Viv's clear out

One of the world's most inventive and copied designers, Vivienne Westwood, is auctioning off a sizeable chunk of her wardrobe. Christie's annual Street Style auction features a decade's worth of Westwood pieces from some of her most successful collections. The 55 lots are expected to fetch in excess of £20,000 (individual estimates range from £200 to £650) and include a 1985 outfit of polka dot mini crini, Union Jack gypsy blouse and white wedges. For those after a combo of Westwood and supermodel memorabilia, the boucle poodle knitted outfit was modelled by Eva Herzigova and the Anglomania collection 'gym slip' by Christy Turlington.
