Vivienne Westwood Lady Wedding Dress

Vivienne Westwood

Vivienne Westwood began designing in 1971 along with her then partner Malcolm McLaren in London. At the time they used their shop at 430 Kings Road, London, to showcase their ideas and designs. With their changing ideas of fashion came the change of not only the name of the shop but also the décor. It was in 1976 when Westwood and McLaren defined the street culture of Punk with Seditionaries.

By the end of the seventies Vivienne Westwood was already considered a symbol of the British avant-garde and for Autumn/Winter 1981 she showed her first catwalk presentation at Olympia in London. Westwood then turned to traditional Savile Row tailoring techniques, using British fabrics and 17th and 18th century art for inspiration.

1989 was the year that Vivienne met Andreas Kronthaler, who would later become her husband and long-time design partner, as well as Creative Director of the brand. In 2004 the Victoria & Albert museum, London, hosted a Vivienne Westwood retrospective exhibition to celebrate her then 34 years in fashion – the largest exhibition ever devoted to a living British fashion designer. In 2006, her contribution to British Fashion was officially recognised when she was appointed Dame of the British Empire by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and in 2007 was awarded the ‘Outstanding Achievement in Fashion’ at the British Fashion Awards in London.

Vivienne Westwood is one of the last independent global fashion companies in the world. At times thought provoking, this brand is about more than producing clothes and accessories. Westwood continues to capture the imagination, and raise awareness of environmental and human rights issues. With a design record spanning over forty years, Vivienne Westwood is now recognized as a global brand and Westwood herself as one of the most influential fashion designers, and activists, in the world today.

Vivienne Westwood prices range from £3,100 – £12,200

    Inspired by the Court dress of the Spring-Summer 2012 collection, ‘War and Peace’, renowned for its exaggerated, armour-like corset, the Lady gown draws from the grandeur of the Second French Empire. The elongated silhouette and tightly cinched basque waistline celebrate couture craftsmanship, highlighting impeccable proportions and exquisite detailing. The off-shoulder neckline is delicately gathered using the Westwood ‘bubble’ pattern technique, while V-shaped yokes define the waist. The skirt unfolds in a sumptuous cascade of fabric, marrying sculptural drama with refined, romantic elegance.

  • Vivienne Westwood Darling Wedding Dress

    Price available on request

    The Darling dress weaves together influences from the Marie Antoinette gown of the 2021 Bridal Couture collection, and the Chichi dress from the Spring-Summer 2025 collection. Crafted for the modern bride, its silhouette is rich in intricate construction. A twisted drape graces the bust, forming a soft sweetheart neckline, while a dropped waist corset gently sculpts the hourglass figure. The multi-layered tulle skirt floats like a delicate cloud, both ethereal and light. Offered in tulle layered over fine Chantilly lace or in the Presence of Blooms printed tulle, the gown evokes the romance of a secret garden in full bloom.

Embodying the unmistakable DNA of the house, the Maverick is a statement of modern elegance and craftmanship. This design is offered in three fabric variations, each enhancing its sculptural effect.

  • Vivienne Westwood Joy Mini Wedding Dress

    Price available on request

    The Joy mini dress offers a playful iteration of the Victoria ballgown, from our 2025 Made to Order collection, which itself draws inspiration from the iconic Cloud dress — first seen in the Vivienne Westwood Gold Label Autumn-Winter 2007/08, ‘Wake Up Cave Girl’ show, and later immortalised in 2008 as Carrie Bradshaw’s wedding dress in Sex and the City. The Joy gown features a delicately draped corset with a defined waist, from which a voluminous mini skirt emerges. Crafted using the signature Vivienne Westwood diamond pattern-cutting technique, the skirt is built from diamond-shaped panels and enhanced with precise top-stitching, celebrating both structure and sculptural beauty, with contemporary flair.

  • Vivienne Westwood Mabel Wedding Dress

The style marries elements of the popular Nova Cocotte and Cora Cocotte gowns, with the bodice echoing the neckline shape of both styles. The gown features a delicately draped skirt, complete with a cascading train, lending the style an air of opulence. The design is finished with a sultry side-slit, creating an elongated figure. The Mabel is offered in a pearl white heavy silk satin, or in an opaline silk cady.

The layering of drapes in the upper part of the gown flows into a delicately bias-cut circle skirt revealing a side slit, remaining faithful to Vivienne’s approach of celebrating femininity.
