Seeing double at Art Fund shindig

The Art Newspaper

The Duchess of Cambridge's frock and hair do were not the only talking point at the Art Fund's Museum of the Year bash on Wednesday night (6 July). The Turner-prize winning artist Grayson Perry's alter ego, Claire, met her doppelganger, Caroline Worthington. The chief executive of Bexley Heritage Trust in south London, shared curatorial small-talk while attracting admiring glances at the pre-awards drinks. Grayson later tweeted a pic of the pair of power dressers. For the record, Claire wore an art-deco inspired bespoke frock, Caroline was in Scandi-minimalist by Cos. Meanwhile, the former Kate Middleton was in a full-length, off-the-shoulder ‎dress. The sartorial effect somewhat overshadowed the Serpentine summer party down the street, another swanky event that night.
