Vivienne Westwood

I love Vivienne Westwood's designs. I love their edge and Vivienne herself ofcourse is an icon in every way. 
I just had to draw THIS portrait of Vivienne Westwood!  



Career highlights: In 1989, Mr. John Fairchild, president of Fairchild publications and editor of the fashion bible Women’s Wear Daily, listed Vivienne Westwood as one of the six most influential designers in the world in his book Chic Savages.

In 1990, Vivienne Westwood was awarded the prestigious title of British designer of the year.

In 2006, her contribution towards British fashion was officially recognized when she was appointed a Dame.

In 2007, Westwood was rewarded with the Outstanding Achievement in Fashion at the British Fashion Awards in London.

Vivienne Westwood is a trustee of Liberty and continues to uses the medium of her shows to talk about culture and politics, more specifically about the urgent need to act against climate change.

Sketchbook Project

Hi there, 

I am busy with a couple of projects so I probably will  not be adding many new drawings in the weeks to come. I will ofcourse add those projects as soon as they are released. 

I have also entered in The Sketchbook Project 2012 (more info under the link). I will sometimes add some of those sketches to my blog. 
This is one of them. For The Sketchbook I picked the theme "Stitches and Folds".

Pleated Skirts!
