About Us
Founded by Sophia Argyropoulos in 2017, RAQ is an independent Melbourne-based brand specialising in bikinis for D-J cups in a variety of colours and supportive styles.
I've had F cups for as long as I can remember, and before I started RAQ, shopping for swimwear was a soul-destroying experience. I'm sure many of you can relate!
That's why I started RAQ. I'm on a mission to help busty people like us feel confident and comfortable, one bikini at a time.

The island of Ithaca – Where it all started
It's where my grandmother was born and where I first came up with the idea for RAQ. I've been going there since I was five years old.
Our Story
Hi, I'm Sophia, the Founder and Director of RAQ. I'm pictured here with my sister, Nina, who is our Operations Manager and my right-hand woman.
Like many people with larger busts, we always struggled to find bikinis that fit and made us feel good. The idea for RAQ was born in 2018 while I was on holiday in Greece with my family. Fed up with wearing a dull 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.
My goal was to create a simple yet supportive top, available in a variety of band and cup sizes, just like a bra. Finally, I could wear a bikini that was simple, supportive, and comfortable!
Since then, we have progressively introduced new colors and styles, expanding our size range to 66 bra sizes. We take great pride in what we have built as a small independent brand, and we love helping busty individuals feel happy and confident around the world.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or just want to say hi!
Love,
Team RAQ xx
