Rabuka admits that fashion designing was always a hobby, she loved sketching, putting pieces together while growing up.

During her international travels she recognised her dream of designing her own line. 

FJFW 2009 was her launching pad and she hasn’t looked back since. Growing her business has been her key focus.

Rabuka said inspiration is found in her family and what’s around her in terms of nature and the environment.

Ana Rabuka originally from the Village Vuna on the beautiful island of Taveuni is the owner of STYLOSOPHY Fiji Creations.

During her international travels she recognised her dream of designing her own line. 

Coconut Wireless is a Pacific Apparel street urban brand with its headquarters in the exotic islands of Fiji. 

Coconut Wireless began as a t-shirt line by Donna Whippy, who got approached by Fiji Fashion Week Director Ellen Whippy-Knight in Sept, 2012.

Coconut Wireless now sets its sights on diversifying into a more street urban brand catering for both women and men. 

Coconut Wireless is continuously inspired by many things i.e. by nature, by music, interactions with family, friends and the occasional passer-by. 

Coconut Wireless is inspired by events, art, photography and literature (whether online or print). 

“Our brand is also regarded as a business so in terms of making sales, FJFW is a perfect platform for advertising the brand and creating awareness on what we can deliver as a designer brand” said Whippy 

Urban Myth is the name of our 24 pie collection. Myths are a collection of stories that are passed on from generation to generation, it is shared amongst people of a common bond and story-telling/ communication is what Coconut Wireless really means.

FJFW 2009 was her launching pad and she hasn’t looked back since. Growing her business has been her key focus.

Rabuka said inspiration is found in her family and what’s around her in terms of nature and the environment.

Rabuka also added fashion is an art form, it’s not about winning.

Rabuka’s resort collection is titled ‘LADY MEDINILLA’, she drew inspiration from the unique Tagimoucia flower of her island Taveuni.

The goal is to supply her line to the resorts in Taveuni and this year’s line has been financially backed by her friends.
