Riya Raina

My love for fashion began with a pair of scissors, a t-shirt, and a childhood mission—to make my dog the best-dressed in town. That playful spark grew into a passion for bold patterns, intricate textiles, and maximalist designs that don’t just exist but tell a story. Rooted in India’s rich craftsmanship, I blend tradition with modernity, using fashion as a voice for women's empowerment and mental health awareness.
