VIVIENNE WESTWOOD EARLY - FASHION SHOWS - INVITES

With Pirate, Westwood began an exploration of historical cult and tailoring that would inform her life's work..  The loose-cut trousers and romantic, billowing shirts, with their vermicular 'squiggle'  print,  were based faithfully on 18th-century men's clothing.  Westwood blended the idea of the pirate with the North American Indian and the early 19th-century French Merveilleuses.  This heady mix created a collection that burst onto the London fashion scene in a raiot of gold, orange and yellow.
