She was one of a kind.
You expect people to go on for ever, somehow.

her and malcolm mcLaren very 80's oddball designs, didn't he sell tshirts with rips in them for punks?

[Gromit]

Fender62,
She designed them (ripped T-shirts) about 1976 though.
Lately Theresa May has been a fan.

I don’t think Vivienne would mind Rita being mentioned on the same thread

Gromit, thanks.. was not into punk myself, just remember seeing him
hanging around with her in tabloids, knew he had something to do with the sex pistols ?

Didn't much like punk but I did like Vivienne Westwood a lot . Love feisty women with orange hair and who wear quirky clothes rather than be a slave to fashion. Fun lady. RIP.

I always thought her a funny old thing ... but a nice lady.
