Cora Corré said her role at Vivienne Westwood had become 'untenable,' and that she would work for the Vivienne Foundation, founded by her grandmother.
A model and activist who worked closely with her grandmother on a variety of projects, she will serve as director and Campaign and Projects manager at the Vivienne Foundation.The not-for-profit foundation partners with nongovernmental organizations on efforts to halt climate change, stop war, defend human rights and protest against capitalism. It also controls all of Westwood’s copyrights and intellectual property, including her pre-1993 designs.
“Vivienne taught me to always stand up for what is right, and I want to stay true to that. Due to a breakdown in relations between the Vivienne Westwood company and the Vivienne Foundation, my role within the company has become untenable.“Moving forward, I will focus my energy on honoring my grandmother’s legacy through the Vivienne Foundation and continuing the work that was so important to her.
In an email to the Vivienne Westwood staff, Corré elaborated on her reasons for leaving, saying that despite the foundation’s best efforts “it has now been two years, and not a single conversation has been instigated by the VW Company with the foundation. This breakdown in communication has brought me so much sadness.
“We understand that Palace entered into the collaboration with VW company in good faith and they were not aware of this situation. However, it is very unfortunate that this has been allowed to happen, and we hope that under the circumstances the parties involved will do the right thing, and honor Vivienne’s wishes.
“The Vivienne Foundation was established by Vivienne herself to support the charities, organizations, and causes she was so passionate about. We hope that the parties involved will with the foundation’s mission moving forward.”Julia TetiKaia Gerber Favors Playful Transparency in Ferragamo Fringe Cocktail….
