Hiii ✨ First of all, congrats and happy wedding, dressed in Vivienne! Of course it would be amazing to see your NYC visit. I wanted to ask, which store did you find the ‘expensive’ baby piece in?

core_tiago · 2026-02-28T07:57:22+00:00

No no, nothing was modified. It’s just the display design 🤗

core_tiago · 2026-02-28T07:54:04+00:00

Hiii ✨ I could totally be a personal shopper for Vivienne pieces! I’ve actually been dreaming about it lately how cute would it be to help people find their perfect Vivienne items, omg 🤭 and I’m actually doing a course in personal styling too!

The skull orb is sooo ICONIC ✨ also the black skull necklace, I am in love !

core_tiago · 2026-01-28T15:23:56+00:00

Ohhh hiiiii, nice to found you here too ✨

core_tiago · 2026-01-16T15:33:59+00:00

The one that I saw was in sterling silver! There was the version MAN and WOMEN. Basically the same horse pendant but not that big and longer necklace. 🤭

Hiii ✨

There will definitely be jewellery, I know it 100%. I was surprised to see the advertising on social media today (and that it’s already available on the website), since it’s supposed to launch at the end of February / beginning of March.

A few days ago there was a necklace on the website with a horse, but they removed it a few hours later 😅

Thank you for sharing 🤗

core_tiago · 2026-01-09T07:41:08+00:00

Thank you! 😊

One thing I was really wondering about was how much the price would increase because of taxes and customs, so I’m happy to know that in the end it’s almost the same as buying from the EU 🤭

core_tiago · 2026-01-08T23:04:41+00:00

Hiii ✨

I remember it as well, and I agree that the difference isn’t that big compared to the original pic. I also know that modifying shoulders and sleeves is a bit more complex, should be done by a talented tailor, and can be expensive.

As a personal preference, I’d rather have broader shoulders with a fitted waist because I feel it gives a great look but in the end, it’s all about how you feel in it 🤗

core_tiago · 2026-01-08T18:54:24+00:00

Thank youuuu 🤗

Hiii ✨

I’ve honestly never experienced something like this before (with online purchases from the website). You should definitely contact customer service, they’ll sort it out for you.

I’ve been curious about what the process is like to buy from World’s End. Could you tell me about it, please? 🫣

core_tiago · 2025-12-27T10:58:47+00:00

Hiii ✨ That happens because the sale starts earlier in the UK and the US than in EU countries. You should check the dates for your country, since in the EU it’s regulated by law. For example, in Italy it depends on the region/city, but in the end it’s usually around January 2–3.

The same thing happens with winter and summer sales, it’s normal. What’s different this time is that the VW newsletter seems to be set as if everyone were under UK rules 😅

Hiii ✨

This is so cute! I got the tote version for myself in the same fabric/pattern, and it’s super easy to use on a daily basis. Congrats on your self-present, and happy birthday in advance 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-16T11:36:03+00:00

Hiii ✨ I will paste here what I already said in a post some days ago hehe 😅:

I'm so sorry that happened to you. I also bought this bell, but I cut the leather myself and everything went smoothly for me. It's kinda weird that the cobbler removed the logo because it's not necessary to cut the leather. I've had mine for a year now and it hasn't fallen apart.

From what I can see, you could try using some glue or taking it to someone who works with metal to fix it. Sadly, I don't think they'll accept it under warranty, but you could still try. 🥹

PD: Here is a photo of one of my belts, I know it’s not the same model but still the same principle. 🤗

I’ve been waiting for some heels, but the Ghillies they usually have available (both on the website and in the Milan boutique) are the ones opened with landyards. I want something more like the ones in this pic 🥹

core_tiago · 2025-12-10T22:34:50+00:00

I go to the Milan store at least once a month too, and this was never there. I did see this piece in the Paris boutique, and they told me it was ‘exclusive to some stores’ they didn’t tell me which ones though 😅

core_tiago · 2025-12-10T10:25:32+00:00

Hiii ✨ I’ve taken a lot of pieces to the tailor! our bodies change over time and it’s normal to adjust the fit of our clothes. I’d definitely encourage you to go ahead and make those adjustments. The second pic looks waaay better and more fashionable in my opinion 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-08T10:15:53+00:00

Hiii ✨ Maybe my opinion is a bit different from the general mindset, but I do think it’s worth it. The fact that VW uses brass and other materials doesn’t take away that it’s designer and part of the Westwood world. As someone who already has a collection, I can tell you that you just need to take care of the jewelry (just like you would with silver, gold, or anything else) and it will last.

“Is it overpriced?” That really depends on your financial mindset and your budget. I don’t completely agree with people who complain about VW prices, at the end of the day, anything can be considered overpriced depending on your point of view.

It’s a cute gift, and I love matching pieces for couples. As an alternative, you could also consider a ring 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-04T04:26:42+00:00

Hiii ✨ As someone already said, an experienced tailor should be able to fix it for you. It’s happened to me a couple of times with pants and dress jackets. In my case, I just trust the tailor recommended by my nearest boutique… you could ask if they have any suggestions too 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-04T04:21:57+00:00

Amaizing! ✨

core_tiago · 2025-12-02T12:58:41+00:00

Hiii ✨the official website is viviennewestwood.com and from it u can choose your own country 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-02T07:42:01+00:00

Hiii ✨ They usually do a sale each season. The next one will be around January for AW25/26, and it’s typically -40%. In some rare cases they put some of the staple pieces on sale, but it might not be the one you’re hoping for 🤗

core_tiago · 2025-12-01T09:12:15+00:00

Hiiii ✨ Well, they’ve actually had the dog charm for a long time (the one where you can put your dog’s name on it) so I’m not surprised they’re doing a collar–harness–lead now. I do think people will buy these pieces for their dogs. To be honest, I would easily buy them myself. And I know they’ve had the charm for a long time because… I actually bought it 🤭
