There is nothing like a Dame

It would be more than a dream, as an aspiring fashion writer, to interview Dame Vivienne Westwood. Everything about her bold prints and trashy colours are inviting to the eye, with explosions of vibrancy in every piece. There is no way you can not fall in love with her work. A British born woman that designs for real individuals, and is as wild as her designs. Sticking two fingers up to conformity, Vivienne’s attitude and views have carved her career from starting as an independent UK retailer to the brand she has become today.

The Dame seems to be such an extrovert character; I would be very interested to find out more about her entire life and influences that have led her to become the brand she is today. Vivienne is so much more than just a designer, her input is helping to make changes across the globe and shape a future for its people. This is not an occupation to this woman it is a sheer passion. Designs are the way in which Westwood puts forward her opinions and fashion is not just a daily occurrence but a platform.

A UK design heroine, with works even The Queen has acknowledged. This intricate woman would be the biggest feature of any writer’s career, and would complete mine. The Dame is such a vivacious ambassador and creator, with important messages portrayed through her work and a muse to young designers worldwide. I applaud her influence on the UK fashion scene in all of its brave glory.  Be sure to check out her current 'Chaos' collection, there are some important messages through her work, and very interesting choices for broach details for us girls.
