I was kindly invited by a friend to the revealing of Zandra Rhodes new Fashion and Jewellery collections. It was in the Mandeville Hotel where we also had a beautiful afternoon tea designed by Zandra. She was a real inspiration with her prints especially her colour palette, it was very brave using almost fluorescent bright pinks, blues and oranges. I have realised my prints are simple but with the layered fabrics and colour clashing they will look exciting. All being well I am going intern with her next year, I feel the way she works is very much print before fashion, she does the prints then they lend themselves to the fashion. It was a really lovely evening, with some very interesting people there something I could get used to!
