Frightfully Chic: Noël Coward and Fashion 

Join Noël Coward: Art & Style Curator Brad Rosenstein for a lively online panel discussion about Coward's tremendous influence on fashion ahead of the last stretch of the exhibition on display.
From the great couturiers like Molyneux, Hartnell, and Stiebel who dressed his leading ladies to extraordinary costume designers like Gladys Calthrop, Doris Zinkeisen, and Irene Sharaff, the artists crafting Coward’s premiere productions boldly helped to set the styles of their eras. Coward’s own personal style, from his wardrobes on stage and off to the décor of his houses, reflected his glittering theatrical world and a love of chic understatement that was quintessentially English. The presentation will combine delectable visuals with sparkling commentary from panellists including renowned designer Georgina von Etzdorf; author Lucinda Gosling (Fashion: The Evolution of Style); Norman Hartnell biographer Michael Pick; and Gertrude Lawrence authority and collector Timothy Morgan-Owen.
