Raphaella Godoy is an artist from Mexico City from an unconventional family of painters, musicians, and performers. Her designs have been described as new punk and alternative, which include different textiles, mediums, and techniques. She’s completely self-taught and always experimenting with new styles, not particularly sticking to any specific aesthetic. She’s actually always had a hard time describing her style, as it’s constantly changing, evolving, and growing. Sometimes goth, sometimes girly, always weird. Raphaella is a one-woman show behind a slow fashion brand that makes new pieces and uses sustainable practices like upcycling, incorporating old scraps and materials to give things a new life. Inspired by her Mexican roots, the macabre, the unconventional, varying subcultures, and the influential female figures in her life—like her great-grandmother Aurora Reyes, known as the first female muralist in Mexico, and her other grandmother’s devotion to Catholicism and art. A fusion of art and fashion. You’ll see this all in her statement pieces with their one-of-a-kind, maximalist, fuck-the-system campiness.
