Zandra Rhodes Art Film - Eat Your Chiffon
The 1960s brought on an explosion of creative genius in the British arts scene. And the biggest bomb of color and innovation was a young fashion designer named Zandra Rhodes.
Zandra wasn't just inspired by her surroundings, she lived them-green hair, theatrical makeup and bold patterns were her extroverted fatigues. While her color palette is bold and punchy, her designs are fluid and feminine using fabrics such as chiffon, organza and crinoline. She designs for women like me who like "Pretty Punk Rock".
While her hair color has changed to a punctuating fuschia, she remains a walking canvas reflecting her love for nature, art and design.
Apparently, Zandra's friends are as colorful and surreal as her designs. "Chapter7: Eat Your Chiffon" is a surreal dinner party art film starring fashion icons such as Natt Weller, Marios Schwab and IQONS founder, Rafael Jimenez amongst others and some other strange characters in Zandra Rhodes penthouse. The film was shot by an amazing new photographer/filmmaker Ben Charles Edwards (www.bencharlesedwards.com) who was inspired by Chapter 7 of Alice in Wonderland and John Waters' Eat Your Make-Up.
Part 1 was released last week and part 2 was released today. You can expect Part 3 on the 21st. Please take a look here for a preview www.glassloves.com or www.youtube.com/glassloves.
