Rodika Zanian
Rodika Zanian launched her own brand in 1987, impassioned by the construction of European fashion. With the support of her business partner JP Jonathan, she decided to focus on designing a unique collection for women, specializing in knitwear and with designs rich in construction; enticing due to the creation process.
After graduating with a degree in the Architecture and Fine Arts, Rodika, Romanian by birth, adopted Paris as her home in 1980.
The selection of natural and soft materials are the essence of her collections. These become the nucleus which Rodika brings to life by playing with proportion, size and shape of each design. Along with the natural beauty of her fabrics and styles, it is this playful side that delights her customers. Over the years, her unique melange of construction, fabric and texture has become her signature.
Each season, Rodika’s singular goal is to make her customers feel both fabulous and feminine.
The entire collection is made in France with most of the fabrics and yarns being sourced from Italy. Her label can be found in the best stores both in France and around the world and is represented by agents in France, England, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Italy, Greece, Japan, Hong Kong and The United States of America.
Her first eponymous boutique was launched near the Quartier du Marais in 1990, followed by a second one in 1995, in the very fashionable neighborhood of
St Germain des Près.
In 2003, her third shop, in the very stylish and beautiful Gallery Vivienne near the Royal Palace, opened with a new design and presentation concept.
« RIEN N’ETANT AQUIS , CHAQUE NOUVELLE COLLECTION EST UNE REMISE EN QUESTION, UN NOUVEAU DEFI, MAIS EN MÊME TEMPS UNE TRES BELLE AVENTURE » - Rodika Zanian
“Nothing in life is certain and we have to re-evaluate each and every detail.
We have to question each move as each new collection presents new challenges, but at the same time we start a wonderful adventure” - Rodika Zanian |
