- What is a study room in a house?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A study room — frequently just called a study — is a room in the house reserved for quiet and reflection.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024Vivienne Westwood studied at the Harrow School of Art in Harrow, UK, and at the University of Westminster in London.
She took courses in both fashion design and silversmithing. However, she did not stay at either institution long enough to earn a degree. In the early 1960s, she began to make her own necklaces and other jewelry and met artist, activist and entrepreneur Malcolm McLaren. She made clothes for him in the style of the Teddy Boys, the city's music-crazed, occasionally violent teenagers who wore high-waisted trousers and tailored velvet blazers that drew on Edwardian-era fashions. Westwood and McLaren opened a vintage shop on King's Road in London in 1971, and eventually, Westwood produced and sold her own pieces at the store, marking the start of her work as a designer.
Shop a selection of Vivienne Westwood apparel, jewelry and accessories on 1stDibs. - Where did Joan Miró study?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Joan Miró studied art at the School of Industrial and Fine Arts in Barcelona, Spain.
