Vivienne Westwood Fall 2011

vivienne-westwood-london-fall-2011-fashionadoMother Earth, yes, our planet, served as the muse for the Fall 2011 fashion collection for Brittish designer Vivienne Westwood. But don't worry, Westwood didn't send crunchy granola eating, birkenstock wearing, hairy legged womyn down the runway! Instead, Westwood embraced the natural side of femininity with her personal style of activism - through high fashion.

Glittered warriors marched and sparkled down the runway in punk inspired make-up, which was quite apropos for Westwood, the mother of punk style herself.

All "types" of women were represented in all types of [fashion] styles. From tweeds to tulle, there was the "prim lady" and the "party girl" and even a tribute to Hollywood legend Jean Harlow.

Shiny gold was the color du jour.

Westwood's always been a little off the beaten fashion path and we love her for that. She has a special way of interpreting her artistic, political and social views with an intellect and sensibility that's in your face without being in your face. I'm a fan!
