The beautiful hues of lavender and green in the arrangements of flowers on the tables danced in the sunlight like impressionistic art at An Afternoon in Giverny, a luncheon for friends hosted by Dame Donna Anne Soloway at Orsay, and a tribute to the art and gardens of Claude Monet. Guests luxuriated in the Belle Epoque decor while enjoying delicious authentic bistro cuisine.

Among the ladies who don’t just lunch: Judith Ripka, Dina Merrill, Marla Helene, Lucia Hwong Gordon, Julie Vacca, Tina Louise, Sylvia Miles, Helene Kaplan, Dana Catalano, Cynthia Maltese, Jacqueline Stahl, Suzanna Sabet, Colleen Rein, Dr. Georgia Witkin, Mary Sliwa, Lyn Paulsin, and Debra Wasser.

Congrats Donna—your taste is exquisite!
