When I met Sonia Rakchaev and commented on how much I loved her beautiful knit circle scarf, and she told me that she’d made it, I wasn’t the least bit surprised. I often find myself drawn to our city’s creative types when I’m out shooting, and Rakchaev, the designer behind urbanorchard, was no exception.  Her knitwear line is intriguing, funky and impeccably constructed—much like Rakchaev herself.  Rakchaev’s look is colourful and very much at ease. Her lovely accessories effortlessly enhance a simple denim shirt dress and funky boots. Some of her necklaces were designed and made by a friend from London and she added one of her own scarf designs as the cherry on top.
