Our Story
Hi, I'm Sophia, the Founder and Director of RAQ. I'm pictured here with my sister, Nina. She's our Operations Manager, and my right-hand woman.
Like many other busty people, we always struggled to find bikinis that fit and made us feel good.
This is the first and last triangle bikini I ever wore. I'm approx 12 years old here. RIP to my tiny bust. I very quickly grew to an F cup.
Rewind to 2018: I'm on holiday on the Greek island of Ithaca (where my grandmother was born and where I spent many summers growing up) I was tired of wearing a boring hand-me-down bikini from my mum every day. I decided to take matters into my own hands and design the bikini of my dreams.
The brief:
A simple yet supportive top, available in a variety of band and cup sizes, just like a bra.
Finally I could wear a simple, supportive and comfortable bikini!
My mum and sister were also appreciative:
In the years since, we’ve progressively introduced new colours and styles, and have grown our size range to 66 bra sizes!
One of our most exciting moments since launching the brand was our collection with Abbie Chatfield.
In close second was when our mum modeled for us for the first time. What a hottie!
We take great pride in what we have built as a small independent brand, and we love making busty individuals feel happy and confident around the world.
Reach out to us if you have any questions or just want to say hi!
Love, Team RAQ xx
