Vivienne Westwood dies at 81 His social network personal account announced the news. According to reports, she died peacefully at her home in London surrounded by her family.
Dame Vivian Isabel Westwood was born in Cheshire, England, and moved to London at the age of 17. She used to work as a teacher. Her exposure to punk culture began with her second husband, Malm McLaren, the founder and manager of a famous British rock band. She gave rock a typical look and has been influencing the look of modern rock youth. As a designer, Vivian is deviant. Her designs completely break away from traditional clothing features, and combine various unimaginable materials and methods in an almost brutal way. And it is precisely this grotesque and absurd form that has won the applause of young people.
In film, Vivian has also made achievements. She participated in the costume design of "Sex and the City" and deeply influenced the clothes and jewelry of the heroine Osaki Nana in Yazawa Ai's manga "NANA". In addition, she has designed costumes for the movie "Leaving Las Vegas" and the opera "Threepenny" and "The Village". |
