I was in the office today and  we were talking about  Vivienne Westwood sending a  birthday card Big Brother constestant, David Ramsden, when one  person listening into our convo  said  “who is Vivienne Westwood ? does she make wallpaper?”.  

I have no idea how someone can live in London and not know  who Vivienne Westwood is. Thats like living in the US and not knowing  Elvis or an Australian not knowing Nicole Kidman.  Vivienne Westwood practically invented the Punk style and is one of the most influential British designers in the world. For her Autumn Winter 2009 -2010 Gold Collection she has once again cast herself , her husband, Andreas Knronthaler and blonde bombshell, Pamela Anderson. The campaign makes heavy use of plaid (tartan) and stripes. These two patterns feature prominently in Vivienes collections.

I'm loving Vivienne Westwood's Spring Summer RTW collection. It's a combination of classic clothing with a buccaneer influence giving it a wholly unconventional look. The eye patches, swords and bandanas give the presentation vibes of "Treasure Island". Vivienne  must be expecting a scorcher of a summer  next  year as the collection has  quite a few  "short shorts".  More images of the collection are below and after the jump.

NB: I apologize for this post in advance. last time i made a post about Peaches Geldof I  made a poll and 100% of readers said they "wish she would go away"

The Geldof girls are the subject of Ben Westwoods Photoshop  Cut & Paste mish mash Art Exhibition. Ben Westwood is best known as  the son of iconic designer  Vivienne Westwood.
 
"Ben's Spawn: Bound show, which features this shocking image of the sisters naked and bound together with ropes emblazoned with names of dad Bob and their late mum Paula Yates. "

"I was sitting on my mate's loo thumbing through a copy of a weekend supplement and came across this interview where she was talking about drugs and partying and marriage, but referred to herself as 'celebrity spawn'."

I am sure the Geldof girls, Peaches and Pixie must be angered by this.. uh… "Art Exhibit". I am not a big fan of Peaches and even I think this is so wrong.

For ages it had been rumoured that Pam Anderson would do the  Spring Summer Ad campaign for British designer, Vivienne Westwood. The canadian Actress who has for ages epitomized and defined the "California Blonde" despite  hailing from North of the US border. Pam has shown with this  campaign that she can also adapt to  a more indie, British  punk rock look.

Agyness Deyn's Male Clone , Luke Worrall is the new face of Vivienne Westwood Accessories.  As expected from Vivienne, the ads are quirky and eclectic. Luke Worrall is currently  the 3rd highest ranked British Male model according to Models.com, so it isnt surprising that he booked this job.
