The collaborative experience reflects the late designer's unmatched artistry.&nbsp;

This year, we f&ecirc;te the 50th anniversary of the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/vivienne-westwood-sex-pistols-punk-fashion-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">punk scene</a>. For followers of the movement around the world, this means revisiting favorite albums from the music industry's most memorable, but for fashion fans, the celebration looks a little different.&nbsp;As any pop culture or style savant knows, one of the artists most closely linked to the scene was fashion designer <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/vivienne-westwood-spring-summer-2026-runway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vivienne Westwood</a>. Between her wholehearted commitment to the sociopolitical causes she believed in, her unparalleled artistic genius, and the attention she commanded in the British fashion scene, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/fashion-designer-vivienne-westwood-dead-at-81" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Westwood</a> has long been regarded as one of the most influential cultural figures of all time.&nbsp;
Paying homage to the legendary designer and the punk scene's monumental anniversary this year, Vivienne Westwood: An Active Life has come to the Light House, an institution in London's Soho neighborhood. Organized by Westwood's granddaughter and son, Cora Corr&eacute; and Joseph Corr&eacute;, in partnership with Ki Price and Steven Philip&mdash;renowned celebrity photographer and lifelong Vivienne Westwood collector, respectively&mdash;the exhibition shines a light on several rarely covered aspects of Westwood's life.&nbsp;

The exhibition brings together a collection of exquisitely dressed mannequins sporting museum archive looks, over 100 unique shoppable vintage pieces curated by Philip, and a range of rare and previously unseen images shot by Price.
The legendary photographer's work will be available as limited-edition prints. 50 percent of all proceeds will benefit The Vivienne Foundation&mdash;the late designer's not-for-profit organization, which works to combat&nbsp;climate change, stop war, defend human rights, and protest capitalism.

Beyond offering Westwood devotees a precious opportunity to dive into the artist-activist's extensive legacy through unique archival items, it also aims to introduce the uninitiated to her mission of frank self-expression, unapologetically bold style, and a deep commitment to her values as the '<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/vivienne-westwood-interview-punk-fashion-climate-change" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen of Punk</a>.'&nbsp;

Vivienne Westwood: An Active Life runs at the <a href="https://www.lighthousesoho.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Light House</a> through March 19.&nbsp;
