“A stylist in Los Angeles sent me three dresses from different designers in London, Berlin and New York for the premieres of a movie. The clothes arrived at my hotel in London dirty, unflattering and in need of alterations. I didn’t know what to do, until a mutual friend immediately took me to the atelier of Vivienne Westwood who made me a new dress in three days and two more for each of the premieres. I will never forget her generosity and kindness in everything she did, saving my day,” Kim Cattrall wrote.

My longtime hairstylist and friend Sean James has been a fan of hers forever. He has her face tattooed all over her and she was his muse. The legacy of creativity he left us will last forever,” concluded the actress.
