Attributed to Vivienne Westwood’s late 1990s to early 2000s Gold Label period, this “SEX” graphic t-shirt references the designer’s original Seditionaries boutique, opened in 1974 at 430 King’s Road, London. The printed phrase recalls the visual language and ideological stance of the early punk era, where Westwood’s work challenged conventions around sexuality, politics, and dress. Reissued and reinterpreted across later collections, the motif reflects a continued engagement with her foundational archive, with similar examples held in institutional collections including The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
