Rhian

 

Rhian challenges the balance between utilitarian functionality and other worldly grace.

Rhian aims to create a space where fashion is an expression of the soul; an art form that speaks to those who find beauty in the subtle and profound. Rhian is committed to slow fashion principles, crafting garments locally in Dunedin from high-quality fabrics designed to stand the test of time.

Sustainability
One of the key ways Rhian achieves sustainable practices is through their made-to-order model. Unlike traditional fashion brands that mass-produce garments, often leading to excess stock and significant waste, Rhian only creates what is needed.  When you place an order with Rhian, your garment is made specifically for you, ensuring that every piece has a purpose and a home. This approach not only reduces waste but also allows focus on quality and craftsmanship, giving you a product that is both unique and enduring.

Diversity
Rhian is committed to celebrating diversity through their made-to-measure approach. By pattern drafting based on individual measurements, they ensure that each garment is tailored to fit perfectly, regardless of size or shape. Their dedication to inclusivity means that designs are for every body, with each piece crafted to meet the specific needs and preferences of our diverse clientele. Additionally, many of our designs are multi-functional, and the use of ties, D-rings, straps and drape allow our garments to be styled on different sizes and in different silhouettes. Rhian is committed to celebrating the beauty of human difference, and encourage those from all walks of life to wear what makes them the most content.
