Vivienne Westwood

[Caribeing]

Vivienne Westwood English born designer and Dame in todays paper says she hates England, says Scots are more democratic, I am not Scot or English but I hate Vivienne's style and fashion!

[Mamyalynne]

Rightio.

[237SJ]

She`s just trying to be controversial - that is how she built her career.

[Caribeing]

Biting the hand that feeds her!

[trt]

She's a silly cow IMO, and her fashion style is crap IMO, and if she designed a dress from a bin bag, people would buy it because of her name!

[Mick-the-Miller]

She'd do virtually anything for publicity - who cares what she thinks!

[237SJ]

"She`s a silly cow" She`s not silly cow. She is a very astute businesswoman who has made an awful lot of money.

[Prudie]

The one thing I'd say is she truly believes in herself, she's not done it for publicity and is highly respected amongst her peers. Yes she's eccentric as are some of her clothes - at least she actually designs, more than can be said about VB's tubes.

Fashion is rubbish

[Prudie]

LOL Daisy, tell it like it is ;-)

[237SJ]

"Fashion is rubbish" Rubbish that is a multi-million pound industry

[woofgang]

so what was the question?

[woofgang]

PS mamya for best answer!

[askyourgran]

I read that too caribeing. I hope she takes off to Scotland and stays there, she has a lousy style of dress, and always looked a mess as far as I'm concerned.

[askyourgran]

I rather like some of VB's fashion.

[anneasquith]

VB is Scottish :)

I think she's great! Look at her designs for last year's Vienna New year Ballet concert http://senatus.net/article/vivienne-westwood-designs-ballet-outfits-vienna-philharmonic-new-year-concert/- it made me proud to be British, fabulous!!

Fashion designers have a habit of uttering ill-considered comments ...
