A rare gem - the Vivienne Westwood vintage limited edition Wallace Museum long-form wallet. A truly precious find with recently renewed enamel, making it a stunning and unique addition to any fashion connoisseur's collection. Vivienne Westwood -- From bringing British punk fashion into the mainstream in the 1970s to her political activism and climate action, Vivienne Westwood’s legacy is set to be influential for many generations to come. The different fashion movements that characterised her career can be clearly divided between 4 different periods: the Punk era in the 70s, the Pagan years in the 80s, Anglomania in the 90s, and the era of social and political activism from the 2000s up to the present day. This vintage piece is from a chapter in fashion rarely found in New Zealand, and adds a quintessentially British flair to any ensemble.

Open to reasonable offers. Free meet-up / pick up welcome. Original tags/box included at asking price on request. The Anglomania show that Westwood and Malcolm McLaren – leader of “The Sex Pistols” band, worked on together is, perhaps, one of the most iconic shows of that time. Naomi Campbell fell during the show as she was wearing very high heels – a picture that makes the show truly unforgettable.
