Vivienne Westwood could bring her Autumn/Winter 2008 collection back to London Fashion Week after choosing to show in Paris since the early 80s.

The extrovert designer is rumoured to be making the move back to home turf in time for February's LFW according to industry insiders.

WWD reports that she is likely to unveil one or more of her fall 2008 collections at the event to become the latest in a string of celebrity designers — including Matthew Williamson, Stella McCartney, Luella Bartley and Marc Jacobs — who have returned to the capital in recent seasons.

But don't think it's because she's getting homesick for British fashion- Vivienne plans to incoporate the show with the launch "Vivienne Westwood Opus," a coffee-table book of portraits she's taken of celebs including Helena Bonham Carter, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.

A spokeswoman for Westwood declined to comment about the move.
