do you want to destroy my sweater?

Laura and Kate! The Mulleavy sisters! A capsule collection! New York City! Hand knit! CFDA award!

These are the words that have been on a constant rotation in the fashion world since 2005. Tired yet? Well here's more.

I know that I'm not a late, breaking news reporter, but I love the tattered look of Rodarte's knits. So, apparently, does everyone else. From  Britain's Topshop, Sweden's H&M, to Canada's Aritzia, sweaters inspired by the Mulleavys are seen all over this fall.

Again with the sweaters, they really tied the collection together with such spiderweb-like stitches. Taking inspiration from their 'obsession' with horror films, the fall 2008 collection took on a slasher-chic esthetic.
