Australian Television Premiere: Tuesday 21st February, 8.30pm
An up close and personal look at the life and work of the ageing “enfant terrible” of the fashion world, Vivienne Westwood. The film looks beyond her eccentricity and desire for shock value, examining what drives and influences her to create the quirky and original pieces which have made her reputation.
Throughout there is an artisanal attention to detail and process, which often involves her individually working by hand. We also witness at close quarters her complex relationship with her younger husband and “creative associate”, often leading to some tense and humourous exchanges and situations.
