Rachel Comey is a New York-based womenswear designer who has become a household name in the creative class of American fashion. Initially denying her interest in fashion, Comey opted to collaborate with friends on creative projects across art, costume and set design. Her first foray into fashion involved designing menswear which she then moved into designing accessories for women, and then clothing. Intended for modern and intelligent women, her collections are known for featuring custom textiles, modern silhouettes and sought-after footwear.
