There’s good news for American fans of Vivienne Westwood: the house has announced the opening of its first flagship boutique in New York.
The new location, set to open in the fall, will offer the brand’s ready-to-wear lines Gold Label, Red Label, Anglomania and MAN, as well as all accessory lines, alongside a bridal and Gold Label Capsule collection eveningwear salon dedicated to showcasing and fitting demi-couture gowns.
The space will stock a special selection of original Worlds End collection pieces, otherwise only available from Westwood’s London boutique.
Spanning six stories of a French Beaux-Arts building, Vivienne Westwood New York will be the brand’s largest retail location to date. Located in the heart of Manhattan on East 55th Street, the pre-war townhouse will feature a new design concept combining modern and classic elements with Vivienne Westwood’s unique British style. New York will mark Westwood’s third retail location in the US, following Los Angeles and Honolulu.
Long considered a symbol of the British avant-garde, Vivienne Westwood is one of the last independent global fashion companies in the world.
