Inside Lucie’s Wardrobe: Afternoon Tea

Mark the launch of the 2026 Focus Tour: Inside Lucie’s Wardrobe in style with an elegant afternoon tea served in the magnificent Music Room; you'll be among a select group to see Lucie's remarkable fashions displayed in the Rosen House for the first time in over thirty years. From the shimmering silks of the 1930s to the bold colors of the 1960s, and her breathtaking fancy dress costume inspired by Botticelli's Primavera, Lucie's clothing reflects a life lived with elegance, curiosity, and joy. 

The full afternoon tea service includes savory tea sandwiches, scones with crème fraîche and preserves, and elegant desserts, plus a complimentary glass of bubbly, our gift to you!
Your attendance directly supports the conservation and restoration of Lucie's extraordinary collection, ensuring these treasured garments can be shared and celebrated for generations to come.
