Through fashion we want the younger generation to get inspired by the fabrics and traditional costumes of Cyprus. Giving an opportunity to one of the most iconic and well known fabric to come back to life 'The Alatsia'.

The handmade fabric called 'The Rizari Fabric' is a unique piece made entirely on the loom using traditional Cypriot weaving techniques. This fabric gets its name from the Rizari plant's natural dye, which gives it a distinctive coloration of beige and red stripes with interwoven gold threads.
