Fashion || MENSWEAR: Vivienne Westwood Fall 2010
In true unapologetic fashion, Vivienne Westwood presented a runway of
menswear inspired by the homeless. The forced mix of patterns, including plaids and deco-knits,
lends support to the idea of mind boggling street-chic fashion from men seeking shelter.

yet gathers some forward-thinking combinations of separates.
Ironically her concepts channel some of the unfortunate economic challenges faced in 2009
when nearly no man was safe from facing financial trials and tribulations.

For this reason theres a lot of irony in this collection as the face of homelessness is changing.
Lets not ignore the cause: Several knit garments featured statements about climate change,
loyalty to Gaia (Earth), and the future of human life.

I had to feature the photograph of Vivienne rolling out on the runway in a stretcher. CLASSIC!
