emblem of monarchy since Charles II's 1661 coronation — with a planetary ring taken from astronomy photos of Saturn, so wearing this earring is carrying a deliberate clash of sacred royal heritage and cosmic futurism that defines Westwood's punk approach to luxury.","1985_86_origin_under_fiorucci":"Vivienne Westwood designed the orb during a year-long Italian sabbatical with Elio Fiorucci,
