidery inspired by Spanish traditional matador costumes and historical embroidery.
She layered a L'Agence cotton skirt (£170.00) with a Topshop tulle and diamanté maxi skirt (£70.00).
Tumblr media
Her jewelry starts off with this beautiful Chanel Pre-Fall 2010 "Paris-Shanghai" collection gold metal, enamel and silk tassel necklace (£2,285.00).
She also wore Tom Binns Design crystal earrings (£120.00), the Felder Felder studded leather cuffs (£200.00 each), Pebble London gold-plated, onyx and coral ring (£165.00) and Sarah Ho London 18ct white-gold, topaz and diamond ring (£4,760.00).

Last but definitely not least, Marina poses in this Emilio Pucci Fall/Winter 2010 mustard-yellow ostrich feather jacket (£4,865.00), which I promise, would go missing if it was near me.

Dame Vivienne Isabel Westwood DBE RDI British Fashion designer and climate change activist, who defined the look of punk, used rock iconography, royalty, art and religion as recurring motifs in collections that brought a rebellious edge to British style, and later she went on to a long career in high fashion, died Thursday in Clapham, South London, at age 81 💔
Largely responsible for bringing modern punk and new-wave fashions into the mainstream. Westwood’s fashion career got underway in earnest on the punk scene in 1970s London, and her collections influenced bands like the Sex Pistols and Siouxie and the Banshees.
Her provocative creations appeared on supermodels and celebrities and influenced mainstream fashion. The corsets, platform shoes and mini-crinis (a combination of Victorian crinoline and miniskirt) became her hallmarks.
Tumblr media
She married Andreas Kronthaler, a former student of hers and 25 years her junior, in 1992. He became the creative director of her company and increasingly was responsible for design work in later years.
She was granted an Order of the British Empire medal in 1992, the designer accepted the honour from Queen Elizabeth II while wearing a sober grey skirt suit.

The designer was made a Dame for services to fashion in 2006
Westwood lobbied the British government to ban the retail sale of fur alongside other top designers including Stella McCartney.
Vivienne Westwood was the designer behind the iconic Carrie Bradshaw's Sex and the City Wedding Gown, a film which was released in 2008.
Tumblr media
Per Vogue: The Cloud dress was first seen in the brand’s Gold Label 2007-08 collection and was re-designed by the designer specifically for the character.
Tumblr media
The corset top was created in gold-backed ivory silk-satin duchess and the skirt from meters of ivory silk Radzimir taffeta, creating an exaggerated silhouette, nipped-in waist and a pointed sculptural bust.
Tumblr media
By the 2000s, Westwood was designing wedding dresses for the likes of model Dita Von Teese, who dressed in her purple gown to marry singer Marilyn Manson and Princess Eugenie who wore Westwood designs for the wedding of Prince William and Catherine.
In addition, Westwood’s costuming work also included designing Miss Piggy’s wedding gown in the 2014 film Muppets Most Wanted. The Victoria and Albert Museum, which houses some of her works, described Westwood as a "true revolutionary and rebellious force in fashion".
youtube
Westwood wrote regularly on issues of climate and social justice on her website.

NEWS: CÎROC VODKA X MJB SPECIAL COLLABORATION WITH SIENNA VALENTINE.
——————————————————————————————
Tumblr media
CÎROC VODKA AND BRITISH FASHION HOUSE MJB DROP A LIMITED EDITION BOTTLE AND CAPSULE COLLECTION WITH SIENNA VALENTINE.
WORDS FILIPE PHITZGERARD - IMAGES COURTESY OF CÎROC VODKA
Iconic brand CÎROC Ultra Premium Vodka has unveiled their latest collaboration with the fashion industry, and, after a long list of successful creative endeavours with names such as Moschino, Vivienne Westwood, and Fiorucci just to name a few, this time around CÎROC teams up with British fashion house MJB to release a limited edition CÎROC Summer Pomegranate bottle and cap wrapped in MJB’s red design. The bottle was inspired by an epic summer sunset with a bright and bold psychedelic like pattern. Marc Jacques Burton and his eponymous label MJB have become highly sought after by A-list celebrities from Travis Scott, Migos, Young Thug, Gigi Hadid, Tom Hardy, Zayn Malik, and Winnie Harlow among many others proving that his ability to create outstanding and unique contemporary fashion is helping to define high-end streetwear.
The campaign for this season's drop features superstar winery owner, Sienna Valentine, famous for her global number one brand, 777 Wine. The collaboration has also seen another of CÎROC’s partners coming in to create the exclusive and unique personalised bottle by specialist creators, INKD.
Tumblr media
MJB has become known and recognisable for its ability to integrate various innovative artistic processes into its designs which have been transferred into the creation for the design of this eye-catching and highly memorable bottle. MJB's creative director Marc Jacques Burton took inspiration from his very own hand-sprayed Fall/ Winter 2023 collection and it’s distinctive dark colour scheme. Burton's signature can be easily recognised by a striking red and gold pattern which has added an smooth 3D texture and overall feel which is seen throughout his collection. This same design and approach were brought into the design of the bottle and replicated both on the bottle and trucker caps, which customers will receive as a gift alongside the purchase of the bottle in limited quantities. It can't get any better than this, right?
Tumblr media
The collaboration between CÎROC Ultra Premium Vodka, Sienna Valentine is the 2nd time the two have worked together, with her 1st collection selling out in under 2 hours last year. This exciting drop from CÎROC and INKD for fans to add to their collection will include her Strawberry Lemonade wine, Cîroc’s Pomegrante Vodka and Valentine’s new Lemon Drop Kits. As well as bring a much-needed sense of joy and positivity into our lives as the colourway used to create the bottle are warm and energizing.
From the 23rd of February, the bottle will be available exclusively on www.geiitinkd.com from 12 PM PST until stock lasts.
