RaQ’s Designs

I had graphic design for tee shirts done by RaQs Designs. It was completed within very short hours of meeting her. Prompt & efficient and beyond standard service to help me meet my deadline.

Raquel is not only an uniquely amazing and creative designer she is also an outstanding woman. I feel blessed to know her and lucky enough to see her evolve into an incredible artist. Everything she works on weather it be simple alterations or some of her swanky and stylish one off creations is done with the minutest attention to detail, quality of the old school tailors and seamstresses and above all made to last. I would feel confident she could tackle the most demanding and challenging of needs, fabrics or styles. Thank you for the 1st class work you blessed me with and I look forward to working with you on many more creative ventures!Arielle xx

Raquel did my wedding alterations and I am so impressed with her work. Not only was she professional, friendly but she also had it done with plenty of time to spare which stopped me stressing!She really listened to my needs and made sure it fitted perfectlyHighly recommend her for any dress alterations or designing and creating any outfits. She really has a big passion for what she does and so thankful!

I had a designer skirt that was too big, Raquel measured me and pinned the skirt as required. She altered it perfectly! I certainly gave her a tricky task as I wanted a few things altered, she was great and informed me how she was going to do it. Very professional and informative!

I had the pleasure of doing catwalk modeling for Raq's about 17 years ago and since then I have had some of my favourite clothing items copied , fixed and modified by Raq's and they are all still in great condition . As far as l know she can make anything from swimwear to ball gowns and even furniture fabric I would recommend Raq's to anyone in a heart beat . I have quite a few of her exclusive designs in my wardrobe , love them . Cinti x

Raqs is AMAZING! Love rocking her unique funky designs. She has also helped alter some basic pieces I had into super funky one of a kind statement pieces.I travel 2 hours to get to her but it’s worth the drive!

Raquel Cerne Chaves is one of the most brilliant and gifted designers I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Her concept for her work is incredibly unique and focuses on the individual’s desire to be different and true to themselves and their worth. Raquel works with only the best of materials to create clothing that is one of a kind. She prides herself on her ability to create through her many inspirations while putting every ounce of blood sweat tears and LOVE she has into her work and that is what makes her and her designs so special. Take a look at what she’s achieved and place an order with her if you see your hearts desire in her designs or work with her to create something that unique for yourself. You won’t regret it.

Raquel restored a dress I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to. I’m very happy and satisfied with the outcome. Raquel gives extra attention to detail and she’s very responsive and professional. I definitely recommend!

Cant speak highly enough of Raquel's expertise. I have one of a kind Tailored 1950's Dress that I wore for years, I had grew out of it but wanted to re-design/replicate. I recently moved to the Gold Coast & was recommended from a dear friend. On approaching Raquel with the idea she immediatly took interest into the historical significance of the period & the aestheticness of this time & showed great respect for the craftman ship of the original construction & took the time to research & source suitable material & delivered a Custom replica of the dress. She was prompt with communication & updated with progress, Im very happy with finished product, she not only replicated original design but made it tailored to fit perfectly.
