To appreciate art, we must put aside our own views to see from the artist's perspective, to see things as they really are from more than one standpoint. When we can tolerate other viewpoints, it is then that we can find meaning in and enjoy art, even if the choice of materials may be upsetting.
Vivienne Westwood has true genius and while I do agree that using fur is unnaceptable and vile, I think it's worth pointing out that designers using leather don't get the same bad press. This seems hypocritical given that leather used for shoes, clothing and furniture is NOT a byproduct of the meat industry but farmed for fashion the same way fur is.
While I don't really care for this collection, I really love the spirit within it. I loved the stiltwalkers! Fashion is becoming more & more commercial, with shows becoming shorter & shorter. In the landscape of fashion, this is fun, exhilirating & refreshing. I see good pieces in here too. I love the look at 1:30. It's nice to see a mix of black and white models. I think the difference between skin colour really emphasizes the beauty of each woman, rahter than a homogenous series of women.
you just have to realise the majority of the world is filled with idiots whod rather dress the same as eachother in their primark specials! Like cheap robots of society!
That's true, but there are also people who look different and fantastic, who don't aim to look like embalmed circus freaks. My main complaint with Viv is the fur. Get ugly as you want, Viv, but don't torture wild animals for your preposterous get-ups. Search You-Tube "fur farm" and see how Viv gets fur. It will give you nightmares. It's a great way to get skinny too, because you won't be able to eat a thing after watching. (Bet none of these bozo designers ever consider the source.)
I own a vivienne westwood rabbit fur bag which I wear with pride! Burn the bunnys! Dont force your beliefs on others! ANd before you start Yes I would Be skined myself and turned into a bag! X
I can understand eating meat 4 nurishment but killing ANY anmimal in the name of "fashion" is so UNECESSARY. As for there being "More bunnies in the future" that is not the point. The point is THE SUFFERING THESE ANIMALS MUST ENDURE MOST ARE SKINNED WHILE STILL ALIVE & THE ONES THAT ARE KILLED ARE KILLED IN UNIMAGINABLY CRUEL WAYS These "must have" fur coats are not worth all the pain inflicted on these poor creatures & yes FAUX FUR IS THE WAY TO GO
Who was tlking about only 10 yrs ago? 1998? R U retarded?In caveman days people needed 2 wear fur 4 survival.2day humans have evolved beyond any necessary predatory intinct.& history shouldnt dictate the standard for kindness especially 4animals who have no voice of their own. so many things were acceptable in the past that arent today...
NYcvega13 just STOP debating. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about & have yet to make a valid point.... this is becoming ridiculous......
This is getting out of hand. Not only have u posted like 5 new messsages on here but u also felt the need to send me a personal message telling me about how you have a brain tumor...U R obviously a weirdo... I just stated an opinion & you turned it into a circus freak show... & as 4 me not caring about other issues,how would you know? I am only expressing my opinion on this one particular issue cuz it was the topic at hand I actually happen to be passionate about quite a few different things....
Being A Smart Ass Doesnt really work for you...I thought you were done commenting,I'm tired of getting E-mails from Youtube when you reply to my comments...how progressed is this "tumor" of yours?? gonna kick the bucket soon or what? & Skinny Puppy Sucks....
i was serious actually and it's going to happen when I'm 23 right now I'm 14 so yeah i have a while to go you are just a pretty ignorant person crap my lip is twitching and stinging i wonder why? oh well i just hate... nothing dude you are alive i am insane i drive myself insane
I'm actually pretty far from ignorant, but I agree with you on one thing- You are insane, a regular fucking looney tune... Just drop dead already, I think you have polluted the world enough in your 14 year existence...
I'm the idiot yet you're the one with the fucked up spelling & grammar. How do I know anything about you? YOU are the one who said you were insane I just merely agreed with you.
You're the one who went around making asumptions. Anyway You're not gonna get the last word you freak, so all we're doing is blowing up a Vivienne Westwood youtube video so give up already & disappear....
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Looks like Vivienne could use a nice long rest in a quiet setting. I like the quote, "Before becoming a designer, Westwood was a school teacher." Is that an explanation, or an apology? Whatever, this is just pathetic. I love the audience clapping for the stilts. And animals were killed for this trash!
Shut up if you have nothing positive to say! Really, Her mind is of a pioneer in the world of fashion and what she does is innovation, You and PETA and go and get your tool kit and go F*** a garage!
at least she is different and not just another abercrombie wannabe that this world is full of. her work is full of creativity and original thinking, something that needs to be supported not put down. it sounds like you want a world where people dress the same and try to be merely accepted by society.
Excellent point. But different and original doesn't have to be frighteningly hideous. These designs are good as fantasy horror goes, but they have no bearing on real life. It's just total crap to call this fashion.

omg... i TOTALLY 100% agree with u... i don't think this is fashion.. you can't just put a bunch of miss-matched clothes together and call it fashion... i understand the "original and different" point ppl try to make but there's a level of that...you can still stay within the norm and be creative and artistic too... and that's where the challenge is.. this is my opinion... not meant to offend anyone =]

Burn The Bunnies? NO,BURN HEARTLESS MORONIC
MONSTERS like you......
WEBBY370 3 years ago
well people eat bunny meat anyway.
same with leather. most people have lether shoes and don't even know it.
farm animals may as well be used for fur or leather if their going to be eaten anyway.
what's better, thrown in a ditch or turned into something that makes people happy?
NYcvega13 3 years ago
that comment just makes it clear that you know NOTHING about the fur trade....
WEBBY370 3 years ago
yeah i don't
what's wrong with it anyway?
in the past people used it to survive
why not use it now
there will be plenty more bunnies in the future
i guess fake fur has gotten good enough and looks better than real fur

WEBBY370 3 years ago
that sucks
back when i lived in Russia i had a fur coat
because there was nothing else available that was warm. seriously i don't even know how my mom got that coat
there wasn't even anything to eat at that time
seriously 95... bad year.
you walked into a store with or without money, and there was nothing there. even in Moscow
where i lived
NYcvega13 3 years ago
does it matter what kind of material fake fur is made of? Anyway, there are plenty of other fabrics that are warm that arent even fur fake or not....
WEBBY370 3 years ago
well not at that time
there wasn't
now there is
NYcvega13 3 years ago
Which is exactly why fur has no place in this day in age...
WEBBY370 3 years ago
so it was okay ten years ago?
people kill animals anyway
thats life
we are the ultimate predator
and don't get me wrong i think animals are cute
and all. not like people in the past treated animals any differently

WEBBY370 3 years ago
i'm talking about a country called Russia
and sorry... not ten years ago, 13 years ago
yeah you so don't need fur to survive in a country where it gets 40 below zero c*
if you ever were there at that time you might have understood
it wasn't about fashion back then
NYcvega13 3 years ago
NYcvega13 just STOP debating. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about & have yet to make a valid point.... this is becoming ridiculous......
WEBBY370 3 years ago
I'm good at that aren't i?
making no sense what so ever
I'll make my final point.
i love Vivienne Westwood. if she wasn't alive i wouldn't be (long story) and i don't care how much fur she uses she is still the best
also i don't believe in animal rights
NYcvega13 3 years ago
for some reason you don't care about other things that are worse than fur
have you ever heard of shock art?
like they take an organ out of an animal, put it in a glass box and watch it squirm. oh yeah and put a bunch of hungry bees in the box with it
it's pretty gross. btw.are you vegan too?

NYcvega13 3 years ago
who specifically mentioned swearing? You are such a dumb fucking bitch.... whatever you're going to die anyway....good enough for me =]
