What do you get when you mix sexy with punk fashion? Vivienne Westwood’s Paris pret a porter show. Even if you were sitting far behind the runway, you couldn’t miss the colors. They were loud. The designer who has been the muse for many up and comers spared no creative expense in putting together a show that mixed golds with light blues on an asymmetrical dress and in turn has an “I am not a terrorist” shirt and matching belt in the same show.
Did I mention the make-up and hair? Think dark gray goth-like lipstick, heavy mascara and gel’d hair to the side. Everything about the fashion screamed Vivienne Westwood’s signature style. Is it wearable? Yes and maybe. Some of the shorts were just way too short for my taste, but that is fashion. I shudder to think though, that someone who shouldn’t wear them, will probably attempt to this summer.
Either way, it was an honor simply being there.

This was the epitome of simple, yet creatively inspired at the same time. Other than that, this was a missable show. [...]
