RIANNA + NINA, the Berlin based fashion brand founded in 2014 by Rianna Kounou and Nina Knaudt, combines luxury vintage fabrics with traditional craftsmanship. For Christmas, the pair have assembled a gift guide that reads less like a commercial exercise and more like an invitation into their world of colour and carefully hunted treasure.
The campaign imagery, shot within the ornate stone halls of Schloss Hotel Berlin, reveals what matters to these designers: a gathering of individuals in coordinated chaos, each wrapped in the kind of garments that refuse to blend in. A child in a scarlet jacquard coat stands beside an adult in a green silk shirt; further along, vintage kimonos in electric blue and burnt orange jostle against patterns that seem to belong in a 1960s archive. The geometric gold and black wall behind them mirrors the visual exuberance the label has built its name upon.
Kounou and Knaudt travel the world to find the most beautiful vintage scarves and fabrics, transforming them into colourful one of a kind pieces through manufacturing in a small family owned factory in Greece and by experienced tailors in Berlin. Each item in the Christmas collection reflects this philosophy. RIANNA + NINA is known for extravagant one of a kind designs hand crafted by local artisans and a unique print collection focused on fluid kaftans, extraordinary printed kimonos and easy to wear pants and blouses.
What elevates these gifts beyond the seasonal is their permanence. Unlike other fashion brands, new collections are not oriented towards seasons; the products are non seasonal as well as timeless. A vintage silk jacket from RIANNA + NINA belongs to no particular moment, only to the person who wears it.
