I'm frugal. I'm not a very acquisitive woman. I never waste food. If you prepare your own food, you engage with the world, it tastes alive. It tastes good.
From Vivienne Westwood
My aim is to make the poor look rich and the rich look poor.
I have certain signatures, certain cutting principles. It could be a raw-edged seam; it could be leaving the lining of sheepskin exposed so it's not perfectly finished. I invent new ways to do it, but the end goal is always the same.
I'm very lucky. The public happens to like me. Maybe they like me because I use every opportunity to talk about injustice.
But, having a perfume and license, in general, is a financial necessity. A designer must, to reap back the money spent on prototypes and all that sort of thing.
I think that feminists have definitely underestimated the role that women have had historically. I think I would be insecure if I were to be a man; there's so much pressure on you.
We wanted to step off our island and add the color of the third world. We got gold cigarette paper and stuck it around our teeth. We really did look like pirates and dressed to look the part.
I was the first person to have a punk rock hairstyle.
To me, reading a fashion magazine is the last thing I need to do. I've got books I need to read.
More people should read books. It's the most concentrated experience you can have.
