Vivienne Westwood 35 Years of fashion “AGAINST”
The Victoria & Albert Museum in London brings Vivienne Westwood to Palazzo Reale in Milan. From the 26 September to the 20 gennaio 2008 you can visit the greatest tribute ever made to the muse of the punk movement. The exhibition documents the career of the designer starting from 1965 and her first meeting with Malcolm McLaren to the present day.
After leaving London the exhibition has visited Canberra, Shangai, Tokyo and Bangkok, only to mention a few. The last stop is now Italy and here it will stay until the 20th of January. Accompanying the impressive costumes and accessories there are video installations showing some of her most famous fashion shows. Vivienne was the one, that from here little shop in King’s Road, London, launched the Sex Pistols, detested and fought the hypocrisy of the age, and the codes of behaviour of the establishment.
And although she has been so celebrated throughout the years the designer has not lost her revolting manners. To inaugurate the exhibition she enounced, “This is a terrible world, where no one thinks, everyone watches TV and no one reads books or pays interest in art. People continuously want to express themselves, but they are empty inside and got nothing to say, they are only boring!
Then she adds, there is still hope of a change though, if you immerse yourself into art something inside you will change, and if you change yourself, hopefully also the world can change.
Visiting the city of fashion, don’t miss this occasion of seeing an important part of its history. For information and booking telephone 02/54919. Website
