Fashion – Kansas City

My name is Rachel Pollak, and I am the Creative Director and Fashion Designer for Rachel Pollak Designs. I design fashion for the modern women looking for wearable statement looks. I began to develop an interest in art at a very young age. As a two year old, I began to draw daily. I was drawing distinctive facial features, fingers, toes, and buttons on clothing. This love of drawing evolved into the love for more 3D art such as apparel design. Fashion for me was a really fun way to express myself, so I began studying fashion design at Johnson County Community College in my junior year of high school. In the summer of 2017, I graduated JCCC with an Apparel Design and Technology AAS degree with a mission to start my own line. I participated in the annual JCCC Fashion show in 2016 and won 1st place with my line “Feeling Good,” and third place in 2017 with my line “Striking.” I have shown three times now with KCFW in the S/S 2018, F/W 2018, and S/S 2019 shows. I have also show during NYFW with my F/W 2018 couture collection “Uptown Goddess.” I use my knowledge and creative energy to design looks that are new and different, yet very wearable. #Overdressedcasual. I can’t wait to be part of Raw, so I can show my style, vision, and art to a larger audience. Everything is made as locally and as high quality as possible.
