About the Item
Introducing the Worlds End by Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren 'Witches' dress, a groundbreaking and visionary creation from the Autumn-Winter 1983 collection.
This exceptional ensemble features pointed sleeves, a striking design element that sets it apart from traditional fashion. The use of checked wool in navy, red, and cream showcases the brand's signature use of unconventional fabrics and bold colour combinations.
The front pleats, uniquely held in place by wooden toggles, add a touch of avant-garde flair, reflecting the collection's deconstructed and transformative approach to design.
A large draped pocket to the front side of the skirt adds both functionality and a sense of drama, making this ensemble as practical as it is innovative.
Prepare to be captivated by the allure of the Worlds End 'Witches' collection, a standout piece that epitomizes Vivienne Westwood and McLaren's legacy of challenging norms and pushing the boundaries of fashion. With its distinctive details, bold use of fabrics, and unparalleled creativity, this ensemble promises to make a lasting impression, reflecting the brand's enduring influence in the world of avant-garde and revolutionary fashion.
