I just use fashion as an excuse to talk about politics. Because I'm a fashion designer, it gives me a voice, which is really good. Vivienne Westwood designerexcusefashion Change image and share on social
I really don't like women who try to be men. All these politicians, I think they're horrendous. We could have a brilliant future, but we have this terrible male vision of destroying everything. They'd better sort themselves out and become more womanly. Vivienne Westwood brilliantdestroyfuture share on social
I'm different from any other designer, businesswise, in that I've built this company up and I own it. I never had business hype behind me to promote my image... My image is real... I have never had marketing people telling me what to do. Vivienne Westwood buildbusinessbusinesswise share on social

I've always felt heroic about my life... As a child, I remember little girls in the playground moaning about how boys could do more than they could. I didn't think that was the case at all. My parents didn't treat me as a girl. Vivienne Westwood boycasechild share on social
I've always had my own access to the public, because I started off making my clothes for a little shop, and so I've always had people buying them. I could always sell a few, even if I couldn't sell a lot, and somehow my business grew because people happened to like it. I'm in a fortunate position.

I'm always attracted to people who interest me. They've got to be people who are really true to themselves somehow, and who are always trying to do something that makes their life more interesting, or better, or something for somebody else. They're interested in people. Vivienne Westwood attracthaveinterest share on social
