Designer Spotlight: Rene Ropas by Morgan Carson + Win Tickets to The Dollhouse Prom

by Skinnypurse

Rene Ropas

“Be beautiful, be inspired and most of all, be unstoppable”. This is the wish designer Morgan Carson has for the wearers of her collection, Rene Ropas. When I met Morgan at her Belltown boutique press party, I could see that she means these words. Morgan, a petite beauty, is full of the kind of energy that lights up a room. By talking to her you can see she has an intense passion for her company, and a drive to create beautiful clothes in a world where possibilities are endless. She mentioned she wanted to go to work in a place where she could play dress up all day, and she has certainly created that life for herself. But, while dreaming big and being unstoppable, she also manages to keep two feet on the ground with her savvy business sense.

Through the heartbreaking experience of watching her best friend Ashley become sick and pass away from cancer, Morgan decided to pursue her dreams and create a collection of recycled clothing that inspires, and to never give up. She created a collection, had her first fashion show and from that, Rene Ropas was born.

The clothes have a vintage vibe with a modern spin. They are ultra-feminine and fun, a touch whimsical. From retro high-waisted pants, to ruffled neon party dresses, each piece is thoughtfully designed with the wearer in mind. The Rene Ropas boutique is unique in that customers can come in and literally “play dress-up” in the store. You can choose from available items or have her create a custom design. The by appointment only boutique is located at: 2604 Western Ave., Seattle, WA 98121. Email info@reneropas.com to set up a visit.
