Sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy came from Pasadena, California, to New York in the spring of 2005 with nothing more than a few dresses and coats stuffed in their suitcase. A week after arriving, they had shown their collection, Rodarte, to almost every major fashion-magazine editor and upscale retail buyer. What got them through the door? Tenacity and talent. The Mulleavys pore over every small detail in their smart, meticulous dresses. The sisters have just been asked to design a limited edition collection for the Gap. The collection, named Gap Design Editions, is part of Gap's recently announced partnership with the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund (CVFF), an initiative established to support and encourage new American design talent.
