Fashion Becomes Tea: In celebration of the V&A South Kensington's Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art Exhibition

In celebration of the V&A South Kensington’s groundbreaking Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art exhibition, The Kensington presents Fashion Becomes Tea – an afternoon tea inspired by surrealist couture and bold imagination. Sculptural pastries, expressive colours and playful flavour pairings create a sensorial runway of taste, echoing the artistry and avant‑garde elegance at the heart of the show.

Priced at £65 per person, or £80 per person with Champagne or a special cocktail, Fashion Becomes Tea is a decadent cultural experience. Exclusive hotel packages are also available for V&A visitors, just moments away in the heart of South Kensington.

Please note that from 15th June 2026, we will be unveiling an elegant new chapter of our Afternoon Tea experience, thoughtfully curated to delight and inspire.
