Vivienne Westwood at Snake time
To mark the Year of the Snake, Vivienne Westwood unveils a limited edition watch collection. The collection combines symbolism, bold design and exceptional craftsmanship.
Inspired by the sixth sign of the lunar zodiac, this collection celebrates the values of transformation, wisdom and intuition associated with the snake. Available in two limited editions of 300 pieces each, the “New Year of the Serpent” watches embody both mystery and sophistication.
Two enchanting versions: Silver and Red/Gold
The Silver version offers sober, refined elegance. The dial, with its embossed motifs, evokes the scales of a snake. It is enhanced by fang-shaped hour markers and an hour hand adorned with a bifid point. Vivienne Westwood’s emblematic orb logo is subtly revisited with serpentine lines.
For a more flamboyant aesthetic, the Red/Gold version combines a vibrant red dial with luxurious gold details. This recalls the festive energy of the Lunar New Year. The raised embossing, inspired by the snake’s scales, and the logo adorned with a golden snake add a captivating, bold dimension to this creation.
Art for meaning at Vivienne Westwood
From the outset, Vivienne Westwood has used fashion and watchmaking as mediums to tell stories. With this collection, the Maison pays tribute to the values of personal transformation and respect for cultural traditions. Each watch thus becomes much more than a simple accessory: a symbol of renewal, inner strength and elegance.
Wearing a “New Year of the Snake” watch by Vivienne Westwood is to assert your style while celebrating the harmony between tradition and modernity, a vibrant tribute to the Year of the Snake and its symbolic power.
