The famous British fashion designer “Queen of the West” Vivienne Westwood died in London on Thursday (29th) at the age of 81.
Vivienne Westwood passed away peacefully surrounded by her family, her studio said in a statement.
Vivienne Westwood’s bold and avant-garde clothing style has a high status in the fashion industry. Vivienne Westwood is one of the fashion designers who were deeply influenced by punk culture in the 1970s. She once said, “I am the savior of punk culture. How can anyone leave a comment in this culture?” “Punk Costume” includes signature accessories like bondage ties, safety pins, blades and chains, as well as exaggerated hair and makeup.
Some of Vivienne Westwood’s works are collected by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England. The museum describes her as a real revolutionary force in the fashion industry. She was awarded an OBE by the British Royal Family and was made a Dame in 2006. British Culture Secretary Donnellan expressed his condolences on social networking sites, describing it as a sad day.
