"I think feminists are unaware of the tremendous extent of the role of women in history."
The Shoes That Toppled Naomi
Once upon a time, right in the middle of walking the catwalk during a Vivienne Westwood fashion show, model Naomi Campbell fell right off her fabulous Westwood shoes. In other words, she tripped.These are those famous shoes. I secretly took a picture of them when they were on display at the SF MOMA show in 2007. They are a beautiful royal blue alligator texture with massive platforms.

I'm very proud to own a genuine Westwood t-shirt! My mother brought it back for me from a trip she took to London and made me absolutely swear never to ask her how much it cost...

- I'm an old Sex Pistols fan, so I was familiar with Vivienne Westwood through that. You've done a great job explaining her to newcomers! 5 stars!
