Tailored and sharp, designs by Richard Chai are a play on sophistication. Experimenting first with more subdued, neutral hues, Richard has expanded his palette to include vibrant colors that are suitable for spring and summer. Flowing dresses, tailored jackets and sharp suits is what the label is all about. Richard uses masculine silhouettes, imbuing them with a feminine flair to achieve outfits that look sexy and classy.

Richard Chai is a designer that understands the value of understated elegance that most women look for. Perhaps one of his most famous runway styles is his flair for pairing fabric combinations that are unconventional. Light silk is paired with heavier tweed and wool for instance, creating an aesthetic fusion of styles, drapes and cuts that is quaintly unique to say the least. In 2009, Richard Chai debuted his contemporary collection, christening it Richard Chai Love, and runway reviews have been stellar. A designer with a keen eye for lasting fashion, Richard seems to be on the right track with both his men’s and women’s collection.
