Somerset House opens the world premiere of Fleurs de Villes DIANA this week, an exhibition in which fifteen of London’s leading floral designers reinterpret defining looks worn by Diana, Princess of Wales, entirely in fresh flowers. Staged in support of The Diana Award, the twenty-one-day exhibition sits at an unusual intersection of fashion history, floristry and charitable fundraising — territory that art criticism does not often venture into.

Art in Perpetuity Trust opens its Deptford studios to the public this weekend, offering free, direct access to working artists ahead of London’s fair-driven autumn calendar. The event stands as a functioning counterpoint to Frieze week’s VIP-priced access model.
