Description |
Take a walk on the wild side as high heels, billowing gowns and Handel collide in spectacular fashion. Vivienne Westwood's outrageous costumes find a dramatic outlet in this bold take on Handel's Semele. The heroine is the prototype of 20th century punk. Her descent into madness is brought to life on a gleaming white runway adorned with pouting models in gold boots, silk crinolines and extravagant earrings. |
