Ed Sheeran or V&A?

Ed Sheeran’s red carpet suits are suitably super, but wait, we have found some V&A objects that match! We started with Timothee Chalamet, so – in another game of ‘who wore it better?’ lets compare and decide!

Is it a bird, is it an Ed Sheeran? Ed is sporting a super crisp white shirt and black tie, and so is the penguin! Okay, okay, maybe not the tie, but we think they make a cute pair!

If it ain’t Baroque, don’t fix it! Ed and this 18th century clock have much to discuss, mostly about how eye-catching they both are. It’s a blue/gold stand-off – but who will win? The ultimate test of time… *mic drop*

If Ed and this 19th century candlestick were in a game of Cluedo, you’d not be able to tell the difference! It was Professor Plum, in the lounge, with the Ed Sheeran!

Just a quick random question – you don’t have to answer it if you don’t want to.

Have you ever visited the Young V&A museum?

3 3d Yōkai hang from the ceiling at Young V&A museum, they are 3 Yōkai made from umbrellas. 1 is large and black with a big pink tongue, the second is a colourful bird, the third is one that looks like a human figure with a large flower for a head

Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the most fabulous of them all? This a tricky one, but we think if Ed stood in front of this gilded 17th century mirror, the reflection would be so insanely good, there would be more magic than the one in Snow White.

True blue, we love you! Ed wore this powder blue suit to the Met Gala 2024 and blue some minds…. get it? Never mind. You decide – does the 18th century porcelain vase win the ‘who can match the sky’ better, or Ed?
