MEET | OLIVIA ROSE WRIGHT

Featured 5.29-6.4.17 | Fashion is in Olivia Rose Wright's blood. Her grandmother supported her children's education by selling her dresses in the 1950s, and after stints at Prada and Cartier, Olivia felt it was time to conceptualize her own legacy, looking at the causes that mattered to her most and how she could really make a difference. And so she birthed Rallier, her womenswear label inspired by modern uniform dressing and which elevates the notion of social responsibility in fashion, donating a portion of every purchase to Shining Hope for Communities to support the provision of school uniform dresses to girls in Kenya. So basically, Olivia's awesome. As are her selects. Welcome to Olivia's week.

I also have a wall dedicated to Rallier's moodboard.  I savor mornings when I get to sit with coffee and focus on the big picture side of the brand creatively.

Rallier is inspired by modern uniform dressing - the pieces explore the tension between uniformity and individuality by mixing the heritage of archetypal dress codes with a feminine spirit of ease. For every piece sold, school uniforms are sourced from regions plagued by gender inequality and given to local schoolgirls. Also, everything is made entirely in New York.

During my trip to Kenya, my brother and I went on a safari with Saruni Mara in the Mara North Conservancy. This is another awe-filled experience that is also rooted in socially responsible practices.

Most of my makeup is from RMS but I also love Credo for discovering new non-toxic options.  I found Evolvh shampoo there, which I now use everyday.

I was shocked to learn about the millions of girls around the world who are denied access to education, but didn't know how I could create change with a background in luxury fashion.  When I later learned that school uniforms were often the cost barrier to education, I felt strongly that I could create a fashion brand to authentically address this clothing-driven need.
