The 'orb' of Vivienne Westwood reflects the orb of the British Crown Jewels but with the addition of the 'planetary' circle around it she gave it a bit of a punk twist. She has always used a lot of tweeds and tartans, which even inspired her logo:
"The infamous Harris Tweed is certified as a genuine by the Harris Tweed Authority. The orb motif was reworked by Vivienne Westwood for her label logo." (from the book, Made in Britain)
