London’s elite turned up at the Victoria and Albert Museum last night to fete the new “David Bowie Is” exhibit.  For an event dedicated to someone with such iconic fashion, we’re disappointed at the drab red carpet looks.  Except for Tilda Swinton, who rocked a mean tailored trouser look by Haider Ackermann, the rest were just ok.
