RODARTE for & other stories
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Somehow is & Other Stories lately following the big sister´s (brand H&M) footsteps, by making collaborations with various designers and creative. Since the opening its first stores back in 2013, the young brand (which is under the same roof as the big sister H&M) can pride itself with yet really successful collaborations; from Rachel Antonoff and Vika Gazinskaya, to the latest one made with a stylist Ada Kokosar. Spring 2016 will see the launch of a collection in collaboration with a cool US brand, Rodarte.
"With Rodarte's strong co-lab collection we're adding a new LA-infused perspective to our selection and bringing inspiration and ideas to encourage all personal styles, or stories," said Samuel Fernström, managing director of & Other Stories.

vaccarello´s debut collection for VERSUS VERSACE
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We did say it many times and nothing has changed; actually fashion in its schedule-calendar things is getting crazier and crazier. Summer didn´t officially started yet, while many fashion houses are into their pre-fall 2016 season already. We are also one, max two steps away before the S/S2016 menswear´s collections will start. To get even more confused with all seasons and everything (the best way to know in which season are we now, is to look your weather situation) “helped us” Versace. Few days ago the Italian fashion house showcased in London the F/W 2015/2016 collection for Versus Versace; the debut one by Anthony Vaccarello. In total 17 looks, three among them for men, full of Versace dna (and super-pleased that there are no logos and fluos). You can take a look and even buy already the pieces from the collection on their main site.

F/W 2013/2014 // RODARTE / DETAILS / MB NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

FIRST LOOK / THE CURVE OF FORGOTTEN THINGS / RODARTE AND ELLE FANNING COLLABORATION
The young actress appears in a short film called “The Curve of Forgotten Things,” a collaboration between Kate and Laura Mulleavy and director-photographer Todd Cole, with a score by Deerhunter.
Rodarte RTW Fall 2010 / NYCFW Day-07
Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy have become New York’s resident young dream team, and as such face great expectations regarding what their meticulous imaginations will dream up next. For the past few seasons, the sisters have explored a beautifully aggressive vision to a point that set up a critical moment: Move on or risk getting mired in sameness. In a resolute rebuttal to the latter, on Tuesday the Mulleavys showed an exquisite collection full of feminine nomads layered in intricate combinations of delicate versus robust. It had a beguiling lightness. Backstage postshow, Laura said they had been thinking about Juarez, Mexico, border towns and “the idea of sleepwalking and existing between worlds.” Considering the morbid nature of the news out of Juarez these days, such a premise could lend easily to the Mulleavys’ more ominous inclinations. Instead, they worked up a romantic overture defined by delicate colors, glorious knits and yards of traditional Mexican lace — girlish elements grounded in an earthy craftsiness.
There was a soft tribal sensibility to the substantial pilings. Sheer silk pants were worn under wrap skirts and densely woven sweaters that swaddled the body in one example of the lineup’s abundant knitwear. Crocheted cardigans were done in wide-weave webs and skirts cascading with thick marled fringe. Gentle putty hues such as light gray, tawny brown and ivory gave the look a homespun yet sophisticated quality that resonated in ethereal patchwork silk and lace dresses. There, the Mulleavys worked their tattered motif, winding mismatched floral silks in pinks and tea-stained tones, through swaths of lace, with more knit fringe and little strands of pearls as trim. Often, the fabric looked roughly cut from the bolt and draped at random to compose a single, mesmerizing piece, each a marvel of construction. Just as extraordinary as the level of craftsmanship was the fact that for all the lavish details, each garment was inherently wearable, down to the Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte shoes, designed with heels that glowed in the dark to resemble dripping candle wax.
