Vivienne Westwood was born in 1941. She started sewing clothes since she was a teenager, but her life changed after meeting Malcolm McLaren, who was the manager of the Sex Pistols band. Their creative tandem gained popularity in the 1970s - it was then that the designer was called the founder of the punk and New Wave styles in fashion.

With her actions and deeds, Westwood repeatedly shocked the public and the professional environment. For example, in April 1989, she appeared on the cover of Tatler magazine, wearing an Aquascutum costume that she said was intended for Margaret Thatcher. And in 1992, the designer came to receive the Order of the British Empire from Queen Elizabeth II without a skirt, which she happily showed off to photographers.
