Holland & Holland creative directors Stella Tennant and Isabella Cawdor invited friends for dinner and a show: an edit of the stylish duo’s picks of 20th-century art, selected from the upcoming Sotheby’s Modern & Post War British Art auction.
Last night, fashion industry veterans and Holland & Holland creative directors Stella Tennant and Isabella Cawdor invited friends for dinner and a show: an edit of the stylish duo’s picks of 20th-century art, selected from the upcoming Sotheby’s Modern & Post War British Art auction .

A supper of halibut with fennel and butternut squash was served as guests including Jonathan and Ronnie Newhouse, Henry, Earl of Glamorgan, and interior designer Fran Hickman all chatted over the bountiful vases of vanda orchids, plum astrantia, and a very on-brand wild heather. The room was also adorned with large-scale, unseen works by British photographer Jamie Hawkesworth, and specially framed for the evening .
