    Abstract for consideration for the Association for Dress Historians Research Day, Saturday 16 February 2013 Uncovering hidden treasures in silver trunks: the Zandra Rhodes Digital Study Collection Hidden away in silver trunks at the Zandra Rhodes Studio are over 5,000 dresses spanning fifty years of British Fashion and including designs worn by clients such as Elizabeth Taylor, Freddie Mercury, and Diana, Princess of Wales. The Zandra Rhodes Digital Study Collection, with an accompanying Open Education Resource (OER), will provide unique online access to images of 500 of the designer’s most iconic garments, for use in study and research by the next generation of fashion and textile Zandra Rhodes at her Studio with UCA student interns, designers, and fashion Rochelle Minors and Lauren Hunt. Photo: A. Robinson historians. Zandra Rhodes, in conjunction with her Production Manager, Frances Diplock, has personally selected the garments which span her career and feature both stand-out pieces such as the vibrant yellow wool evening coat (a copy of which is in the V&A museum) and her 'dinosaur coat'; as well as hidden gems which have not been seen since their catwalk debut. The project is a collaborative venture between the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) and the Zandra Rhodes Studio and is funded by JISC (2011-2013). Zandra Rhodes trained at one of UCA’s founder colleges, the Medway College of Design, and was made the University’s first Chancellor in 2010. Each of the dresses, from Zandra's first collection in 1969 onwards, have their own unique Style Number, however aside from this the cataloguing was undertaken from scratch.

    The Sewing Workshop Textile Tour with Linda Lee London, England Background: Venues, Events & Artist Tuesday, April 9 – Wednesday, April 17, 2019 London is a cosmopolitan city, full of culture and history. The River Thames snakes through the city and either side you’ll find world-class museums, art galleries, historical buildings including Royal Palaces - it’s been home to the Kings and Queens of England for centuries. Nearly half of the city is green space or open water and its Royal parks are well loved including Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and Richmond Park. The city’s iconic transport system, the London Underground, was opened in 1863 and is the oldest in the world. It is the fastest way to travel across the city to visit some of the 170 museums in the capital. Richmond-upon-Thames, Surrey. You will be based in Richmond-upon- Thames for the Tour staying at The Petersham hotel in Nightingale Lane. The London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames in southwest London, England, forms part of Outer London and is the only London borough on both sides of the River Thames. Richmond has both a tube station and fast overground train service which makes central London easily accessible. Richmond possesses a timeless charm more akin to a village than a town. King Henry VII named Richmond after his favourite Earldom, Richmond in Yorkshire, and the gateway of his magnificent Palace, favoured by Queen Elizabeth 1, still remains. Richmond offers an enticing mix of shops including designer names and small specialist shops. It was a wide selection of bars, cafés and restaurants.
