As they rifle through sky-high piles of discarded clothing and textiles at the Myrorna warehouse (one of their main second-hand clothing suppliers) the designers muse on the joys of thrifting – a discipline so synonymous with their brand Rave Review.

“To see so much second-hand textiles is of course a dream for us vintage and upcycling lovers,” says Bergqvist, a graduate of Stockholm’s celebrated design school, Beckmans. “It could look like nothing when you see how they’re sorting it but then you can just imagine.” Her partner Schück is also a former student of the school, where the design duo first met. “We tend to look for retro prints like flowers, checks and stripes,” Schück adds. “The more colour, the more character it has, the better.”

The duo talk through the dress they made exclusively for Vogue Scandinavia – a single piece with the task of encapsulating the brand’s ethos. The dress, a gorgeous strapless number with a constructed bodice and an endless train, is constructed from seven kilts, handpicked from a sea of discarded clothing in the SWD warehouse – Rave Review’s only supply partner outside of Sweden, located in a small suburban town in England’s greater Manchester.

“The idea for the dress was to work with wool, upcycled from kilts from Scotland,” explains Bergqvist. “It’s actually seven kilts used to make this dress.” Silver ring details at the waist and a crotch-high slit, which recalls Angelina Jolie’s 2012 Versace Oscars' gown, brings the sort of sly sex appeal that has become Rave Review’s signature. “It’s combined with metal rings to add something bling and something sharp to it,” Bergqvist adds.

“To put these textiles in a new light and in a new context, that’s what we love.”
