Zandra Rhodes is a British institution. Rising to fame as a fashion and textile designer in the 1970s, her audacious, highly feminine designs put her at the forefront of the London fashion scene. This shirt is crafted from a high quality man-made cloth, made to mirror silk, and dates back to the late 1970s. It features many hallmarks of that era - we love the laid-back, straight cut silhouette and blouson sleeves. This romantic shirt fastens down the front with tonal pearlescent buttons and has a small rounded collar. The shirt all features a decadent plissé-pleated, ruffle collar which is detachable and ties at the front of the neck. This shirt is unlined. The original label reads “Zandra Rhodes London” and is accompanied by care labels printed with sketches by Zandra Rhodes and her hand-writing.

This playful shirt is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note. The labels state 100% Polyester and a size UK 12. Vintage sizes vary hugely so it is best to check our measurements below as the fabric has little stretch. We believe that this would best fit a size smaller - so a UK 10 or US 6. Our model's sizes are: Bust: 31" (80cm), Waist 25" (64cm), Hips: 34" (87cm) and 5' 4" (164cm) and she's a size UK 6, US 2. This blouse looked great on her with some room to spare.
