VIVIENNE WESTWOOD AT THE V&A
34 YEARS IN FASHION - 1 April to 11 July 2004 Vivienne Westwood's unique style was paid tribute to at a private V&A viewing to launch a major exhibition in her honour.
The exhibition is the largest the V&A has ever dedicated to a British designer and will feature more than 150 designs selected from the V&As collection and Vivienne Westwoods personal archive. The show will examine Westwoods career spanning decades, from the advent of punk to the 21st Century.
Westwood has been a major influence on fashion design from haute couture to ready-to-wear. Her career has spanned the punk era including outfits worn by the Sex Pistols in the 70s to grand ball-gowns influenced by historical art and dress.
