Since their fall 2018 season, Rodarte designers Kate and Laura Mulleavy have regularly used their look books as mini movies. The duo is known to cast Hollywood\u2019s finest to model their latest collections. Some famous models who have slipped into their clothes include Grimes, Kirsten Dunst, Chloe x Halle, Yalitza Aparicio, and Gabrielle Union (to name a few). When it came time to cast their new fall 2022 collection then, the pair only wanted to continue this starry energy\u2014and this time around they transformed an exciting mix of actors, singers, dancers, and directors into whimsical ballerinas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the Mulleavy sisters, the prospect of casting the right people in their clothes is always just as exciting as the design process itself. \u201cWhen we do a project like this, it combines the two different aspects of who we are creatively<\/em>,\u201d says Kate. \u201cObviously we\u2019re designers, but who we cast in the collection also reflects who we are as directors<\/em>.\u201d (Notably, the duo directed Kirsten Dunst in the 2017 film\u00a0Woodshock<\/em>.) The new fall look book was shot over five days and sees appearances from an impressive range of talent, including Charli XCX, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Natasha Lyonne, Lana Condor, Marlee Matlin, and Janicza Bravo, among others. \u201cWe look for people that inspire us and that we can artistically create with<\/em>,\u201d says Kate. \u201cWe approach it in terms of storytelling\u2014looking for people that will bring the world that we\u2019re imagining to life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Rodarte\u2019s\u00a0fall 2022 world\u00a0was centered around the idea of the modern-day ballerina\u2014a spirit that\u2019s always been present within the label, especially given its signature tulle gowns. (Lest we not forget, the pair also famously designed the costumes worn by Natalie Portman in\u00a0Black Swan<\/em>.) \u201cWe were thinking about things that were a part of Rodarte and in our DNA,<\/em>\u201d says Laura. \u201cWe wanted to play with [ballerina] silhouettes and a soft pastel color palette<\/em>.\u201d The design duo had the all-star cast transform into ballerina dancers for a day\u2014practicing their best poses with toe points, extensions, and all. \u201cIt was amazing to see how everyone took the inspiration that we had and not only made it their own but took it further<\/em>,\u201d says Kate.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

One of the first people Kate and Laura cast for the project was actor Taylour Paige, the\u00a0Zola<\/em>\u00a0star who has a background in ballet dancing. From there, the duo expanded their horizons and reached out to anyone who\u2019s been inspiring them recently. \u201cSo many of the people that we worked with are multitalented<\/em>,\u201d says Kate. \u201cSomeone like Natasha Lyonne, who wrote her own TV show and works as an actor, director, writer, and producer<\/em>.\u201d Another act that caught their eye was the teenage punk girl group\u00a0the Linda Lindas. \u201cWe\u2019re<\/em> such huge fans,\u201d says Laura. \u201cThe energy that they have is infectious. You can\u2019t help but want to continue to watch them<\/em>.\u201d One of their favorite parts was pairing the right look with each talent. Some stars like Reinhart embraced a maximalist pink tulle cape, while Joey King went more subtle in a white gown with black lace detailing. \u201cIt was fun to treat each look as a mini celebration<\/em>,\u201d says Laura. \u201cIt definitely keeps the energy of the day going, to constantly have a new person to meet and a new character to portray<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Given it\u2019s now becoming a signature Rodarte move to cast a star-studded roster of talent in its collections, the designers say you can expect the seasons to follow suit. \u201cIt\u2019s here to stay\u2014it\u2019s fun that people notice it and talk about it in a different way than a runway show<\/em>,\u201d says Laura. For Kate, wrangling the one-of-a-kind crew is always the most fun challenge to pull off. \u201cIt\u2019s always hard to leave the set behind<\/em>,\u201d she says. \u201cYou\u2019re sad to leave everyone because you\u2019ve enjoyed working together so much. A project like this shows how much people believe in creativity and artistry<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
