Vivienne Westwood Reading

Notes on the reading:
























Vivienne Westwood- 'The Orb'

 
My thoughts:
This proved the point to me that subject areas within the creative practices element are all very closely linked. The fact that Vivienne Westwood who is not only known as a major fashion designer icon, is in fact also well known for her graphics logo. After reading this piece it seems to me that Westwood is a woman who knows what she wants and what she is doing. She has not only managed to sell her fashion garments and bring herself a well known label within the fashion buisness but she has her own logo that everyone recognises like a 'signature'. The 'Orb' being her most successful logo has helped her get where she is today and given her more identity in the 'art world' showing a range of skills. This has also proved that a simple graphics logo can say alot, and give a whole meaning just from a symbol, letter, or image!
