About Us RIXO's story began in the London living room of best friends Henrietta & Orlagh, born from a shared passion for vintage. Today, RIXO remains a privately owned, female-founded, and female-led fashion brand, proudly staying true to the values it was built on. Our philosophy is to evoke a sense of wanderlust and free spirit in every wearer, filling a gap in the market with easy-to-wear, feminine shapes crafted from high-quality materials. Always inclusive and always empowering, we create a fusion of original hand-painted prints and timeless silhouettes designed to flatter women of all ages, sizes, nationalities, seasons, and moments in life. At the heart of RIXO is a love of vintage, craftsmanship, and storytelling, and a sense of discovery; creating pieces that feel personal, meaningful, and made to be loved for years, not seasons.
