Guests at a new London show are invited to closely inspect Daniel Lismore's nearly 2-metre-tall pieces of 'wearable art'.

British artist Daniel Lismore's monumental pieces of "wearable art", featuring everything from rubbish to elaborate headgear studded with jewels, took centre stage at London's Victoria and Albert Museum on Friday, August 5.

The pieces — featuring brightly coloured fabrics and metallic embellishments — took between two hours and eight months to put together, and were inspired by people and objects from around the world, Lismore said."There's an honorary i-D magazine cover. There's a piece that I wore to Buckingham Palace for the Queen's Platinum Party. There's pieces from everywhere you can imagine, things I find on the floor, rubbish, pieces from Bulgari, pieces from all over.
