What is Alyne by Rita Vinieris?
Alyne is a wedding dress collection designed by Rita Vinieris, sold alongside her Rivini bridal line. It presents seasonal collections, and its recent bridal seasons have been shown on the CFDA's Runway360 platform.
History
Rita Vinieris was raised in Canada, the daughter of Greek immigrants, and studied fashion at the International Academy of Design. After years designing for boutiques, menswear and private evening clients, she began designing wedding dresses under the Rivini name in 1995. Alyne was later added as a separate dress line.
Products and positioning
Alyne gowns combine soft and structured materials. The Fall 2024 collection, presented under the theme "Ethereal Chaos", included 12 looks that paired lace with satin and used layered tulle with draped and ruffled details. Silhouettes include:
- Strapless sheaths
- Ballgowns and fit-and-flare gowns
- Convertible designs with detachable sleeves
- Corseted and lace-detailed bodices
Distribution
The label is sold through bridal salons, including Kleinfeld Bridal in New York, which carries a dedicated Alyne by Rita Vinieris range.
Why it matters
Alyne shows how an established bridal designer can extend her name with a second label that offers a distinct design language within the same salon network.
