Wear it forever with Vivienne Westwood Loves

Dame Vivienne celebrates unwavering quality and artisanal craftsmanship with Vivienne Westwood Loves: a collaborative project bringing together five brands which share Westwood’s philosophy of quality over quantity. British heritage brands Globe-Trotter,PantherellaGloverallJohnstons of Elgin, and Lock & Co have all joined forces with the formidable designer to update classic Westwood pieces, whilst reminding us to “buy less, choose well, make it last”.
Travel brand Globe-Trotter has worked with Westwood to product a signature luggage set. Available in three sizes and two colourways, the cases are instantly recognisable in Westwood’s trademark tartan and squiggle prints. Pioneer of the Duffle coat, Gloverall, has re-designed the iconic British garment, emblazoning it with Westwood’s manifesto message and Climate Revolution campaign graphics.  Luxury Scottish cashmere brand Johnstons of Elgin has updated its classic knits with Westwood’s “cut & slash” technique, creating an Argyle-patterned cashmere drop-crotch lounge pant to accompany.
Stalwart hatters Lock & Co looked to Westwoods “do it yourself” concept of recycling, reinventing their Lennon and Trilby styles in a variety of her favourite fabrics, with each one produced in a limited run. Finally, fine sock house Pantherella have produced vibrant designs with contrasting toe and heel panels, creating the appearance of odd socks- a signature Westwood design trait.
