If someone were to costume design a sci-fi ballerina flick, the result might be something like Rodarte's Fall 2008 collection. Tattered loosely-knit fishnets, super studded gloves and Louboutin heels, and Degas-inspired tutus: they were all there.
The sisters Mulleavy have come a long way in a few seasons, and this time around presented a spectacle of ghostly alien girls decked out in everything from a highlighter-green chiffon dress to a red and black yarn skirt. As far as being wearable or affordable, I'm not sure either applies to the collection, but it is definitely beautiful and whimsical — the two things Rodarte does best.
Stay tuned for my interview with one of the designer sisters!
