Vivienne Westwood UK
JEWELLERY EXHIBITION
Jewellery has played an integral role in defining the Vivienne Westwood look. From the very beginning, Westwood’s journey has been intertwined with the craft. The exhibition will explore the design codes and subversive spirit of the British design house through this prism.
Marking the first time the special archive and runway pieces, from across four decades, have been curated and displayed as a collection, the exhibition will offer a retrospective look at the house’s extensive history of jewellery design – encompassing Westwood’s sensibilities for historical reference, the subversion of past and present ideas - and socio-political themes.
Visitors can expect eclectic pairings of jewellery and garments – each creation presented as an ‘objet d’art’, surrounded by a 'chaos’ of wall prints and sounds, catwalk looks, imagery, and video, recalling iconic past collections and runway shows, and offering a unique perspective into the Vivienne Westwood world.
