Alessandra Rich

Alessandra Rich is the eponymous womenswear label of Italian-born designer Alessandra Rich, who founded it in 2010 and operates offices in London and Milan. The brand builds retro-glamour eveningwear and occasion dressing around polka-dot silk crepe de chine, Chantilly lace, crystal buttons and wool tweed bouclé suiting, produced entirely in Italy. Collections show at London Fashion Week and reference mid-century film heroines through puff sleeves, high collars, ruffles and nipped waists. Dresses typically retail from roughly $1,200 to $3,300 at Harrods, Farfetch and FWRD. The house remains independent and designer-led, with no reported ownership change.
