Summer Research Fellowship 2025: Lucie Rosen, Woman of Style

Applications are now being accepted for the 2025 Rosen House Summer Research Fellowship. Intended for a graduate student or recent graduate, the Caramoor Summer Research Fellowship allows for a short-term, sustained period of study at the Rosen House. The focus of study for the 2025 fellowship is the wardrobe of Lucie Bigelow Rosen, which contains examples of the work of Mariano Fortuny and Ethel Wallace, as well as dressmakers from Henri Bendel and other retailers in New York and Europe.

The 2025 fellow will examine the garments and accessories (about 160 items), assess condition, improve catalog descriptions, and conduct research into designers and labels to enhance catalog records. The Rosen House archive will be a primary source for research, with ample opportunities to consult outside sources. A stipend is provided.
