‘Expats’ actress Ji-young Yoo attended the 2024 Gotham TV Awards held at Cipriani 25 Broadway in New York City, exuding elegance and nostalgia in a stunning Rodarte Fall 2023 dress.
As someone who appreciates intricate knitwork (as my mother is an avid knitter), the design of this dress is particularly captivating, blending mohair, alpaca, and silk yarns to create a piece with remarkable depth and texture.
The dress, with its dramatic bell sleeves, evokes a ‘Bride of Dracula’ vibe, showcasing the distinctive and dramatic style that Rodarte is known for.
While some fashion enthusiasts might see a continuation of Mark Fast’s influence, it’s important to remember that cobweb knits have been a Rodarte signature since their Fall 2008 collection.
The Mulleavy sisters’ ability to revive and reinterpret these nostalgic knit designs is truly commendable.
It’s a pity we haven’t seen more of these exquisite knits from the Fall 2023 collection, as they bring a delightful touch of retro charm and intricate craftsmanship to the red carpet.
