The reason for the death of Vivienne Westwood has not been disclosed. No one mentioned the reason for her passing in their statements. It appears that she passed away due to natural causes. 

At age 81, Vivienne Westwood, a legendary British fashion designer who rose to fame in the 1970s with her iconoclastic aesthetic, passed away on Thursday. 

In Clapham, South London, the godmother of punk passed away “peacefully and surrounded by her family,” according to a statement made public by her name-brand corporation.

Andreas Kronthaler, her husband and co-creator, asserted that she had continued to work till the end. He said “I will continue with Vivienne in my heart. We have been working until the end and she has given me plenty of things to get on with,” he said, “Thank you, darling.”

The following quote from the late legend was included in the official announcement from her company.“Tao spiritual system. There was never more need for the Tao today.“

“Tao gives you a feeling that you belong to the cosmos and gives purpose to your life; it gives you such a sense of identity and strength to know you’re living the life you can live and therefore ought to be living: make full use of your character and full use of your life on earth. The world needs people like Vivienne to make a change for the better,” the post added.

The creative fashion designer gained notoriety in the 1970s fashion world thanks to her androgynous designs, slogan t-shirts, and rebellious demeanor against the status quo. 

She is recognized for playing a significant role in popularising modern punk and new-wave clothes.

She popularised new wave and punk fashion and was awarded the honorary title of “Dame” in 2006 for her contributions to fashion.

In addition, Westwood supported countless campaigns, causes, neighborhood charities, and NGOs, bringing her activism to the catwalk.

In 2012, she started her own Climate Revolution. She served as a Greenpeace ambassador and designed the organization’s official “Save The Arctic” emblem in 2013.

In 1990, 1991, and 2006, Dame Westwood took home the British designer of the year award three times.
