When discussing my new blog with my friend Howie, our conversation led us to talk about what designers we were really loving at the moment. Howie and I both concluded that a great design duo to feature in my first Designers To Watch should be Rodarte.
Rodarte is the collection from sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy. With their first collection only 4 years ago in 2005 they have come a long way. While they have always been recognised as one of the most innovative and creative teams out there, their collections for the most part have been viewed as works of art, which after a while left many asking if these two could create an innovative and WEARABLE ready to wear collection. Well with their Spring/Summer '09 collection they made huge strides with a truly beautiful collection!
These two looks are from their S/S '09 collection. And while I have to say I was not a fan of the leggings throughout the collection, overall it was fantastic. The first look is currently featured in Vogue and the second look is my favorite piece from the collection. The dress has amazing movement and is just stunning.
