Vivienne Westwood 2026 Bridal Runway Show

'We looked again to our rose print, inspired by the watercolours of 18th century botanist Pierre Joseph Redouté. We added orange blossom from the courtyard of the university, a symbol of purity and beauty; subdued and layered with tulle – tender, romantic. Rich jacquard in ‘Absence of roses’ – classical. There is linen and cotton, washed georgette and chiffon, to make things look as if they have been worn time and again. The lightest organza, lots of lace, and pale pink duchesse from Italy. Each character tells a story. Simonetta (Gianfelici) wears the Madame de Pompadour gown, inspired by the François Boucher painting (1756), this time in white. Vivienne would have loved it' – it was her favourite dress of all time’ – Andreas Kronthaler The Vivienne Westwood 2026 Bridal Runway show.
