We hope you have been enjoying our series of designer interviews from the winners of our design a dress competition.<\/h3>\n

Are you ready to meet our next winning artist? Allow\u00a0us introduce you to Rakel Blom.<\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: Hi Rakel and thanks so much for taking the time to talk to us. Can you tell us a little bit about your winning design?<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: Of course! It is fun, happy and colourful.\u00a0\"akel-blom-printed-dress\"<\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: What is the inspiration behind the design? Is there a story, which accompanies it?<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: The design is inspired by my love of travel, to experience new things and new cultures. I created a series of prints inspired by the world called “The World Through My Eyes” and this is the print, which is inspired by Africa.<\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: Do you have a website or etsy store, which we can share with our readers?<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: Yes, I started selling my designs about a year ago, which are all full of colour and prints. You can visit my website here: www.rakelblom.com<\/em> or check out my Facebook page: www.facebook.com\/rakelblom<\/em><\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: What do you plan to do with your prizes?<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: I’m going to wear it! I’m just waiting for the right occasion to wear my personalised body con dress.\u00a0\"rakel<\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: If you could design any product on the Bags of Love website<\/strong><\/a>, what would it be and how would you design it?<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: I have always had my eye on the personalised pillow<\/strong><\/a> and duvet covers<\/strong><\/a>…but I also love the personalised deckchair<\/strong><\/a>! It’s brilliant!<\/p>\n

Bags of Love<\/strong>: What product would you like to see on the Bags of Love website<\/strong><\/a>, (if it doesn’t already exist?)<\/p>\n

Rakel<\/strong>: I’m not sure…I was going to say socks, but you already have them! It looks like you have everything.<\/p>\n

Thanks so much Rakel for taking the time to chat to us and we hope you enjoy wearing your stunning custom printed dress!<\/p>\n

Stay tuned for more designer interviews on the Bags of Love blog.<\/p>\n
