Zandra Rhodes is a famously colourful British fashion designer. She was introduced to the fashion world by her mother, who was a teacher at Medway College of Art. Zandra Rhodes graduated from the Royal College of Art in London in 1964. Her major area of study was printed textile design. Zandra Rhodes is renowned for her unconventional clothes and pink hair. Her designs are considered clear, creative statements, dramatic but graceful, bold but feminine.

Zandra Rhodes was considered as one of the new wave of British designers who put London at the forefront of the international fashion scene in the 1970s. She designed costumes for Princess Diana and Freddie Mercury of Queen, and continues to design for royalty and celebrities. In May 7 2009, Zandra Rhodes teamed up with Marks & Spencer and launched a capsule collection, using her creative and iconic designs as inspiration, featuring a range of women’s wear, accessories, holiday pieces and lingerie. It turned out to be a huge success.

Zandra also has her very own collection of jewellery. Her inspiration has always come from organic material and nature, and the Zandra Rhodes Jewellery collection continues this theme. Turning silk into yellow and white gold or silver with a combination of precious and semi-precious stones, such as Sapphire, Swarovski Crystal, and Pink Tourmaline, etc. Zandra has created five different styles of beautiful and stylish necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, and brooches. The Zandra Rhodes jewellery includes five separate collections, which are Oriental Whisper collection, Punk Chic Collection, Lovely Lilies collection, Signature collection and Manhattan Lady Collection.

The inspiration for the Oriental Whisper Collection was the eternal 'wiggle' line that is featured in nearly every one of Zandra's fabulous textile designs, and has become the staple of Zandra's work in this field; The inspiration for Punk Chic collection came from her days as the 'Queen of Punk' where her haute couture collections included torn fabrics, pinned together with safety pins. Zandra's safety pin designs came a long time before Versace and Vivien Westwood.

The inspiration for the Lovely Lilies Collection was the printed design from her Lilies collection in the 1980's. Each piece is formed from the printed textile design on beautiful mother of pearl back drop. Throughout all Zandra’s master pieces, her signature ‘ZR’ can be seen as a mark of creativity and charisma; hence the ‘Signature’ collection was born. The inspiration for Manhattan Lady Collection came from the signature 'Painted Lady' drawing that runs through many of her textile designs. The image was created while on a trip to the South of France and inspired by New York artist Barbara Nessim's pictures of women's heads, Hence the image is known as the Manhattan Lady in her jewellery collection.
