Inspired by one of the most notorious and financially successful madam’s in New Orleans, Storyville, Lulu (1868 – 1931) promoted herself and fellow sex workers, many of whom were also women of color, defying the segregation laws in Louisiana at the time.

An eccentric figure, she was noted for her entrepreneurship, love of jewelry, influence on jazz music, and sex-positive spirit. Step into lulu’s Chambre Privée and take in the rustic boujee decor, and live performances.
