I Have A Question: FTM 2005 Zandra Rhodes Butterfly Caftan
This is from the special and limited collection from the 2005 produced specifically for the 2005 Zandra Rhodes: A Lifelong Love Affair with Textiles: Retrospective of Zandra Rhodes work that was shown at the Fashion and Textile Museum, London. It is an incredible display of her talents on print and textile and draws back on her greatest designs. A "butterfly" caftan is is almost weightless and done in a vibrant, deep hued pink silk chiffon. Pretty blossoms splay across its surface. I love the deep front and back with its ties in piped matching fabric. The arm and hem are a curved and cut deep scalloped finish giving the piece an extra feel of airiness and floating. Very beautiful, very collectible and rare and it was never worn so is in perfect condition!
Bust: no true side seams
Waist: 17-20" flat across from side seam to side seam, but on bias and meant to fit loosely
Hips: open
Bodice: 12" from the neck to top center seam and each side drops to approx 17" from shoulder:
Skirt: approx 46" from that center spot in the front to longest point of hem
Total length: 60" from shoulder to very longest points but it does come up a bit on as it is all cut on the bias.
Unlined and slips over the head. Ties sit at the neck and also at the back. Once on it just drapes into place so is very forgiving size wise. The color is best shown in the close up
Modern Sizing equivalent: XS-SML
Item# DD1111

I Have A Question: Gorgeous 1980s Zandra Rhodes Deep Red Cut Velvet Caftan Dress w Beaded Detailing
Zandra Rhodes is one of my favorite designers and it is always a treat to have one of her pieces for you. This is an incredible cut velvet fabric that she has had custom made with one of her own proprietary designs. It gives it that incredible Zandra Rhode touch while hearkening back to the decadence of the twenties in feel.
The fabric on this dress is just stunning. It is a cut fused velvet in a chiffon with one of her signature designs made from the velvet parts. The velvet is in a rich deep burgundy red colour that catches the light beautifully. This is fused onto a black chiffon base and the contrast between the two is fabulous. The chiffon parts are partially transparent so you get a sense of that but the dress is but it is also line in black so that it is not completely see-through. The addition of the velvet gives the dress an incredible sensual feel and it feels wonderful when on the body. It is cut in an easy to wear and flattering cut. It simply skims over the body past the bust to the loose and easy cut waist. It skims over the hip and gently widens out as it nears the hem. The bodice has extra detailing across the front with hand applied sequin and beads. The sleeves are unlined and are cut to be wide and full to just about the elbow. Each sleeve is open along the inner seam and the edges slightly overlap so that when you move they have incredible movement. The end of each sleeve is finished beads and sequins. At the wide cut neck there is a panel of silk that is gathered with beads for the perfect finishing detail. The dress appears to have never been worn or worn very little. Excellent condition
The dress is fully lined in a black silky rayon and it closes with a back zipper. The bead and sequin work detailing are hand applied. This came from the estate of a very good Zandra Rhodes client and was most likely a custom/direct order.
Shoulders: 15.5"
Bust: to 19" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: to 15.5" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 21" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Length: 53.5" from shoulder to longest points on the hem

I Have A Question: Spring 1982 Zandra Rhodes 'The Fairy Collection' Hand Painted Metallic Gold Lace & Silk Dress
Zandra Rhodes is one of my favourite designers and I love the pieces that she did in the 1980s. This dress is closest to the work she did for her 'Fairy' collection that was done for the Spring 1981 season. The collection has a strong showing of these black and gold pieces that featured her amazing custom hand painted prints.
This is a stunning dress that is done in a dramatic combination of black and gold. The skirt is hand painted and the lace on the top has been selected to match and compliment the skirt's design. The bodice is made of a black lace netting that has gold metallic thread woven through to highlight the design in the fabric. The neckline is squared off and I love how the edges of the lace follow the pattern across the neck and back to soften the straight line there. The sleeves are set into that and curve over the shoulders and then run down the arm to just past the elbow. They are unlined so you get glimpses of skin through them. The top curves down past the waist and flares out over the top of the hips. The skirt is set under that and is very full, widening out as it nears the hem. The skirt is constructed in layers. The very outer top layer is a silk organza and then there are layers of tulle with a third inner black silky rayon lining under that. These built in layers are what gives it the fullness that you see and I have not added any extra underskirts. The top layer is completely covered with one of Zandra's signature designs. The gold runs over the entire surface and it is all completely hand painted with a beautiful sun pattern. It is gorgeous and, like all of her pieces, it is very special. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. Excellent condition
Fully lined in a black silky rayon and closes with a back hidden set zipper. The skirt is made up of multiple layers of as described above. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. Tagged a UK 12, US 10.
Sleeves: 16"
Shoulders: no true defined seam
Bust: 18.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 15" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Length: 60" from top of shoulder to hem
