Cult Film-Inspired Fashion Collections

Rodarte Draws Inspiration from Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

Rodarte has launched a capsule collection in collaboration with the upcoming film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. The new designs draw inspiration from both the original 1988 movie and its sequel.

The Rodarte x Beetlejuice Beetlejuice capsule includes tie-dye sweatshirts and t-shirts featuring graphics from Beetlejuice: The Animated Series, as well as dresses and other apparel that reflect the film’s distinctive aesthetic. The collection is characterized by its references to the film's iconic imagery, including black-and-white stripes and burgundy tones, with designs that echo both the characters' costumes and notable set pieces from the movie.

The accompanying fashion campaign was photographed by Todd Cole and features models in scenes that mimic the original film's memorable dinner scene. Available items range from $195 for a t-shirt to $2,990 for a silk crepe gown. v
