Rachel Comey
Born outside of Hartford, Connecticut, Rachel Comey attended the University of Vermont as an art major with a focus on sculpture. After college, Comey moved to New York City to further pursue opportunities in the arts. Her earliest efforts in fashion came as costume designer for bands in the burgeoning downtown music scene, earning her a place in the 2001 Whitney Biennial.
Inspired by that same arts scene, Comey launched her first eponymous collection of menswear. Thanks to strong word of mouth, the collection proved a success, and she began to develop a loyal following. By 2004 Rachel Comey had added womenswear and footwear to her expanding business. The women's collection quickly took off and developed its own grassroots following among New Yorks creative elite. Her collections became known for artful custom textiles, graceful modern silhouettes, and covetable footwear. Her work is said to be designed for real women, like herself, with strong opinions, big aspirations, and a view to the world that is at once radical and romantic. "Ms. Comey has long had a reputation for going her own way and for being inventive...” said Cathy Horyn in a recent New York Times article featuring Comey’s Spring/Summer 2014 show. Rachel Comey is a member of the CFDA, and splits her time between NYC and her converted-laundromat home on Long Island's North Fork.
All woven garments are made locally in midtown Manhattan while footwear and knitwear is made in Portugal, Spain, and Peru. |
