Is Vivienne Westwood considered luxury?
1 Answer

Yes, Vivienne Westwood is considered luxury. Many people consider Westwood to be the grande dame of British design for her bold pieces that often draw inspiration from historic sources, such as pirates and the Louis XIV era. From 1971, when she and Malcolm McLaren first opened a vintage shop in London, the British designer was interested in provocative, edgy apparel that brought a high-end version of punk to the masses. Her fashion house has fostered a reputation for providing well-made pieces featuring fine materials, like silk and high-quality leather.
