"Ms. Westwood said last summer during an interview about her career: “When I became a fashion designer, I was helping Malcolm do something — which eventually turned into punk. I was interested in helping him attack the establishment.”
And their son, Joe Corre, who founded Agent Provocateur, told me, describing the McLaren-Westwood household, which also included his half-brother Ben, “We were brought up with the idea of being independent and making up your own mind.”
Today, of course, outrage is a readily traded commodity — nobody really gets fussed when a model prances down the runway in a pair of rubber fetish pants. We don’t see the point anymore. And how many fashion brands would dare to change the look of their stores every few years?
Maybe that’s why Mr. McLaren never limited himself to fashion."
