RIIR

Showcases Indigenous Tinalak Weave Technique

It’s been a year or more since I got hold of my first wallet made by Rags2Riches. I may not be familiar with what Rags2Riches but I was still amazed as how intricate the wallet was made of. The  design and the material signifies how dedicate the workers are to made such a master piece of art.

And now another collection was presented at the Gallery , Greenbelt.

Style, substance, and sustainability are fused in the newest collection presented by Rags2Riches. Inspired by the intricate designs and unique weaves of the Tinalak, RIIR launches its Spring/Summer collection called “Newel,” which means “weave” in T’boli. The new collection aims to show the co-existence of three distinct elements to create an elegant masterpiece:  style, substance, and sustainability. The first line of bags solely designed by RIIR, the collection brings forward intricately designed pieces to fit the style of the modern, fashion-forward RIIR woman.

RIIR’s Spring Summer Collection is a stylish innovation. Utilizing the Tinalak, an indigenous weaving technique that is inspired by dreams, myths and beliefs, RIIR’s newest collection is dedicated to the RIIR woman who is a person with substance and unique style.

The new collection boasts of vibrant and exquisite pieces like the Hedem Hobo Bag dubbed “The Thinking Woman” in Tiboli. Other must-haves include the Ofi Clutch (fire), the Kena Hobo Bag (dream) The Kulon Clutch (rain), the Kenmu Clutch (fist) and the Benwu Tote Bag (world). Every creation is sure to catch the eye with its versatility, splash of sumptuous colors and ingenious patterns.

Coinciding with the launch of its Spring Summer Collection, RIIR also unveiled its new style advocate, Bianca Gonzalez. A well-known celebrity and fashion aficionado, Bianca is a woman that personifies the RIIR woman: empowered, passionate, and compassionate.
