Iconic

Brought to you by Penguin.

Dame Zandra Rhodes has spent her life rallying against what was expected of her, both as a designer and a woman. Often perceived as too bold for the mainstream, she fought for creativity and individuality, and continues to achieve both in everything she does.

In this insightful memoir, Zandra shares her life story for the first time. Told through a variety of mementos and curiosities collected over the course of her eight decades, it is a vibrant account filled with rockstars and royalty, of life-changing friendships with legends like Diana Vreeland and Karl Lagerfeld, alongside poignant reflections on her personal triumphs and tragedies, as well as the fears, sacrifices and pressures that come with being an era-defining designer.

Capturing the rich and unexpected life of a British icon, this memoir explores what it is to defy the norm.
