Rachel Comey is a New York based designer, who in 2001 started a menswear
collection inspired by the young music scene in New York. Comey soon added womenswear to her portfolio, where the collections became known for their
artful custom prints, graceful modern silhouettes, a hand craftsmanship, and
carefully chosen materials. Originally from Hartford, Connecticut, Comey graduated from the University
of Vermont as an art major with a focus on sculpture.Comey's following is largely due to word of
mouth, and by appealing to the intelligence and independence of her customers,
who appreciate the thoughtful details and off beat charm manifested in her
designs. Comey is a member of the CFDA, and splits her time between NYC and her
converted-laundromat home near a beach on Long Island's North Fork.
