It was an evening to celebrate creativity when artists from the Royal Drawing School visited St. James's Palace on June 24—and guests certainly brought it, from their artwork to their feet. Two attendees made an unexpected style statement by wearing Crocs to a special reception hosted by King Charles and Queen Camilla, but rather than balk at the comfy clogs, the monarch handled the occasion with good humor.
The reception marked the 25th anniversary of the Royal Drawing School, of which The King is founding patron. Known for his lifelong passion for the arts (and a seriously impressive talent for painting), King Charles welcomed artists and alumni of the school, including Tracey Emin and Grayson Perry, who both proudly sported the polarizing footwear.
