sustainible, fashionible and recycled
Vivienne Westwood, a leading icon in the fashion industry has spoken out about the impending
recession and credit crunch and insists she isn't fazed about it.
She said: "Times may always be hard but British fashion has always been eclectic, it's all about not
looking like anybody else. There is a status in wearing your old favourites over and over until they
grow old. It's all about looking glam, not buying cheap rubbish." (Talks Fashion Credit Crunch,
20th Nov 09:24, The Guardian.)
A good idea is to be more creative and not afraid of wearing an item made for another occasion.
"Women should try on their husband's jackets and even boxer shorts for size as outerwear."
(Vivienne Westwood, The Daily, Nov, 2009). It always feels nice wearing clothing that no one else
has, especially in fashion in this very tough and complicated economical time. "Wearing political
badges is also a great look and kerchiefs worn as knickers can be fun for the disco or the beach. You
can also tie tablecloths or even blankets around yourself to look good."(Vivienne Westwood, The
Daily, Nov, 2009).

A four day celebration of alternative fashion and support for new talent, the Alternative Fashion Week 2009 in London's Spitalfields Market promises an exciting experience.

Young artists and new ideas are the hallmarks of the Alternative Fashion Week 09 in London.

Annette Messager (born in 1943, lives and works in Paris) is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most important contemporary artists. The retrospective Annette Messager: The Messengers, presents an overview of the artist’s career and reveals her use of an astonishing and affecting repertoire of forms and materials (among them soft toys, stuffed animals, fabrics, wool, photographs and drawings). Mixing aesthetic registers and playing with remarkable virtuosity on our senses and feelings, this exhibition presents a panoramic survey from the intimate and conceptually driven pieces Messager made in the early 1970s to the very large sculptural installations of the past 15 years, in which movement plays an increasingly important role.
