Sir Paul McCartney pays tribute to the 'ballsy' late Vivienne Westwood in passionate post
Paul McCartney, 80, paid tribute to the late fashion designer after she died aged just one year older than he is currently.The former Beatles bassist, who had publicly accompanied Dame Vivienne Westwood to his daughter Stella McCartney's show at Paris Fashion Week two years earlier, paid his respects in a Twitter message."Goodbye Vivienne Westwood," he lamented, describing her as "a ballsy lady who rocked the fashion world and stood defiantly for what was right".He signed off "Love Paul x" as he remembered the star in a tribute posted to his 4.2 million online followers.Vivienne's death was announced on December 29 via her official Twitter account, reassuring followers that she "died peacefully and surrounded by her family in Clapham, South London".The tweet added: "The world needs people like Vivienne to make a change for the better.”She had been regarded among many as the first person in the UK to bring her brand of provocative punk style to the world of high fashion - a combination which was unheard of at the time she first arrived on the scene.Vivienne and her lover Malcolm McLaren's London shop, Sex, became well-known around the world, while her attitude that "sex is fashion" gave birth to a series of now iconic bondage outfits synonymous with their names.Paul wasn't the only celebrity to make it clear how much of an impact the punk-aligning fashion icon had on their lives.Other tributes were led by the likes of Boy George, whom she once dressed, Chrissie Hynde and Naomi Campbell to name just a few.Cyndi Lauper wrote: "So sorry to hear that we lost @viviennewestwood today.She was a fashion icon, who not only created punk fashion but punk couture."She added of the longevity of Vivienne's ideas: "You can still see her

‘Wake Up Punk’ documentary: watch an exclusive clip featuring Vivienne Westwood
Wake Up Punk, NME can share an exclusive clip from the film – you can check it out above.Directed by Nigel Askew, the documentary charts the decline of punk through interviews with the fashion designer and her two sons Ben Westwood and Joe Corré.As featured at the end of the film, Corré, who is the son of Westwood and the former Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren, publicly burned an estimated £5million worth of punk memorabilia in 2016 to protest the genre’s commodification.The protest, which drew criticism at the time, coincided with the 40th anniversary of the UK release of Sex Pistols track ‘Anarchy In The UK’.A synopsis for Wake Up Punk reads: “With a fusion of documentary and magical realism, the film captures the intimate moments between Vivienne and her two sons Ben and Joe as they candidly discuss their own relationship with Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren and stories from the punk era.”In the exclusive clip, Ben Westwood, the son of Vivienne and Derek Westwood, discusses his relationship with his mother during his school days at the height of punk.“You never came to my school parents meetings at all,” Westwood said. “You didn’t offer and I definitely didn’t want you to come either.”Speaking at a premiere screening of Wake Up Punk last night (May 5) in London, Vivienne Westwood said the film was designed to bring attention to climate change.
