At the young age of 24, New York Fashion designer Rebecca Turbow has been featured in numerous national magazines and newspapers. Her work first gained recognition through her stylish public personae of exclusively wearing her own turquoise and white ensembles.

Within her idiosyncratic and meticulously crafted designs, she works with the multifaceted concept of "safety." She finds inspiration in clothing's ability to make one feel both physically and emotionally safe, secure, and comfortable. Through exaggeration and humor, her pieces emphasize different areas of the body that need protection from the world.

By contrasting soft and sturdy fabrics with simple shapes and detailed craftsmanship, Turbow produces a feeling of comfort within her highly innovative clothing. Her pieces recall the futuristic and geometric shapes like that of sixties designers Andres Courrèges and Rudi Gernreich; however, through her strategic use of color, textile design, quilting, and obsessively intricate topstitching, Turbow's clothing quietly carves out its own unique place.
