RaQ's Designs by Černe Chaves

After many years of starting and going well than jumping lifes hurdles and moving and everything else, including self procrastination I have finally decided to just do it and reopen. I started my Label RaQ's back in 2007 when my boys were young and I'd stay up late after they sleep, then I would getup 3 sundays a month and enjoy the day at the local Markets, (Byron Bay, Bangalow and The Channon an

d on Occasions I would also do the Nimbin craft markets. Creating and designing has always come naturally to me and it has always been my go to happy place :). I studied my Bachelors in Applied Design in Branded Fashion at Billy Blue College of Design where i found new love and skills including Digital Marketing, Web Developments, and the specifications and paperwork that goes on behind the scenes of Fashion Houses ie all your Tech Packs and Spec Sheets, Trend research, targeting your demographics, fabric and trim, Illustrations and Post cards/posters oh my G the list goes on and there was a point that I felt like giving up. I was Living away from my children as I had to move to study and working 4-5 days a week and studying full time. WOW it was the biggest and most amazing challenge I gave to myself which is why I just could not give up. After 3 years of studies and graduating with Distinctions i once again procrastinated. TBC Gotta go to work.
