From June 7 to October 12<\/strong>, MUDE \u2013 Museum of Design<\/strong><\/a>, in Lisbon, presents \u201cVivienne Westwood: O Salto da Tigresa (The Tigress\u2019s Leap)\u201d<\/strong>, a tribute to the iconic British fashion designer who revolutionised contemporary fashion.<\/p>\n

Curated by fashion historian and researcher Anabela Becho, the exhibition draws on the concept of the \u201cTiger\u2019s Leap\u201d by German philosopher Walter Benjamin to explore how Vivienne Westwood (1941\u20132022) looked to the past to reinvent the present and affirm her aesthetic and political identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cVivienne Westwood: O Salto da Tigresa\u201d brings together around 50 pieces \u2013 including garments, accessories, illustrations, photographs and books \u2013 from the Francisco Capelo Collection, part of MUDE\u2019s holdings, as well as from institutional and private collections. The selection spans from the 18th century to the early 21st century, highlighting Westwood\u2019s relationship with tradition and her distinctive approach to fashion history.<\/p>\n

The exhibition reveals key aspects of Westwood\u2019s thought and creative practice: her subversive use of iconic British cultural elements such as tartan and tweed; her reinterpretation of traditional tailoring and historical garments like the crinoline, bustle (or tournure) and corset; her masterful construction techniques; and her fascination with history \u2013 even during the punk years, when she and Malcolm McLaren pioneered a raw, irreverent form of street fashion.<\/p>\n

The exhibition also highlights Westwood\u2019s activism. Over several decades, she used her fashion shows as platforms for political and environmental engagement. A fierce critic of fast fashion, she was a vocal campaigner against climate change and founder of the Climate Revolution movement.<\/p>\n

From the rebellious spirit of her King\u2019s Road shop in London to the international catwalks, Vivienne Westwood\u2019s aesthetic was always shaped by non-conformity. A punk icon, she created one of the Sex Pistols\u2019 most provocative T-shirts, depicting Queen Elizabeth II with a safety pin through her lips or with the words \u201cGod Save the Queen\u201d obscuring her eyes and mouth. Even so, she was honoured by the monarch herself: in 1992 with the Order of the British Empire for her contributions to fashion and the arts, and in 2006 with the title of Dame.<\/p>\n

\u201cVivienne Westwood: O Salto da Tigresa\u201d offers a multifaceted portrait of one of the most influential figures in 20th-century fashion, celebrating the legacy of a designer who made rebellion, culture and craftsmanship the cornerstones of her singular voice.<\/p>\n
