Vivienne Westwood Store Re-Launch

Last Thursday Evening I was delighted to be invited to the re-launch of Manchester's Vivienne Westwood Store on behalf of Manchester Fashion Week. This post is picture heavy so apologies for that, however I thought you have to see it to experience what I did!

I was greeted by some of the store's staff who were all suitably kitted out in fabulous Vivienne Westwood outfits and treating guests to a glass of fizz! I was particularly excited about this event, as for me Ms Westwood is one of the most iconic British Designers. Vivienne uses structure and tailoring and then takes it to the next level. The garments are not for the fashion fearful as often they are made in a quirky, yet quintessentially British prints or style which sets apart the Westwood brand as being instantly recognisable yet unique.

The new store is beautiful, it feels very much like you have stumbled across an old English boutique where the surrounding decor is as much to take in as the clothing and accessories on the racks! It features alot of wood panelling, leather and again completely reinforces the classic British vibes of the designs.

I absolutely adore Vivienne Westwood Bags just incase the various photos haven't already indicated! They feature the Westwood crest and come in a very wide variety of finishes and fabrics. One of my favourite collections are the tartan bags as I think they are so different to what any other brand has done this season.

I am a handbag queen and I long to add a Westwood bag to my collection one day! Maybe Santa will hear my plea and pop one under the tree for me?

Another aspect of the store that I particularly like is that it caters for all Westwood lovers in terms of the range of clothes and accessories in there. For those who may not have the budget for a Vivienne Westwood outfit will be impressed by the vast array of jewellery  and accessories available at the store.

If you are still on the hunt for a fabulous Christmas Present then I would suggest you pop to the new store to take a look, there is definitely something for everyone and I am positive you will enjoy your shopping experience in there!
