Throughout, we notice omnipresent themes. Sex is a frequent reference, particularly when translated into the embellished cuffs and padlocks synonymous with BDSM. Activism, too, is key, with political slogans and recycled materials an enduring favourite for Westwood, while punk, safety pins and badges will always remain a hallmark of Westwood\u2019s style.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"0315f49a-623d-46ec-8791-6fc8b04ecb29\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:792px\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:125.00%\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Vivienne Westwood jewellery\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/oXbv38mQNZpRdirpC9KNVh.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/oXbv38mQNZpRdirpC9KNVh.jpg\" \/>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: \u00a9 Philippe Lacombe)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"c0250d64-5aca-4373-93cb-6aa59038eb76\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:792px\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:110.61%\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"jewellery with bows and ymbols\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/amKzgxtmpbLAV7ifVDnaUh.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/amKzgxtmpbLAV7ifVDnaUh.jpg\" \/>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: \u00a9 Philippe Lacombe)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"5f245ec0-9842-410b-aed5-8fa996e2caa0\">\u2018Jewellery is powerful, and it can be loaded with meaning,\u2019 adds Andreas Kronthaler, creative director, Vivienne Westwood. \u2018It marks life, and it gives importance to it.
