The world of luxury fashion is inherently exclusive but Rodarte and Universal Standard are teaming up to make the entirety of the fashion industry much more inclusive—in terms of both prices and sizing.
Rodarte and Universal Standard collaborated on a four-piece capsule collection with styles that can be purchased for under $250, as well as in sizes for women that range from 00 to 40. In the capsule, consumers will find red, white, black and rose versions of a jumpsuit, blouse, dress and skirt. According to Universal Standard, these designs help to “[bridge] the gap between high fashion and elevated essentials, whimsy and wearability, aspiration and inspiration,” offering practical yet fashionable, high-end styles for all.
