The hands behind it

Every seam is signed.

Meet the small team who cut, knit and mend everything we make — in one studio, in Lisbon.

Master TailorJoana Reis

Joana Reis

Joana has cut every coat we’ve ever made. She joined the studio on day one, bringing thirty years of tailoring from a Porto atelier.

“A coat should feel like it was always yours. That takes time — and I have time.”

Miguel Santos

Miguel runs our knitting floor, coaxing linen and cashmere into pieces that hold their shape for a decade.

“The machine does nothing without patience. I set the tension by hand, every morning.”

Ana Ferreira

Ana leads our repair service — the reason a RIVISTA piece outlives the trend that made it.

“Nothing here is disposable. If it tears, it comes back to me, and it leaves like new.”
