A LOT OF MY DESIGNS TRACE BACK TO VINTAGE VAQUERO AND STUFF THAT MY GRANDFATHER WOULD WEAR BACK IN THE EARLY ’50S AND ’60s.

ADOLFO

Her great-great-grandfather, Adolfo Camarillo was the “Last Spanish Don” of the region’s pre-1848 Spanish settlers, for whom this California coastal town is named.

IT ALL RELATES BACK TO HER FAMILY'S HISTORY

Quincy’s grandmother Rosita grew up riding her family’s majestic horses in the Spanish Vaquero tradition, making yearly appearances in the Tournament of Roses Parade. 

ROSITA

RAISED ON HORSEBACK

Her mother Sally trained cutting horses, often telling how she rode while she was pregnant with her.

CREATIVE SIDE

Quincy began tinkering with her creative side, hand-painting her creative designs on the belts, boots, and tack she wore during rodeo competition.
