Dame Zandra Rhodes is a British designer and pioneer of the fashion industry. In the early 1960s, Rhodes launched her iconic brand that took the fashion scene by storm with its fusion of print, textiles, and pattern. Originally seen as “too extreme,” her bold designs earned her the nickname “the Princess of Punk,” and led her to dress household names like Freddie Mercury, Diana Ross, Barbra Streisand, Princess Anne and Princess Diana.
As part of Rhodes' Hall of Fame Induction, Rhodes gave a lecture to the School of Fashion students, faculty, and fashion enthusiasts in Rockwell Hall.
