Rodarte: Spring 2010 RTW

[dirtylare]

Two ugly American girls imitating Galliano and Alexander McQueen techniques .... PFFFT!

[Mspinkbutterfly4]

How cool!! My last name is Rodarte. I think its awsome :)

[skypup77]

I really dont understand the popularity of Rodarte, to me their collections always look like high-school art projects more than high fashion. The fake tattoos look awful too.

[rvggarcon]

PS Courtney Love is pretty chic now, she's been photographed by Karl Lagerfeld and Hedi Slimane for Vogue.

[newspaperowls]

@rvggarcon courtney have always been chic duuuuuuuuuuuuh

[michalmarczewski]

:) the worst collection i have seen in last three months... just awfull...

true art of fashion is at Jil Sander, Klein and Armani- Rodarte is c r a p !

[Fabouluz0999]

Rodarte is so overrated,

[furcorazon88]

lol i wasnt expected elijah and courtney

[jimmyjk08]

they are always at the Rodarte show!

[BrandonG10]

courtney love looks fucked up

[shitcharles]

she's a wonderful hot mess; I could definitely see her rocking some of those dresses.

[esther1088]

kind of remind me of mummies

[samats5]

Elijah Wood.. a fashion critic/ Rodarte fanatic? Who would've thought :)

[BloomCasey]

nice

[deliciousexquisite]

these girls are amazing

[captaineatyaface]

I just wonder where the hell you would wear some of those outfits if you bought them.

[Gtgoon]

In Rodarte's case it is a really good question. How do they make money? The clothes are amazingly beautiful and directional but the chances of running into these garments on the streets are slim to none.

The issue is that Rodarte don't make fragrances, sunglasses or handbags, the usual cash cows which keep giants such as Dior on their feet. Personally I just hope that they don't succumb to some idiotic commercial crap and just continue to emphasize their amazing line of RTW. Just, how?

[freshfaceex3]

alot of celebs wear rodarte; natalie portman, emma watson, rihanna, kirsten dunst, keira knightley...their stuff is also used in endless amounts of editorials

[Gtgoon]

Yes but I suppose most of those celebs just get to borrow those dresses for red-carpet events. Or are they actually bought? Now please correct me if I'm wrong but aren't most editorial pieces only borrowed for photos as well?

[freshfaceex3]

yeah but the celebs are photographed which generates free publicity which = money and no the stylists for photoshoots do a pull and buy what they want for the shoots & return what they don't want. Frankly i think everyone should dress is rodarte, rick owens,gareth pugh, the world would be so fucking amazing.

[myfriendghost]

i hear that.

[AbbysCorner918]

@Gtgoon borrowed :)

[freshfaceex3]

nyc, paris, london, school, parties, fashion shows, wear whatever u want, when u want...theres no rule that says you cant wear that red rodarte shredded dress to dinner.... fuck that

[yorkandpomona]

wow...amazing....

[funnyfacee]

i liked the incorporation of plaid in these pieces

[amorgens]

coutney love makes no sense at all...

[canarygrl1]

I agree with you too. But I also think that beauty is subjective. I think that for some people it would have been nice for this collection to have some obvious beauty in it, but for others there is no challenge in that. I think it's easy to appreciate something aesthetically pleasing; yet personally I want to embrace the grotesque. I want to find the beauty in something that may be horrifying because it's there. You just have to look deeper, and when you find it you have a new understanding.

[wWeFaN031694]

i don't really like it, i don't even see it s weird beauty, it looks a bit hobo like.

[pattNY]

Not one of my favs but we might have to be at the show to appreciate its aesthetic, sometimes it's too hard to judge by youtubing :)

[MissSLYTV]

Totally agree with you pattNY, I am like mehhhh but again, watching it on a 17" screen may not do justice to their Artcraft!

[bgudmundsson]

wtf is elijah wood doing at a fashion show?

[IdeaRainbow]

Good question.

[57platforms]

he's a friend of kate and laura's.

[canarygrl1]

That's what I was thinking!

[rvggarcon]

@bgudmundsson He's very close friends With Kate and Laura.

[getogatocat]

Sure is ruined, damn.

[banana2510]

hated it.. too trashy! the body art was creative though.

[canarygrl1]

the primitive nature that is still in every human being but is constantly suppressed due to what is deemed right and wrong. It's a beautiful collection because it's truth.

[canarygrl1]

People where are your imaginations?! Fashion isn't about pretty dresses. I like the Rodarte vision. It's a certain exploration. They aren't looking to make women chic, they're exploring the nature of human beings through clothing. Think about it. If you lived in a post apocalyptic world you would have to scrounge for clothing and the norms of society no longer applied. You would look like this! You would have protective elements like spikes and tattoos to ward people off. This is about exploring

[jennysiita]

i like the way you think :)

[canarygrl1]

Thank you :)

[BrandonG10]

finally the little sister talks she never does good for u

[Fabouluz0999]

Obnoxious designers, obv actors who want to be seen as 'cool' will love it. Overrated.

[NinkaPanda]

I know, the designers looked like posers.

I don't see the hype in all this, all the clothing looked as if they came off the wardrobe from a T.V. program.

[ansatsushaz]

one of the designer was so rude...the other one was talking and she just butt in...

[canarygrl1]

They're sisters. They can do that!

[ansatsushaz]

so! just cuz they are sis doesnt mean they can do that. how do you feel if your sister cut you while you were still talking or your daughter is doing that to you? it 's called being rude!

[canarygrl1]

I wouldn't mind. It's called love :)

[SnotRockets55]

Eh. Not really crazy about this collection.

[acraw90]

I love the fact that all the designers are taking their RTW to the edge of couture during this time in the economy. It really makes a difference, and you see people falling in love with fashion all over again

[altboi21]

best collection i have seen...this is just too much i love it...so my style

[patrickattack]

Lmfao did Coutney Love say "pants" instead of hands? This collection was AMAZING.

[quorbyn]

im glad that they didnt go drab which would have been expected cause of the economy so its refreshing to she actual fashion

[imadudetteandyeah]

Wow, very interesting and gorgeous!

[canarygrl1]

Love Rodarte! I love how the woman in this collection. She's of the post apocalypse, a primitive woman who is able to stand on her own. Just beautiful.

[nwadgnikaerb]

you worded it perfectly, i loved this show
