Vivienne Westwood, the iconic British fashion house, recently showcased its Spring/Summer 2025 collection, reaffirming its status as a beacon of avant-garde design and rebellious spirit. The show, held at the Gateway of India in Mumbai, marked the brand’s first-ever runway presentation in India, a significant step in celebrating the country’s rich textile heritage.
A Fusion of Punk and Indian Textiles
The collection beautifully blended Westwood’s signature punk-chic aesthetic with the vibrant colors and intricate craftsmanship of Indian textiles. Models strutted down the runway in ensembles featuring handwoven silks, Khadi cotton, and wool sourced from esteemed Indian textile houses. The designs ranged from whimsical and romantic to edgy and bold, staying true to Westwood’s unconventional style.
Star-Studded Event
The front row was graced by a host of Bollywood celebrities, including Kareena Kapoor Khan, who looked stunning in a red off-shoulder gown, and Janhvi Kapoor, who exuded diva vibes in an embellished corset top and satin skirt. Other notable attendees included Aditya Roy Kapur, Mira Rajput, and Twinkle Khanna, all dressed to the nines in their unique styles.
Kareena Kapoor Khan, known for her impeccable fashion sense, turned heads in a stunning red off-shoulder gown. The figure-hugging corset bodice and thigh-high slit accentuated her curves.
Janhvi Kapoor channeled her inner diva in a dazzling ensemble featuring an embellished corset top paired with a satin thigh-high slit skirt. Her silver heels and a statement diamond necklace completed the look, making her a red-carpet stunner.
Shahid Kapoor’s wife, Mira Rajput Kapoor, opted for a more subtle yet elegant look. She looked breathtaking in a peach off-shoulder dress, accessorizing with a black clutch and heels.
Twinkle Khanna, known for her quirky style, made a statement in a rust top under a beige blazer, paired with maroon pants. Her unique bag added a touch of personality to her ensemble.

A Tribute to Vivienne Westwood’s Legacy
The show was not just a display of the latest collection but also a tribute to the late Vivienne Westwood, the legendary designer who passed away in 2022. Her revolutionary spirit and fearless approach to fashion continue to inspire the brand’s creative direction, now led by her husband, Andreas Kronthaler. The collection paid homage to Westwood’s iconic designs, featuring corsets, tartan prints, and statement jewelry, all while incorporating a contemporary twist.
