MISS MILLICENT ROGERS AT "BLACKPOINT"

MISS MILLICENT ROGERS
HARPER'S BAZAAR
1923
   
   Miss Rogers, who spent the early summer at Tuxedo, is now prominently identified with the social activities of Southampton, where her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry H. Rogers, who have a beautiful estate with extensive gardens, delightfully adopted to entertaining.

  Who knew “Miss Moneybags” would have her own wikipedia site, her own museum, a book - Searching for Beauty - The Life of Millicent Rogers and was on the list for best dressed women in the world from 1940-1946.
