Rodarte Won Super Tuesday for Me

WOW. What a gorgeous show Rodarte put on this afternoon. These girls have tons -- and I mean tons -- of talent. They showed swan-like girls with these amazing hair chignons with little beards sticking down the back (you have to see it to understand), wearing the most amazing glittery glamourous fetish shoes (I assume Christian Louboutin, as he was in front row) with impossibly spikey and high heels. The girls looked like spindly insect ballerinas in full, lovely skirts and fantabulous loosely hand-knit dresses that were created with a mess of different textures and yarns. They all wore crazy, half-torn fishnets. Hard to describe but the whole effect was gorgeous and lush. Kind of like as if Swan Lake deconstructed and hippified. I adored it. Kate and Laura Mulleavy have come a long, long way since those homemade woven fabric dresses from their first season. Check out some of the photos (by Caroline Torem Craig).
