The Word 'Fashion' Tends to Mean Something that's Not Very Attractive or Glamorous


 81 Years Ago Today

Tuesday 8th of April 1941
Fashion designer Vivienne Westwood is born as Vivienne Isabel Swire in Tintwistle, Derbyshire, United Kingdom.
On September 10, 1931, Vivienne Swire becomes the first woman to run a fashion company. Vivienne Westwood is the only person ever to win the Guinness Book of World Records. Vivienne Westwood began fashioning after working on behalf of the late actress and beauty queen Elizabeth Cohan, who would become an icon. Vivienne Westwood had written one of the greatest works of her career, a series of short novels describing how her short life as a child made her an iconic figure in pop culture. Vivienne Westwood was a fashion-model for almost 90 years and won numerous awards. Since her retirement from fashion, Vivienne Westwood has appeared on numerous top-rated television projects such as "Parks & Recreation," "A Very Special Day for the Arts," "Blindspot," and her best selling memoir "My Beautiful Valentine." A personal favorite of hers is her 1988 song "Fashion" which features a version of "Fashion Girl" written by Vivienne Swire. "Fashion, however, is not a glamorous word, that's because it means a different thing in a lot of ways than what you would imagine from a picture-perfect fashion model. The word 'fashion' tends to mean something that's not very attractive or glamorous."
