A Stylish Sip: Afternoon Tea & Fall Fashion Show

Join us for A Stylish Sip: Afternoon Tea & Fall Fashion Show

at the beautiful Mercer Island Beach Club.

Guests will enjoy a seasonal tea spread with sweet and savory bites from local bakeries, paired with curated teas from Koshay. The experience begins with a guided tea journey, where Richa Rai will share how to savor tea like fine wine, exploring its aroma, depth, and flavor notes.

While sipping your tea, be inspired by a Fall Fashion Show featuring The Refind. Known as Seattle’s pioneering luxury live-show consignment boutique, The Refind unlocks some of the most exclusive closets in the world and has earned a cult following both locally and nationally. For one afternoon only, The Refind will take center stage on Mercer Island, styled by Ashley Meiss, showcasing a hand-picked edit of rare designer ready-to-wear, handbags, and accessories.

Guests will also be treated to live fashion portraits by Galina Adzhigirey of D.Blue, a one-of-a-kind keepsake to remember the day.

When the fashion show concludes, the celebration continues with a curated trunk show showcasing women-owned brands — open to the community from 2:30–4:30 PM.

Hosted by The Style Collective, this event is all about celebrating style, flavor, and connection in a welcoming waterfront setting.
