Vivienne Westwood set to merge menswear and womenswear lines in London

August 22, 2016 By publisher

Vivienne Westwood has announced plans to fuse her womenswear and menswear lines under a single label. The grande dame of British fashion has announced she will present her Autumn/Winter 2017/18 collection in one show in January 2017, as part of London Fashion Week Men's. The move effectively puts an end to the practice of showing her womenswear line, formally known as the 'Red Label', and her menswear line, formally known as the 'MAN Label', separately, in London and Milan respectively. The two lines will now sit together under the name 'Vivienne Westwood'.
