Vivienne Westwood enlists six artists to interpret her AW18 collection

#ViviennesCreatives include Emma Breschi, Jesus Diaz, Joe Sweeney, Orla Carolin, Johan Zoo, and Josh Quinton

For years, Vivienne Westwood has tirelessly championed youth – remember her recent Dazed cover on which she posed with a group of young creatives? – and her AW18 collection is no different. 

To celebrate the collection, the designer has launched a new projected entitled #ViviennesCreatives, and enlisted six artists and activists to recreate the AW18 themes through their own mediums. With a new name being announced each day, the full list includes Emma Breschi, Jesus Diaz, Joe Sweeney, Orla Carolin, Johan Zoo, and Josh Quinton

The work created for the project sees Sweeney shopping in a comment on consumerism, while Breschi’s Kissing Booth explores the idea of how love is the only thing connecting us in the crazy post-Brexit, post-Trump world. #ViviennesCreatives will continue until October 14, with Carolin, Zoo, and Quinton still to present their ideas.
