Knitted Circle

Zandra Rhodes is a British textile and fashion designer whose boldly patterned silks and unconventional garment construction defined 1970s avant-garde fashion. Working across screen-printed fabrics, hand-painted textiles, and draped evening wear, she created pieces that merged fine art sensibility with wearable design, often featuring her signature exotic prints and asymmetrical cuts. Her work established a distinctive visual language within postwar British design that bridged art and couture.
