If raquette was a person, she/he would be lively, natural, kind and with a good portion of wit. He/she would practice lots of different sports and spend a substantial amount of time outside in nature or at the sea, walk his dog, feed her cats secretly, pick wildflowers for mom and read tons of books at the pool
Raquette is inspired by strong childhood memories. A childhood with lots of physical activities outdoors and playing in the streets with neighbor kids (natural and authentic). Teenage years spent on the tennis court (sporty, casual but chic style). A warm and caring childhood upbringing with family weekend excursions, animals and pets and lots of home-made cooking and baking (kind and genuine). A childhood with summer camping holidays at the Italian Adria throughout all the 80s and most of the 90s (vibrant and colorful 80s mixed with Italian classics)
