SF Chronicle Article

Riki was mentioned in the Style section of last Sunday's Chronicle...

Verrieres & Sako

Verrieres & Sako launched its first women's wear collection in 2006 and has since been gaining unwavering attention across the nation with their "cutting edge basics" epitomizing a day-to-evening wardrobe. Their dramatic design lines, couture techniques and neutral color palette have become a signature look for this talented, young design team from the San Francisco Bay Area. Their sophisticated collection is at once modern and timeless and has begun to circulate in the celebrity circuit as well as being featured by WWD, Glamour and InStyle.

The Verrieres & Sako collection has been bought by some of the most sought-after retailers in the country and we are proud to announce that riki is now carrying the line in our Davis and Berkeley boutiques.


Their ruched dress, urban shorts and little sheer blouses with their impeccable fit and fabulous style lines, have been selling extremely well in our stores and we can't wait to receive Fall 2009.

Belts

Great news for riki...

We officially launched our belt line this July!

Our clean European designs in cowhide leathers and artisan finishes have been well received and we already have been picked up by some of the leading Bay Area boutiques for fall.

Midsummer Heat

Fun summer tops, skirts and cool linen dresses for July's hot temperatures.

The gladiator sandal in black from our homepage will be in again next week. So for all of you out there that were so disappointed that we ran out of them, now is the time to come by the store or call to reserve your size. This will be the last shipment and they will run out fast.

July News

It's been quite a busy two weeks for us at riki with last week's Side Walk Sale in Davis and a fashion show last Saturday evening in North Berkeley. Lots of fun!

Now that our summer sale is dwindling down, our new riki transition/early fall pieces are starting to arrive - and some of them are already selling out. Well, I suppose we have to recut some styles we still have fabrics for.

I have added another young and very talented designer from the Bay Area, Verriers & Sako and we are looking forward to their trunk show this fall in both of our stores. It's going to be a busy and exciting fall at riki!
