Vivienne Westwood’s final collection, shown Oct. 4, 2025, honored her legacy with chaotic, bold designs and a symbolic sunflower tribute.

Vivienne Westwood’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, presented at Paris Fashion Week on October 4, 2025, honored the late designer’s legacy through a theatrical, chaotic yet cohesive show led by Andreas Kronthaler. Held at the Institut de France, the presentation featured deconstructed silhouettes, clashing colors, and punk-inspired details like jeweled veils and a “CHAOS” necklace, set against a surreal backdrop of stained glass, an upside-down umbrella, and rotating sunflowers. The collection blended historical references with modern fabrics and second-skin undergarments, reflecting a bold evolution beyond nostalgia. Heidi Klum closed the show to applause, followed by Kronthaler’s symbolic gesture with a bouquet of sunflowers, underscoring the brand’s enduring romanticism. The event affirmed Westwood’s lasting influence in transforming disorder into compelling fashion.
