Rodarte's Fall 2018 haute couture designs revert to the flamboyant and rhythmic motifs of Latin dance wear. From black polka dots on red fabrics to the classic free-flow and layered structural features of flamenco dresses, Rodarte truly embraces Latin culture with a playful and modern twist.
Ava Phillippe, Reese Witherspoon's daughter, makes an appearance in the lookbook for Fall 2018 haute couture designs. Featured in a dreamy light pink gown and gorgeously arranged flower corsages and head piece, the 18-year-old makes her debut in fashion.
In a statement, Rodarte's Fall 2018 designers share that its a thrill "to feature women who inspire [them]." Ava is joined in front of the camera by Rowan Blanchard, as well as Danai Gurira, Kim Gordon and a pregnant Kristen Dunst, who is showing off her baby bump in a beautiful white and red embroidered gown.
