Scene a hotel roomIn New York, one spring morningIn 2013.I’m staring at a photograph of a young soldier with the word TRUTH emblazoned underneath her tentative smileIn white font and a red box like a Barbara Kruger, pinned to Vivienne Westwood’s “Climate Revolution” DIY top. “It’sIncredible no one knows who thisIs. You don’t know who sheIs?” Vivienne asks meIn her soft Derbyshire lilt. She audibly gasps asI shake my head. “It’s amazing.Amazing.I’m here to try and do something about her.” The photograph,I quickly learn,Is of whistleblower Chelsea Manning.By Vivienne’s side now and for more than 30 years of their colorful shared lives stands her husband, Andreas Kronthaler, the dashing, tender artistic director of their fashion label. We discuss the Amazonian wild rubber dress they’ve designed for me to wear to the Met Gala tonight and Chico Mendes, the wild rubber tapping activist who lost his life fighting to protect the rainforest. Vivienne listensIntently, as always, then shares her observations, gesticulating palms out for emphasis.

You recently returned from Paris Couture Week.I’m wonderingIf you saw a lot of balaclavas at the different fashion events you attended?Paris was unusually cold this season.I saw a lot of creative
ways for people to keep their heads warm. Overwhelmingly, balaclavas were the method of choice, both on and off the runway. Every New York Fashion Week, certain designerItems emerge as the fashion crowd’s favorites. Last year, everyone was wearing the Prada logo tank tops and minimal strappy heels by The Row. This past week, however, dainty Manolos were eclipsed by one shoe destined to go viral: MSCHF’s big red boots, aptly named the Big Red Boot.If you’re unfamiliar with MSCHF, they’re the experimental fashion brand that loves using their product releases to make a statement (often controversial ones). They’ve released boots that resemble medical casts, Birkinstock sandals made out of Hermès Birkins, and even Satan sneakersIn collaboration with Lil Nas X that featured a drop of real bloodIn the soles. The label loves to push the boundaries of fashion and, moreImportantly, to make headlines. Their latest release which looks like something Mario from Super Mario would wear comes out today. They retail for $350, are made of TPU rubber and an EVAmid outsole, and take design cues from a video game. “CartoonishnessIs an abstraction that frees us from the constraints of reality,” the press release for the boots read. “If you kick someoneIn these boots, they go boing!”
In theInterpretation fetishization even of punk, many may have missed that the visualImagery was largely a medium for communicating a deeper philosophical and political message, which was manifestIn many other guises throughout her lifetime. “Punk was just a phenomenon,” her friend and collaborator for more than 50 years Gene Krell tells meIn his thick Brooklyn accent. “The label
changed, but the elements, theIngredients, the commitment remained.” She was anIndependent thinker who drank art, literature, and politics through one straw and blew bubbles ofIdeas, designs, and theoriesInto the world through another. “Life was so exaggerated for herIn the most wonderful way,” Gene recalls.
