Rodarte used Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth), Grimes, Kirsten Dunst and other non models to showcase their Fall 2018 collection.
Los Angeles based fashion label Rodarte is the brainchild of sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy. For the Fall 2018 collection the designer duo skipped the runway in favor of a portrait portfolio starring female musicians and actresses. The new collection is modeled by Kim Gordon from Sonic Youth, Grimes, a very pregnant Kirsten Dunst, Reese Witherspoon’s daughter Ava Phillippe and many more.
Rodarte Fall 2018 Collection
The Fall 2018 collection is less casual than their former looks. Photography for the portrait portfolio was done by Autumn de Wilde, and styling was by Shirley Kurata and Ashley Furnival.
Legendary rock vocalist and guitarist Kim Gordon wears the Leopard Print Silk Chiffon Ensemble.
Canadian singer-songwriter and producer Grimes is wearing the Floral Tulle Ensemble. Shown at the top, Dunst used the occasion to reveal her pregnancy to the general public. Can you tell she’s expecting?
Who Are the Mullevy Sisters?
The Mullevy sisters are designers, Berkeley alumni and film producers. Dunst played the lead in their 2017 debut Woodshock about a women who smokes a cannabinoid drug and goes on a surrealistic trip. It was given 4.4/10 stars on IMDB and a score of 20% on Rotten Tomatoes. Watch the official trailer.
Rodarte Online Store
The Rodarte online store consists of comfy sweats, jewelry, leather shoes and gloves.
For example the Red LA Embroidery Cropped Sweatshirt ($288) is made in the USA from 80% cotton. The crop top has the Rodarte logo on the front, and the back says Los Angeles.
That crewneck would look amazing with the Red Studded Embossed Leather Bootie ($1,242).
