Vivienne Westwood: Designer in Focus

Tucked into the Walker's Craft & Design Gallery, this display traces Vivienne Westwood's journey from punk-era collaborations with Malcolm McLaren through to her status as a genuine British fashion icon — rare pieces you won't see on a mannequin anywhere else in the North West.

It's a free, one-room display rather than a blockbuster show, so it slots easily alongside the Walker's permanent collection — worth timing your visit before it closes in mid-October.
