2010s Zandra Rhodes Couture Green Sequin Dress and Shawl Active

£1,200.00
This beautiful Zandra Rhodes couture dress and scarf ensemble is cut in really gorgeous shades of green silk chiffon. Her abstract, signature screen-printed fabric is worked by hand in a lime, apple green, white and silvery brown colourway, with delicate threads of sequins and bugle beads running through it. The dress is fitted through to the hip and flares out with overlaid elongated panels, similar to a car wash style which separate when you walk, creating a bohemian and flowing look. It is lined with a pale mint silk that is cut with a similar wide fringe detail and which feels cool and comfortable for the wearer. The style reminds us of the early flapper dresses of the late 1910s and 1920s when women were released from constraining undergarments and fashions moved to a less constructed look. The very long and extravagant scarf is nearly twice the length and one and a half times the width of the dress and can be styled as a shawl, neck scarf or worn separately.

The lady who consigned this dress was a close personal friend of Zandra Rhodes who bespoke designed and made this dress ensemble for her son's wedding around 8 years ago. The dress is in beautiful vintage condition with no stains or flaws to note. Due to its dropped waist, it would fit sizes up to a 10-12 UK, or 6-8 US.

F.A.Q.

Will you set anything aside for me before I come?

We are happy to find anything you may be interested in from our website - please let us know a week in advance. 

We also have an extensive offline collection. If you let us know your size, style, favourite colour to wear and perhaps your budget, we can browse through our archive in advance of your appointment. 
Do I need to bring anything with me?

Clients may wish to bring modern shapewear when trying on garments from certain eras, especially the 1950s. Vintage clothing was often worn with undergarments that shaped the waist and as such is tailored for them.


We have a huge variety of slip dresses and petticoats to complete your look; many of which are also for sale.


You may also wish to bring your favourite footwear. We often find a classic pair of nude shoes work well when trying on, or a pair in gold or silver.
Do you have a price range?

Many of our lower-priced pieces (under £150) are not available to buy online. Our prices range from £80 - £600 for separates. Dresses start at around £150 and go up to £2,500 for the very best antique pieces and designer vintage. Our bridalwear ranges from £300 - £3,000.
Can I bring anyone with me?
