You Luke Beautiful: Rodarte’s NYFW Star Wars Inspired Dresses

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...Oh OK, not too long ago, on a catwalk in New York City.Rodarte fashion designer duo, Kate and Laura Mulleavy presented their new collection on Tuesday at New York Fashion, and the grand finale pieces were absolutely out of this world! The Mulleavy sisters founded their fashion line in 2005 and Rodarte has since gone from strength to strength, with celebrity clients including Cate Blanchett and Keira Knightley; however, their Fall 2014 collection is by far their most inventive and show-stopping collection yet.

Including the Star Wars dresses, the Rodarte New York Fashion Week show was a huge success. The designers’ had aimed for their line to have a hint of childhood but with an ultimately grown up feel. Sadly, the movie inspired dresses won’t be for sale but will be available for photography shoots and will hopefully be seen on exhibition.

The new Star Wars film, Star Wars: Episode VII, is due for release in December 2015 and apparently features the original cast, including Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, who will be reprising their roles.
