Fashion Yet Another Fashion Biopic: Vivienne Westwood

Posted by Marjorie Skinner on Thu, May 31 at 4:27 PM

Joining the handful of Coco Chanel films in the works, wherein she is to be played by Marina Hands and the ubiquitous Audrey Tautou, now Vivienne Westwood’s punk-spattered rise to fashion fame is set to hit Hollywood. But the big question is who should play her? At a party celebrating the designer’s retrospective at San Francisco’s De Young Museum, a couple idle revelers suggested Jodie Foster, who I hate to an admittedly uncalled-for extent (But jeeezus, did you see Nell? Hate.). Who would you want to see play the woman who married Malcolm McLaren, opened a store called Sex, and taught punk rockers how to dress?

Biopic? When in doubt, Cate Blanchett.

the woman in that photo looks similar to the lorna doom character played by bijiou phillips in the film what we do is secret. i don't know if she could pull off the acting, but she can pull off the look indeed.

below is a link for some photos of bijiou as lorna
