The label is renowned for its ‘Drunken’ tailoring, a signature technique in which seams and lapels are deliberately twisted off-kilter, giving a jacket movement and character you will not find anywhere else. Alongside it sit heritage checks, tartan, pinstripe and gingham, plus sculptural details like ruched sleeves and asymmetric hems that keep the tailoring anything but conventional. It is this blend of technical mastery and mischief that has made Westwood jackets a favourite among collectors and fashion insiders alike.

Our edit brings together the season’s key styles. The sharply cut Aperitive jacket in graphite and the Check Appetizer blazer in brown offer statement tailoring, while the structured Kendall blazer in gingham grey and the Cloud Pinstripe jacket bring polished, print-led options. For something with more edge, the Drunken Asymmetric jacket and the Ruched Sleeve crop jacket in black showcase the house’s flair for the unexpected.

Cut from beautiful fabrics with impeccable construction, each jacket is built to elevate everything around it. Wear one over a corset top and tailored trousers for full Westwood impact, or throw it over denim and a knit to bring a directional edge to the everyday.

Investment tailoring with unmistakable personality, a Vivienne Westwood jacket is a wardrobe cornerstone to be worn and treasured for years to come. Few pieces work as hard, or make as strong a statement, as a beautifully cut Westwood jacket.

What is Vivienne Westwood ‘Drunken’ tailoring?

‘Drunken’ tailoring is one of Vivienne Westwood’s most celebrated techniques, jackets and blazers cut with deliberately twisted, off-kilter seams and lapels. The result is tailoring that appears to move around the body, giving each piece a distinctive, sculptural character.

Are Vivienne Westwood jackets oversized or fitted?

The range includes both structured, tailored blazers and more relaxed or cropped styles, so fit varies by design. Many follow Italian sizing (for example IT40 to IT46); we recommend checking each product’s size guide to find your best fit.

How do you style a Vivienne Westwood jacket?

A Westwood jacket makes an outfit. Layer a check or pinstripe blazer over tailored trousers for a sharp look, soften a structured style with a knit and denim, or let a Drunken or asymmetric jacket be the statement piece over something simple.
