Hi There
I'm Anj, the driving force and face of RAPT. For me dressing and styling well makes me more confident, more ready to take on every day and I want every woman to feel that empowerment. It is so easy to lose your style, get overwhelmed by what to put with what or even just finding clothes that suit and fit you. Also I like to wear fabrics that breath and that keep me comfortable, I am in my 40s and I don't need anything that makes me hotter thank you haha!
My experiece has been that the fashion scene is filled with alot of beautiful women with the perfect figure who would look good in anything but if you're like me and you're an every day woman you are not inspired by that. You want to see how it will look on women like you, and how to style it to hide all those bits we don't like to show off. As a curvy girl this is no easy task with the fashion industry filled with ill fitting garments that are too short in the front, fit wrong or cling. As the buyer for RAPT I seek out garments for all womrn including bigger sizes with better fits and showcase in our Auckland store the best of what I find, catering for petite through to curve sizes.
I try each season to style looks and try on our range and will post it here for you to see. I generally wear a 18-20 although as we know sizing is all over the show and I have some fashion in my wardrobe that is a 14 and some that is a 24. Its so hard to know your size right?! I am hoping by trying garments on you will get a feel for how they might fit for you. And if in doubt call the store 09 2711350, we are open 7 days with 2 late nights and the team are more than happy to helpand measure and help you get it right!
For more detailed info follow our Facebook & Instagram Pages as I regularly post on there with outfits and inspo! Get your fashion groove on with our wonderful team instore too as we are located at the Botany Town Centre and our lovely team love working with women to find their style and make them feel great!
