The Force Was With Rodarte

The rest of the collection was inspired by the way Kate and Laura Mulleavy dressed as children in the 80s in California, which was evident in a red wool jersey turtleneck paired with caramel silk chiffon pleated pants, and a hand-knit sleeveless sweater embellished with a cluster of crocheted florettes, and a grown-up version of a sweat pant in the form of a wool jersey drawstring pant.

They must have also worn a lot of glitter as children because the pair put out a series of jewel-toned glitter coats with shearling collars, sparkly berets, and shawls. A number of ethereal pieces also strided out on the runway as delicate ocre silk chiffon, butterfly-sleeve dress sprinkled with Swarovski crystals, a blue silk chiffon gown, and a mustard silk chiffon jumpsuit. The striped lace and sequined gowns were also standouts.

The Mulleavys definitely know how to elevate an 80s childhood and a legendary, yet geeky sci-fi film into high fashion, and they pulled it off quite well.
