Vivienne Westwood: Fashion, Perversity, and the Sixties Laid Bare

Vivienne Westwood was born the Queen of punk rock. Her fashions first scandalized and then fascinated the world. Today, she is rated as one of the world's most influential fashion designers. She has never lost her power to shock. From her models parading bare breasted down Paris catwalks to her notorious look no knickers! pose inside the gates of Buckingham Palace, her characteristically anarchic outrageousness is one of the reasons she is probably the most talked-about designer on both sides of the Atlantic. But little is known about this essentially private woman who conceals herself behind enigmatic and aloof remarks.
