Designer Spotlight: Katy Rodriguez

Drama, luxury and jewel tones are words to describe Katy Rodriguez's Fall collection.

Drama, luxury and jewel tones are words to describe Katy Rodriguez's Fall collection. But there's a lot more to this designer than that...

Born and raised in San Francisco, Katy Rodriguez initially made her mark in 1996 as co-founder of designer vintage store, Resurrection. With business partner Mark Haddawy, she also collaborated on a collection of their own called 'caitie et marc.'

Known for her abilities to cultivate the best vintage from around the world, Rodriguez has also been recognized by Vogue on its annual Best Dressed List. In 2005, Rodriguez struck out on her own, debuting her eponymous collection. Chosen as one of Gen Art’s “Fresh Faces,” Rodriguez showed her Spring 2007 collection at the Gen Art Show in October of 2006. She went on to show her Fall 2007 collection at the Gramercy Park Hotel at an intimate gathering of celebrity clients and editors.

Back to the drama, luxury and jewel tones. Her entire Fall collection can be found here and prices begin at $750.
