We visit a new exhibition at London’s V&A dedicated to all things diva. Curator Kate Bailey joins Robert Bound to discuss how the show celebrates the power and creativity of iconic performers across the ages, while fashion designer Bob Mackie tells us how he created such a wealth of iconic looks. Plus: Monocle’s Fernando Augusto Pacheco and film critic Christina Newland share their thoughts on how divas intersect with society.
