Colourful
Collections That Focus On Textiles
Rianna + Nina’s passion for treasure-hunted vintage fabrics is exemplified in each of their collections. Their atelier brings stories from all over the world together into luxurious, elegant and colourful garments.
From the curation of high-end fabrics discovered by the founders during years of world travel or their unique collection of fine Italian silks sourced from Como for ready-to-wear pieces, the materials used are exquisite and quality is beyond compare.
As the founders have stated: “Every piece of fabric comes from years of discovery and exploration; with love and with passion, we’ve found some of the most beautiful materials in the world.” The brand prides itself in bringing never-before-seen designs to people who are tired of mass market luxury and instead crave refined, high-end, joyful looks that can be cherished for generations.
Contemporary patterns, impeccable embroidery, and select vintage materials form Rianna + Nina’s modern yet retro-inspired collections. The dynamic sustainable brand uses old, vintage materials from over 30 years ago. Moreover, they also craft made-to-order looks which are customised to one’s exact specifications on request in hopes of minimising waste. The brand’s goal is to have those wearing Rianna + Nina garments feel as special as they felt while creating it; they want the wearers to experience the brand’s story, while creating their own.
The History of Rianna + Nina
The eccentric brand is the realisation of two women’s dreams. It was brought to life by Rianna Kounou and Nina Knaudt’s shared love for vintage items, international art, and collectors’ pieces. Rianna’s knowledgeable vintage exploration journeys plus Nina’s industry experience, amongst their other skills, all combined perfectly.
The label began as a small boutique in Berlin that was founded in 2014 and has ever since grown on an international level. Today, the Rianna + Nina flagship store is in Paris’s Palais Royal and the brand can also be found in over 40 stores and luxury hotels worldwide. Since its origins the brand has given importance to the celebration of vintage and continues doing so today, while giving women all over the world a place for colourful style, vibrant prints, and sustainable luxury.
