Meet Raquel Macias
- From Personal Healing to Personal Styling - Raquel always believed that style is more than just clothing—it’s a language, an armor, and a form of self-expression. From a young age, she was captivated by fashion’s ability to transform not just an appearance but a mindset. As a personal stylist in Orange County with over 15 years of experience, she helps discerning clients refine their wardrobes with modern, investment-worthy pieces that exude confidence and individuality. “A fashion stylist and image consultant, Raquel Macias’ eye for style has taken her around the world. After graduating from Portugal’s Lisbon Fashion School, she worked closely with Cosmopolitan Portugal, celebrity clients, photographers, and more. But it was the work she did with everyday women that fulfilled her most. “Watching my clients thrive in life, with style, is my biggest motivation,” says Macias, a South Coast Plaza elite styling team member. “My recent role as a South Coast Plaza stylist has been an exciting and rewarding new avenue on both a personal and professional level.” -As seen in Modern Luxury Riviera Magazine, OC. Raquel’s path into styling is rooted in resilience. Before launching her career, she spent seven years navigating health challenges, including cancer, anemia, and fibroids. Style became her anchor— “it gave me control and a renewed sense of identity”. That experience shaped her belief that personal style can be deeply empowering, and she brings that mindset into every client relationship. Originally from Europe, Raquel now offers a personalized and highly exclusive styling experience at South Coast Plaza—one of the world’s premier luxury shopping destinations. Her clients, from busy professionals to global travelers, rely on her to curate wardrobes that blend timeless sophistication with modern elegance.
