London fashion designer, Vivienne Westwood, famed for her shoes, handbags and edgy clothing has turned her design eye to hospitality.
Partnering with Richmond Design, Westwood has worked on the décor and customised furnishings in a US-based hotel.
The designer's suite in The London West Hollywood spans 11,000 square feet and is being billed as Los Angeles’s largest hotel suite and costs US $25,000 per night.
It has private access to the 5,000-square-foot terrace, which can accommodate 300 guests and offers views of the LA valley and Hollywood hills.
The London general manager Jeff Kulek said: “We are proud to unveil the city's largest, most lavish and fashion-forward hotel suite, inspired by renowned designer Vivienne Westwood, and we look forward to impressing our discerning guests with all it has to offer."

The penthouse is set to open 18 May on the 10th floor of The London, which is also opening three more suites on the second floor as part of its $25 million renovation.
The Westwood-inspired two-bed suite features Westwood’s iconic squiggle, the Union Jack and showcases items from the designer’s 30-year career.
"It's really exciting to see our designs translated into an interior space," said Andreas Kronthaler, Vivienne Westwood design partner & creative director.
The hotel also features a 110-seat cinema, several junket rooms and a 2600-square-foot fitness centre.
Guests who book the suite will benefit from additional perks such as his and her gift bags when they check in, a one-hour private shopping session at Westwood’s L.A. boutique.
Westwood famously redesigned Virgin Atlantic’s cabin crew uniforms last year and has recently released her summer 2015 collection.
