Raquel
Rodriguez

Raquel Rodriguez is a Melbourne based designer who creates extravagant and eye catching garments using a combination of innovative and traditional techniques. In her most recent collections she combines unlikely textiles and crafts to produce inflatable latex accessories that exaggerate and transform the silhouettes of her garments. The garments themselves take on silhouettes that are often oversized and voluminous. Raquel uses fashion influences from decades past combined with a penchant for anomaly, building an unlikely story around each piece. Each item is designed with the intention of creating beautiful, yet daring, items of clothing that encourage the wearer to feel confident, elegant and powerful.
