Vivienne Westwood and skate brand Palace team up for capsule collection
Collection ‘born from subversive and political spirit’ shared by both brands includes clothing, jewellery and skateboards
A print first used by Westwood in her spring/summer 1992 collection that features a French salon scene including images of 20th-century gold frame chairs, marble plinths and glimmering chandeliers has been reimagined on an oversized Gore-Tex hooded jacket, baggy track pants and a silk midi skirt. There are also corsets, a design signature of Westwood, who first revived the garment in 1987, transforming them from a repressive Victorian undergarment to a provocative tool and pioneering the idea of underwear as outerwear. Palace’s Skewis added: “This collection is a true reflection of our shared values and influences, bringing together two distinct perspectives united by a common ground of independent thought, all with a uniquely London twist.”
