{"title":"Vivienne Westwood","description":"\u003csection\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eVivienne Westwood: the British punk label turned luxury house\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood\u003c\/strong\u003e is the British fashion house founded in London in 1971 by the designer of the same name, and in fifty years it has become the bridge between punk counter-culture and contemporary luxury. At MTHOR, the \u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood\u003c\/strong\u003e collection brings together the most sought-after pieces from the orb label: leather \u003cstrong\u003ebags\u003c\/strong\u003e, leather goods and streetwear collaborations, selected one by one and then authenticated by our team of experts before shipping. Every reference is a model that is genuinely available, not a phantom pre-order: what you see is in stock, checked and ready to ship. That standard is what sets a \u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood bag\u003c\/strong\u003e bought at MTHOR apart from a piece found on an unvetted marketplace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eThe history of Vivienne Westwood, from King's Road to haute couture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eVivienne Westwood, born Vivienne Isabel Swire in 1941 in Tintwistle, Derbyshire, opened a boutique at \u003cstrong\u003e430 King's Road\u003c\/strong\u003e in London in 1971 with Malcolm McLaren. The address changed name five times in ten years — Let It Rock in 1971, SEX in 1974, Seditionaries in 1976, then Worlds End in 1980 — and each new sign came with an aesthetic shift. It was from this shop that Westwood dressed the Sex Pistols, managed by McLaren, and invented the London punk wardrobe: torn T-shirts, safety pins, bondage trousers, printed slogans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe move from street clothing to fashion came in 1981 with the \u003cem\u003ePirate\u003c\/em\u003e show, the designer's first runway collection, which traded head-on provocation for a historical reading of costume. The collections that followed established her vocabulary: corsets reinterpreted from eighteenth-century portraits, Scottish tartans, subverted English tailoring. Appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1992 and made Dame Commander in 2006, Vivienne Westwood pursued an outspoken climate and political activism until her death on 29 December 2022. The house, now led by her husband and long-time collaborator Andreas Kronthaler, keeps that twin legacy alive — subversion and craftsmanship — which explains the lasting resale value of pieces from the \u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood brand\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eThe Vivienne Westwood orb: what does the crowned globe logo mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood orb\u003c\/strong\u003e is a globe topped with a cross and encircled by a Saturn-like ring, drawn in 1987 and since become the most instantly recognisable \u003cstrong\u003elogo\u003c\/strong\u003e in British fashion. Its \u003cstrong\u003emeaning\u003c\/strong\u003e is explicit: the orb is borrowed from the British royal regalia — the cross-bearing globe of the coronation, a symbol of tradition and authority — while the ring of Saturn around it projects that heritage into the future. The message fits into a single image: carrying the past towards tomorrow, exactly the designer's aesthetic programme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn practice, the orb is the first authenticity marker on a piece. On leather goods it is \u003cstrong\u003eengraved or embossed on the hardware\u003c\/strong\u003e (clasps, buckles, zip pulls) and stamped on the inner plate or label; on ready-to-wear it is embroidered or printed, alongside the composition label and the product code. The sharpness of the relief, the evenness of the ring and the depth of the engraving are three of the points our team checks as a matter of course: a counterfeit almost always gives itself away on the orb before anywhere else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eThe signature pieces of the Vivienne Westwood house\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe house's historic catalogue is built around a handful of icons recognisable at first glance. In \u003cstrong\u003ejewellery\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cem\u003eOrb necklace\u003c\/em\u003e — the orb pendant on a chain or on a pearl necklace — and the \u003cem\u003eArmour Ring\u003c\/em\u003e, an articulated ring inspired by an armour gauntlet, are the two most copied pieces of the brand. In \u003cstrong\u003eleather goods\u003c\/strong\u003e, compact crossbody bags stamped with the orb form the core of the offer, with lines such as the \u003cstrong\u003eNew Heart\u003c\/strong\u003e, whose asymmetric heart silhouette has become a signature of the house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cstrong\u003eready-to-wear\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Westwood corset, the tartans and the slogan T-shirts remain the house's markers, regularly brought back into circulation through streetwear collaborations. The tie-up with London label \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/palace\"\u003ePalace\u003c\/a\u003e is the most recent example: the Palace x Vivienne Westwood T-shirt, released on 6 September 2024 for the FW24 season, sets the Palace logo alongside the orb on a black crew-neck jersey, available from S to XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe MTHOR selection focuses on what the resale market genuinely makes available and verifiable: \u003cstrong\u003eleather bags\u003c\/strong\u003e and streetwear pieces from collaborations. The \u003cstrong\u003eVivienne Westwood New Heart Crossbody in black\u003c\/strong\u003e leather, reference 58010001W-L001N N402, is offered at 790 €, and the Palace x Vivienne Westwood T-shirt from 150 € depending on size.

The orb, the Armour Ring and the pearl necklace with its orb pendant are full narrative devices there: they signal the character's place in the Tokyo punk-rock scene and have become, by extension, objects of desire for a whole generation of readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThat cultural link carried on through official editions and collaborations between the house and the \u003cstrong\u003eNANA\u003c\/strong\u003e universe, which are now in sustained demand on the second-hand market.
