Airs
& Graces
Vivienne's new collection expresses the duality of
women. Feminine romance and the power of androgyny.
"That woman… is a success who loves life, and lives
it to its fullest; who has discovered and shared the
strengths and talents that are uniquely her own, who
puts her best into each task and leaves each situation
better than she found it; who seeks and finds that
which is beautiful in people and all things; who's
heart is full of love and warm with compassion; who
has found the joy of living and peace within herself."
Spread her wings
Based in New York City, Vivienne grew up in London
and subsequently opted to 'spread her wings' to the
United States. She has been honored with numerous
awards, including the much coveted North American

Choice Awards (three times).
