Rosetta Getty’s resort collection began with an art-filled memory. “This collection started with a studio visit with my friend Analia Saban, who’s an artist. She took me to Gemini G.E.L. in Los Angeles; it’s this amazing place that makes all the prints, so like John Baldessari, Ed Ruscha… whoever wants to work in that medium, they go there,” she recalled on a recent afternoon. “I saw this beautiful Ellsworth Kelly red [print], it’s very minimal, but the red gives it so much energy and it’s just so strong. That was the beginning. Exploring the simple, minimal, empty space that color comes into and gives real presence. Given everything going on in the world, I thought it was a good time to do that.”
And so this season, her lookbook follows a simple narrative arc: beginning with an off-white sweater dress with an asymmetrical hem that lands somewhere around the mid-calf, worn over a long silver sequined dress, and ending with a bold red satin caftan dress with a handkerchief hem. In between, Getty ventured into slightly more femme territory than usual with white poplin skirts and dresses with a singular ruffle embellishment, or a wrap dress in a subtle pastel plaid interlock. These efforts were grounded by stricter silhouettes like bodycon strapless dresses in plonge leather,
voluminous denim trousers, and a little shearling vest that topped off a loose wrap skirt. “We just want to keep things simple,” Getty noted.
