There are very few genuine icons of sustainability within the fashion space, and even fewer above a certain age. But it was Vivienne Westwood’s unwavering lifelong devotion to improving the world, often via the industry, that earned her not only legions of fans – and, in turn, shoppers – but also a Damehood for services to fashion.
Her instantly-recognisable aesthetic and loyal dedication to making clothes to flatter real women’s bodies saw her become a true icon within the industry. But thanks to an innate willingness to question the established order, Vivienne was always so much more than a fashion designer.
Since the news of her death broke last week fans have been mourning the loss of an icon, but many others have been newly-introduced to the conscious, thought-provoking side of the passionate activist.

On shopping consciously…
On living frugally…
On repairing…
On upcycling…
On designing…
