Z is for Zandra

I'm obviously going through an "artistically patterned dress" phase...how else to explain yesterday's slice of heaven from Tsumori Chisato and today's offering from Zandra Rhodes? Rhodes' 1970's shift dress is hand painted in bronze, silver, and gold, embellished with rhinestones and gold pailettes, and absolutely gorgeous.

Though the temptation would be to save it for "special occasions" I'd love to just wear the dress in an "oh, this old thing" kind of way...
