Redefining Streetwear Through Upcycling

Welcome to RAGZ, a streetwear brand born out of a deep passion for both fashion and sustainability. Our story is one of creativity, conscious design, and a commitment to the environment. RAGZ is more than just a brand; it's a movement, an embodiment of Ema Gomes' vision, inspired by Hip-Hop culture and driven by a mission to eliminate waste from fashion.

Founder

RAGZ was founded by Ema Gomes, a designer with a Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design and a profound appreciation for the arts. Ema's journey into sustainable fashion began with her studies in textile art at António Arroio's School in Lisbon, where she developed a deep understanding of the intricate world of fabrics and threads. She then took a Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design at Faculty of Arquitecture in Lisbon.

Ema's passion for sustainable fashion led her to create RAGZ, a brand that upholds her commitment to zero waste in fashion. Her unique perspective, honed by her educational background, continues to shape every piece produced by RAGZ.

She personally does every step of the design and production herself. The dedication to sustainability ensures that nothing goes to waste; every scrap of fabric and thread is thoughtfully repurposed, a testament to a commitment to zero waste fashion.

Our Inspiration: Hip-Hop Culture

Ema draws her inspiration from the vibrant and influential world of Hip-Hop culture. This movement, characterized by its creativity, self-expression, and community, serves as the driving force behind RAGZ's unique designs. Each piece embodies the spirit of Hip-Hop, paying homage to its history while pushing the boundaries of sustainable fashion.
