Listen "41: Dame Zandra Rhodes"
Episode Synopsis
Bunny is with the world famous fashion and textile designer Dame Zandra Rhodes in her zany 9th Floor flat in London, which has tiny outdoor spaces that face south, north and west.
Despite Zandra having designed clothes for numerous super stars such as Freddie Mercury, Princess Diana and Princess Anne, Zandra has a very down to earth side being passionate about making her own bread, listening to the Archers and Gardeners’ Question Time and of course creating her spectacular garden.
Her home is filled with mementoes that she has collected throughout her action packed, extraordinarily successful career that spans well over 60 years. Zandra entertains her eclectic and wide circle of friends regularly, cooking her famous salmon with mango salsa for them - though has been known to fall asleep at the table due to her punishing work schedule.
Her pink hair is always a talking point but she explains the unexpected affect it has had on her illustrious career.
To see Zandra’s fabulous flat and gardens see Bunny’s YouTube video ‘Zandra Rhodes, in her plot with its fantastic plants, patterns and paints’.
