What would a Rodarte fragrance smell like? Chic asked around at the show...

Dakota Fanning:
Grass.

Anna Dello Russo: Sunflowers.

Nicole Phelps: Firey. One of my favorite Rodarte moments was the collection where the shoes lit up like birthday candles.

Susie Bubble: White oleanders and gasoline. I’d call it Juge. How do you spell that? I’d market it with a Polaroid campaign.

Simon Doonan: A bonfire of flowers, called Apocalypse.

Brad Goreski: Sunflowers and outer space. I’d call it Rodarte Spice.

Joe Zee: Arts and crafts.

Mickey Boardman: Something very California. Maybe something red woodsy with a fresh morning mist.

Maria Sharapova: Very sweet. Something out of the rainforest.

Tim Blanks: Prairie wind because it would smell like gauze, tree bark, and buffalo fur. What’s Rodarte backwards? Et Rador! It could be the smell of outer space. It sounds kind of Latin, like “Et tu, Brute?”

Kate Mulleavy: We could describe what it should smell like forever, but you’d walk away wondering what we were talking about...
