Born to a family of artists, Raquel Allegra has always considered herself creative, and fashion had always been an outlet for that creativity. Finding her unique start by cleverly recycling shirts from the Los Angeles County Prison System, Allegra found fans of her work in celebrities like Kate Moss and Mary-Kate Olsen, and thus launched her eponymous brand in 2009. Expanding her catalogue to carry more fabrics and materials, Allegra continues to put craftsmanship and creative artistry at the forefront. From knits to trousers and hand-dyed fabrics, Raquel Allegra crafts everyday wear for every kind of strong women, and achieving that with sustainability.
