Dame Vivienne Westwood has died aged 81
Her husband and creative partner Andreas Kronthaler said: "I will continue with Vivienne in my heart. We have been working until the end and she has given me plenty of things to get on with."The legendary designer rose to fame in the 1970s with her controversial punk and new wave styles and went on to dress some of the biggest names in fashion.
"Vivienne continued to do the things she loved, up until the last moment, designing, working on her art, writing her book, and changing the world for the better. She led an amazing life. Her innovation and impact over the last 60 years has been immense and will continue into the future. Westwood is renowned for thrusting modern punk and new wave fashion into the mainstream after working with the Sex Pistols' Malcolm McLaren in the 1970s.
Westwood was equally passionate about a range of political causes, including civil rights groups, climate change and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, and wasn't afraid to bring her activism to the runway.
