Vivienne Westwood: Designer in Focus


  • Walker Aft Gallery William Brown Street Liverpool, England, L1 1JJ United Kingdom (map)

A captivating new display celebrating the groundbreaking fashion designer's remarkable career spanning over five decades. This stunning showcase brings together a collection of Westwood's revolutionary designs, from her punk beginnings to her status as a British fashion icon.

Located in the Craft & Design Gallery, the display features key pieces from Westwood's most influential collections, including rare items from her collaborations with Malcolm McLaren during the early 1980s. Visitors will discover how Westwood's creative vision evolved from the punk aesthetic of their Kings Road shop to her later explorations of historical dress, global cultures, and classic British tailoring.

Highlights include a grey wool 'Koo tunic' from the Witches Collection (1983-84) featuring artwork by Keith Haring, the iconic 'Dunbar Suit' in pink Gordon tartan from the Anglomania Collection (1993-94) once worn by Frankie Goes to Hollywood's Holly Johnson, and a black velvet suit from the Time Machine Collection (1988-89) gifted by Liverpool-born model Julie Bramwell.
