BEHIND THE BRAND
MEET ANNA
RIVI babe, I'm so glad you're here!
I consider myself the CEO of Chaos (being an entrepreneur is truly that). I dropped my corporate event planning life in Las Vegas on a leap of faith because I desperately needed more flexibility to focus on balance. That's when I took a chance on RIVI.
My intention is to design swimwear that makes you feel unique and confident while eliminating waste. Our processes are thoughtful and sustainable, removing fast from fashion and creating quality suits that will last. I absolutely love being outdoors, and my favorite memories include hiking, camping, and sailing trips. My philosophy is that we can be bold and set the tone for years to come in an effort to help our gorgeous planet.
To me, RIVI means good times, no matter where you choose to relax or explore. I want RIVI to be part of those moments of bliss and when you are truly happy. I strive for our designs to be meaningful, beautiful, and full of adventure, like life should be.

MINIMAL IS MORE
There's a liberating feeling when you wear a minimal suit. You're not worried about the suit rolling, shifting, and moving around when you're swimming, snorkeling, or simply lounging. More importantly, you embrace your body and your confidence shines.
SMALL, BOUTIQUE COLLECTIONS = BETTER FOR YOU & MOTHER EARTH
We pour our energy into unique launches of different swimsuit types and eliminating excessive waste from the process. You will never find a single-use plastic shipping bag or wasteful packaging for your RIVI suits. The luxe fabric we use lets the suit contour to your body so it fits like a glove. It is not too thin and not too thick, just right for the comfort to last day and night. Due to our commitment to small quantities, we can't guarantee restocks of certain items.
OUR PROCESS
We have partnered with a manufacturer that aligns with our goals to ethically produce small collections of swimwear. We only order in reduced quantities, which makes your suit one-of-a-kind while minimizing our footprint on the environment. We are shifting to recycled fabrics thanks to regenerated Nylon, and we only use eco-friendly packaging, including compostable bags and recycled paper for thank you notes and hangtags.
OUR MANUFACTURER
RIVI isn't competing with the big box options, and we prioritize ethical manufacturing. Our manufacturer is also a woman-owned business, workers are paid a fair wage, and they have good working conditions.
