Rachel Comey's eponymous label has fast become the uniform of choice for cool downtown girls and New York's creative elite, with its artful custom textiles, graceful modern silhouettes and covetable footwear. Fresh out of art school, Comey moved to New York to pursue a career working as a costume designer for the city's musicians before turning her talents to a small menswear line in 2011. The men's collection was so successful with women that Rachel Comey launched her womenswear and accessory line, now the mainstay of the brand.
