Fashion
Founded in 2015 by Wray Serna, WRAY is a New York-based contemporary womenswear collection. While her collections are designed and developed in NYC, every garment is created ethically at fair-trade, family-owned operations in India. In early 2020, just as WRAY's designs were in the process of pattern grading to extended sizes, wardrobe stylist Rebecca Grice approached her for Shrill (TV series), starring Aidy Bryant. Vogue has also recognized Wray for making every garment is a full size range. Wray's clothes are worn by celebrities and artists including Dakota Johnson, Molly Bernard, Hilary Duff, Aidy Bryant, Maya Rudolph, Sasheer Zamata, and Japanese organizing consultant, Marie Kondo. In 2021, Wray designed the wedding dress worn by actress Molly Bernard for her marriage ceremony.

Personal life
Serna and her partner, artist Ethan Cook, divide their time between their Clinton Hill apartment and their country home in the Catskills.
