Insise The Limited Edition Autumn Winter 2025 Worlds End Capsule

Vivienne Westwood is taking things back to where it all began for Autumn/Winter 2025–26, with the latest Worlds End capsule now available exclusively from the brand’s legendary 430 Kings Road boutique in London.​

“Worlds End” a living piece of fashion history

Opened in 1971 at 430 Kings Road, Worlds End is the original shop where Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren tested radical ideas, cut clothes with unconventional methods, and effectively wrote the visual code for punk. The space went through multiple identities—Let It Rock, Too Fast to Live Too Young to Die, SEX, Seditionaries—before settling on Worlds End in 1980 to debut the now‑iconic “Pirate” collection, the name it still carries today.​

Today’s Worlds End Collection is built around unisex “clothes for heroes”—including bondage trousers, kilts, and slogan T‑shirts—made using leftover production fabrics from previous seasons, with quantities determined by how much remnant material is available. That makes each AW25/26 piece inherently limited, aligning with the brand’s long-standing commitment to anti-waste design and circular thinking.​

AW25/26 Worlds End: what’s in store

The AW25/26 Vivienne Westwood Worlds End drop, teased on Instagram and now live in-store, continues this heritage, reworking archive codes like pirate cuts, asymmetric patterning, and confrontational graphics through a contemporary lens. Items sit alongside the wider Autumn–Winter 2025/26 collection, which the brand is currently promoting with up to 40 percent off selected styles online, but the Worlds End pieces themselves remain tied to the 430 Kings Road address.​

The shop’s product mix includes updated versions of classics such as the Worlds End Swing Dress, featuring soft cotton jersey and Union Jack motifs, as well as reissues of squiggle and Indian prints originally shown in the early 1980s collections “Pirates” and “Savages.”​
