The exhibition at Victoria Gate in Leeds takes visitors though the last 40 years of the brand’s shoe archive. A limited edition run of the Seditionaries Boots, named after one of Westwood’s early stores, will be available to order from its outlet in the nearby Victoria Quarter. The exhibition is open until 16 December.

  • Liverpool one

    The Scouse factor: Shopping centre Liverpool One has been open for 10 years and, to mark its anniversary, co-owner Grosvenor Europe has assessed its contribution to the city and the UK. It says Liverpool One has contributed £1.6bn to the UK Exchequer, created 4,700 jobs and delivered £1.20 of every £100 of Liverpool’s GVA (gross value added). The centre has also donated £2m to the local community over the past decade via the Liverpool One Foundation, which supports community projects.
