About the Item

These incredible, rare trousers were the final look at Vivienne Westwood’s 2000 show “Summertime”. The final Vivienne Westwood collection of the 20th century was marked by a bacchanalian celebration. Rife with symbolism representing Bacchus, the Roman god of agriculture, wine and fertility, signs of revelry abounded throughout the runway show. Floral prints and damp-hued fabrics were sabotaged with grass stains and red wine spillage. These trousers are an iconic piece of Vivienne Westwood trophy vintage and would be a great addition to the archive of any collector of this label. Made in Italy, they are tailored from coated linen with a stiff, waterproof effect and a canvas-like handle. The print is taken from an Elizabethan wallpaper design. Rendered in a deep aubergine purple, it shows winding, interlaced vines and fantastical florals. Faded burgundy stains smatter the pale ecru background of the cloth, as though the wearer has spilled glass-upon-glass of red wine whilst dancing. These trousers are cut to an extra-long length and are gathered in an erratic manner at the bottom hems so that they pool at the floor around the feet in the deconstructed way that is the brand’s trademark. The waist is narrow and is secured with a hidden white zip and a gold button engraved with Vivienne Westwood’s instantly-recognisable Orb logo. There are slip pockets in the side seams and all of the stitching is in pale pink cotton. They are unlined. These collectable trousers are in excellent vintage condition with no flaws. The composition label states that they are 80% Linen, 20% Viscose. They are labelled a size UK 10 but vintage Westwood clothing runs very small by today's standards. The fabric has no stretch. Our model is a UK 6-8, US 2-4 and 5ft 4in. (163 cm) and these were tight on the waist. MEASUREMENTS: WAIST: 24 in. ( 61 cm ) HIP: 36 in. (91 cm ) RISE: 12.5 in. ( 32 cm) INSIDE LEG SEAM: 30 in. ( 76 cm ) TOTAL LENGTH: 43.5 in. (111 cm)
