Never one afraid to up the fashion stakes – artist Grayson Perry looked amazing when he opened London Craft Week on Wednesday evening at the V&A.
Grayson rocked a colourful craft-inspired dress with pink and purple platforms to launch the public programme which runs from Thursday until Sunday.
He said: “I am officially this evening’s liability but in all seriousness it is my enormous pleasure to be invited to launch London Craft Week.
“This is a great moment acknowledging that craft is woven into many parts of our lives.
“It is the place where we connect with the materials all around us.
“Craftsman working with their hands are relevant to modern life and encompass so many businesses from tailors and jewellers to cars manufacturers and joiners, ensuring that Craft isn’t some sort of nostalgic thing’.”
