Whether a skillfully rendered safety--pin brooch, a hand--strung \"broken\" pearl necklace, or the iconic Westwood orb in crystal, these are pieces that define the house's codes. The book centers on specially photographed vignettes, interspersed with catwalk shots and images of Westwood herself wearing her pieces to form a compendium that will inspire and inform any jewellery or fashion aficionado.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing an introduction by renowned fashion journalist Alexander Fury, which acquaints readers with the recurring motifs, techniques, and inspirations of the world of Vivienne Westwood jewellery, the book presents some two hundred pieces arranged by theme. From punk masterworks, such as the \"Hardcore Paperclip Earrings\" and \"Chaos Necklace,\" through the pastel--toned \"Flower Skull Necklace\" and \"Rubber Earrings,\" to the recycled-can \"Simone Earrings\" and the pagan \"Conkers Necklace,\" contemporary creations mingle with reimagined classics. A full range of jewellery is included: necklaces, pendants and chokers; earrings and nose rings; brooches, pins, badges, and medals; tiaras and coronets; bejeweled sunglasses; cuffs and bangles. Each piece is identified with its name, fashion season, and what is often an extraordinary range of materials. Through evocative still-life vignettes and close--ups, images of catwalk models, and stunning portraits of Vivienne Westwood, this glittering volume welcomes readers to a vibrant world that draws on the house's rich heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFury, Alexander:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eAlexander Fury\u003c\/strong\u003e is a fashion journalist, author, and critic.
