The Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective is a highly skilled team located at the Rolls-Royce headquarters in Goodwood, England, consisting of engineers, designers, and craftspeople. Each year, they create unique custom vehicles for the most exclusive clients of the carmaker worldwide. Despite working mostly from home in 2020, the Collective managed to produce some of the most stunning designs ever seen from Rolls-Royce. The company noted a significant increase in commissions for its Bespoke division compared to the previous year, with a greater emphasis on personalized details for each vehicle.
Below are some notable examples of the extraordinary designs crafted by the Bespoke Collective at Rolls-Royce.
PHANTOM ‘IRIDESCENT OPULENCE’
The Phantom ‘Iridescent Opulence’ features a hermetically sealed Gallery that allows for the incorporation of natural materials in a groundbreaking way. In partnership with Swiss materials specialist Nature Squared, this design showcases over 3,000 sustainably sourced iridescent tail feathers individually shaped and sewn onto a fabric, creating a stunning artwork that radiates from the shimmering Mother of Pearl casing surrounding the clock at the core of the gallery. The interior is further adorned with Bespoke embroidery and silver inlays, enhancing the luxurious feel of the vehicle.
THE STEED PHANTOM EXTENDED
The Phantom Extended model boasts intricate Bespoke embroideries of a stallion on the rear interior doors. The embroidery design symbolizes strength and forward momentum, as envisioned by a Chinese client who provided a clear vision that was impeccably brought to life by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Design Collective.
‘NEON NIGHTS’ COLOR TRILOGY
A limited run of just four vehicles for each color, the ‘Neon Nights’ palette developed by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective features three vibrant hues inspired by elements of the natural world. From Lime Rock Green resembling the Australian green tree frog, to Eagle Rock Red mimicking the flowers of the ‘Ohi‘a lehua tree in Hawaii, and Mirabeau Blue inspired by the exotic Rhetus periander butterfly from Central and South America, these colors add a dynamic touch to the vehicles.
WRAITH ‘INSPIRED BY EARTH’
The Wraith ‘Inspired By Earth’ design draws inspiration from the Solar System and Earth as seen from space. With a Royal Blue exterior symbolizing the Earth’s water bodies, intricate air-brushed bonnet artwork depicting the Middle Eastern region from a satellite view, and bespoke detailing reflecting various planetary elements, this design captures the essence of our planet in a luxurious and artistic manner.
WRAITH KRYPTOS COLLECTION
The Wraith Kryptos Collection features a cipher hidden within its bespoke detailing for a unique decoding experience. Limited to only 50 cars, this collection invites clients to decipher messages found within the vehicle’s interior and exterior elements, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to the design.
DAWN SILVER BULLET COLLECTION
The Dawn Silver Bullet Collection stands out with its Aero Cowling and Brewster Silver Paint, paying tribute to Rolls-Royce’s historic trials cars. Limited to just 50 examples globally, this two-seat roadster configuration with the Aero Cowling exudes speed and sophistication, embodying a sense of elegance and performance.
SPORTIVE COLLECTION
The Sportive Collection comprises two Black Badge Dawns and nine Black Badge Wraiths commissioned for the United Arab Emirates. Featuring bold color combinations, technical fiber fascia intertwined with colored weaves, hand-painted coachlines, and unique bespoke details such as woven-leather door panniers, this collection embodies the expressive and assertive nature of the Black Badge models.
ARCTIC WHITE AND HOTSPUR RED PHANTOM
Customized for a Rolls-Royce collector in Texas, this contemporary Phantom sports an Arctic White exterior with striking Hotspur Red accents throughout, creating a bold and vibrant interior color scheme. The ‘Lakeshore Aurora’ Gallery, designed by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective, further enhances the luxurious feel of the vehicle.
