Meet London’s Most Outrageous Dresser

by Caroline Grosso

Some refer to Daniel Lismore as an eccentric. Whatever you may think, it’s hard not to conclude that the 31-year-old artist takes more time getting ready in the morning than you do. That is because he painstakingly curates everything he wears from a vast collection of vintage McQueen, Galliano, avant-garde design pieces, and jewelry. The (daily) end result is spectacular, and now his 3,000-piece collection, which are layered meticulously across 30-odd looks, can be seen on display at SCAD’s pop up exhibition at a space in the Wynwood design district. Opened to coincide with Art Basel, “The Theater of Self” will be on view through this weekend.
