New York Fashion Week may have looked a little different this year, but that didn’t stop the top brands from serving some of the best Spring/Summer collections we’ve ever seen. One high-end fashion brand, Rodarte, brought romantic California vibes to their presentation. Designed by sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy, the entire shoot feels like stepping into a piece of art, and each elevated shot captures the beauty of the California desert.
Photographed by Daria Kobayashi Ritch and produced by Connect The Dots Inc, the shoot perfectly presents the new ready-to-wear gowns, sweaters and matching sets. The deserted location and unapologetically feminine pieces play to the vibes of the brand, which was unsurprisingly founded in California. With hairstyling by Rachel Lee, glam by Uzo and real florals supplied by Los Angeles florist Joseph Free, each piece is beautifully displayed.
Here are twelve looks from Rodarte’s SS21 line that we can’t stop thinking about.
Blooming Blue
Modeled here by Licett Morillo, this Rodarte collared top paired with matching skirt serves class and fun. Not to mention, the socks paired with strappy heels are giving us major 90’s vibes.
Patterned From Head to Toe
This patterned ensemble is the matching set of our dreams. Model Chloe Tang slays the detailed print, bringing colorful florals to an otherwise muted environment.
Perfectly Pink
Another Rodarte piece we’re obsessing over is this pink sweatshirt worn by Nariah Nicolle. The rose embellishment has us wanting to add real flowers to our everyday looks.
Green Goddess
Model Fernanda Oliveira is a vision in green as she steps into the trees. Her dark, pouty lip perfectly contrasts the light colors of her ‘fit, and we are loving it!
Desert Chic
Ayobami Okekunle stuns in this light pink tulle moment! Embellished with lightly colored roses, the pink dress is playful and sparkly, yet still luxurious.
Ruffled Radiance
This ruffled dress is another piece we’re drooling over! It’s serving some serious Renaissance vibes, and Morillo is killing it.
Sunflower Soul
This golden hour moment with Olivia Forte is what dreams are made of! The pajama chic silks paired with natural glam have us wishing we could look as elegant.
Dorothy Vibes
Another look we can’t get over is this gingham top and skirt on Oliveira. Serving some serious Dorothy vibes, the pop of red florals takes this ensemble to another level.
Into the Woods
This elegant shot is major #GOALS. Modeled again by Nicolle, this look is captivating and full of grace. Not to mention, we are obsessed with the gloves!
Sweatsuit, But Make It Fashion
This floral sweatsuit modeled by Tang looks comfy enough for lounging, but chic enough to wear out on the town. WFM fashion, anyone?
Fit For a Bride
Modeled again by Oliveira, this beaded gown is to die for! This romantic piece is straight out of a fairy tale, and we are here for it.
Rosy Romance
One last rosy moment, this time from Okekunle. The silk dress dazzles in this sunny shot, and we need to add this our closets ASAP.
