Vivienne Westwood at Pairs Fashion Week Spring 2013


Vivienne Westwood 2013 Spring Show was named for "Climate Revolution". Although she claimed the name has little connection with the new series, however we still feel the thrill of a state of anarchy in her unfinished-fashion desisgn. Her style is never slick and this new series distribute a positive sense of simplicity, like a England idyllic simplifying certain misery.
It is held in the British embassy, approved by Sir Peter Ricketts who has enjoyed an illustrious career marked by stints as chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee and head of the Diplomatic Service.


In the embassy, filled with 19th century furniture, 20th century famous paintings on the wall which integrate the atmosphere of the show extremely. This is classic for her, finding inspirations from history, during her 40 years fashion designer career. Sir Peter explained: "This is a magic opportunity to use the building to promote British fashion, which I gather is worth £20 billion a year to the British economy." And he added: "This is an an experiment to see if we can do serious fashion here. It is the first fashion show I've been to, and I think it will be an experience."


With a soundtrack, the models dressed in from punk to reggae to classical, long-limbed, crazy-haired girls, stroding across Sir Peter's parquet floors in four-inch platform shoes and a dizzying onrush of outrageous attire. Sheer knit dresses frayed at the hems, Elizabethan seductress jerkins split high at the thigh and a purple metallic bustier topped by two racy horns were just a few of the eye-catchers. Dame Vivienne's undeniable facility for draping and fold - she has a genius for flattering her women, whatever their shape - was visible too. This, though, was often eclipsed by asylum-worthy styling that saw the models' faces painted with hearts and their heads occasionally crowned with outsized poufs.
So stay tuned, you will find more surprise.
