More DescriptionSome of the biggest names in British fashion and art, ranging from royal wedding-dress designer Sarah Burton to sculptor Marc Quinn, paired-up in a unique collaboration to create works to celebrate 'Olympic Values'. Called Britain Creates 2012, the project was a highlight of the London 2012 Festival. This book presents the results of these unprecedented collaborations, across different artisitic mediums, from: Christopher Bailey, Charming Baker, Sarah Burton, Hussein Chalayan, Dinos Chapman, Giles Deacon, Jeremy Deller, Jess Flood-Paddock, Christopher Kane, Mary Katrantzou, Stella McCartney, Erdem Moralioglu, Marc Quinn, Jonathan Saunders, Paul Smith and Vivienne Westwood.
