	Vivienne Westwood
		Although her influence extends far beyond the era, Westwood's relationship with the punk subculture is critically important to an understanding of her style.
		In 1985 Westwood launched her "mini-crini," a short hooped skirt inspired by the Victorian crinoline, and styled with a tailored jacket and platform shoes.
		Westwood insisted that "there was never a fashion invented that was more sexy, especially in the big Victorian form." She also revived the corset, another much maligned item of Victoriana—and an icon of fetish fashion.

		Vivienne Westwood was made a Dame of the British Empire last month by Queen Elizabeth II, and she's one of just a handful of designers due to be fêted at the upcoming AngloMania exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute, but she hasn't given up on her trademark brand of rebellious dishabille.
		Tartans, bustiers, toga wrapping, and Edwardian pannier skirts—all essential elements of the Westwood vocabulary—came fast and furious down her wooden-plank catwalk on models with glossy red lips and tousled upswept hair.
		Sure to please her loyal acolytes were the slouchy suede booties, the bustled skirts with unfinished hems, and the little cardigans (of course, she had the models wearing them backward, buttons askew).

		In Vivienne Westwood, the exhibition catalogue accompanying the iconoclastic fashion designer’s current retrospective at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, curator Claire Wilcox gives a chronological account of Westwood’s life, work and ideas starting in September 1970 and pushing to the present.
		Alongside Wilcox’s eloquent text are striking photographs of Westwood’s oeuvre, from the clothes that first inspired the Anti-Establishment Punk movement in London to Westwood’s recent “Establishment From Within” collections.

	Vivienne Westwood Interview
		Westwood recalls, "is that we wanted to make a stand against the American involvement in the Vietnam War and in the process be part of the youth rebellion." They did and, as we all know, it was the beginning of generations looking back and evaluating their own lifetime’s culture.
		Still, Vivienne was committed to young people and the idea of being modern pirates who longed to plunder history.
		In 1995, Vivienne was quoted as saying, "I do believe that my clothes are a criticism of mediocrity and orthodoxy." You could say the same thing in a way about her attitude concerning everything she does.
