The late, great Dame Vivienne Westwood passed away in 2022, but her legacy is alive and well on the red carpet.
The responsibility for maintaining that legacy – which includes punk influences, impeccable corsetry and political activism – has been passed to Westwood’s son-in-law Andreas Kronthaler, who has shared Westwood’s creative process since they first met in 1988.
This unwavering vision is part of the reason why celebrities continue to clamor for all things Westwood. From custom to archival looks, here are a handful of the latest looks from one of fashion’s most beloved labels.
Does “Cannes” dig it? At the 77th annual Cannes Film Festival this May, Vivienne Westwood was omnipresent. Attending the 2024 AmfAr Gala, supermodel Barbara Palvin Sprouse wore a peach creation that fit so beautifully it looked like it was made just for her—because it was.
Cannes jury member and Bond girl extraordinaire Eva Green exuded gothic glamor in her Vivienne Westwood ensemble for a photocall, while Hunter Schafer’s fun and floral look for a Nespresso x Brut party could be described as best as “Euphoric”.
After the release of her eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, the head of the department (aka global megastar Taylor Swift) also decided it was time to get in on the Westwood action. On her wild Eras globe tour, she unveiled a custom visual featuring lyrics from the new album buried at the bottom.
The collaboration couldn’t be more fitting, as “I love you, you’re ruining my life” is not only a lyric from the summer hit “Fortnight”, but also the exact phrase uttered by anyone who presses “add to cart” while studying Westwood’s text. goods online.
Actress Daisy Edgar-Jones – who starred alongside Glen Powell in the summer blockbuster Twisters – looked gorgeous and sharp in her custom Vivienne Westwood look for the film’s London premiere. While the black and brown color combination may not suit the most understated of stylists, the shades pair beautifully with the actress’ soft brown hair and light complexion.
A slew of other recent Westwood wearers further prove just how ubiquitous the brand’s influence is in Hollywood. At the premiere of Shell at the Toronto International Film Festival this month, Kate Hudson embodied Westwood’s classic deconstructed glamor in a two-tone pink dress that lit up the room.
Promoting Beetlejuice Beetlejuice at the Venice Film Festival, Italian icon Monica Bellucci opted for a high-drama black dress, while co-star Jenna Ortega revived a look from the designer’s spring 2009 collection while promoting the film in Mexico City.
Finally, the talented Mr. Andrew Scott looked dapper in a Westwood suit at the Emmys last Sunday, where he was nominated for his role as the title character in Netflix’s Ripley.
