Description

Series Four of The Third Act continues with Episode Eight, the original podcast from Auriens, hosted by Catherine Fairweather.

In this inspiring episode, legendary British fashion designer Zandra Rhodes reflects on her extraordinary journey from art college to international acclaim. She recounts the pivotal moment a meeting with Vogue editor Diana Vreeland opened the doors to success in the United States, and shares the story behind founding the Fashion and Textile Museum — a lasting legacy celebrating creativity and design.

With candour and characteristic optimism, Zandra speaks about the role of instinct, resilience and hard work in shaping her career, as well as her refreshing philosophy on ageing and experience:

“I don’t think we should live with regrets. We’ve got to think it was a bad decision and hope that we can regroup to make the right decision.”

A thoughtful and uplifting conversation, this episode explores creativity, courage, and what it truly means to live a life well lived.
