A little about me.

I’m Rachel Topping, a Virginia Beach native—hometown to icons like Pharrell and Missy Elliott—so creativity has always been in the air (and maybe even in the water). With over a decade of design experience and five years as an art director, I’ve built my career at the intersection of design, culture, and fashion. I’ve had the opportunity to bring my storytelling and creative vision to entertainment powerhouses like Roc Nation and Complex Magazine and craft beautiful, compelling narratives for fashion brands like Cole Haan, Tamara Mellon, and TOMS Shoes.

I spent part of my career building Nappy Head Club—a fashion and lifestyle brand that has been featured in national campaigns, graced the pages of Vogue and Essence Magazine, and won the hearts of tens of thousands of followers turned customers—and now I’m eager to bring that same creative vision to new opportunities with forward-thinking brands. I’m passionate about crafting visually stunning narratives that push boundaries and connect with audiences in fresh, authentic ways.
