QUEER SELF-EXPRESSION,
MADE VISIBLE.
RIVEL Studio began with a name.
A play on rival—a challenge to what already exists—and a reversal of founder Levi Rodriguez’s name: LEVI R, rearranged. That tension, along with a love of contradiction, sits at the center of the studio.RIVEL Studio creates clothing outside the binary—pieces that can be masculine and feminine, both and neither, for all genders and no gender at all.
Not menswear. Not womenswear. Just clothes—left to the wearer to define.
One-of-one garments, limited handmade releases, reconstructed and upcycled pieces, and custom commissions designed and made by RIVEL Studio. Clothing that explores gender through shape, proportion, material, transformation, and the freedom to exist beyond traditional categories.
WORKS
Goods
Graphic apparel, accessories, and objects that carry the same RIVEL Studio point of view in a more everyday form. Sometimes the statement lives in the design; sometimes it says exactly what it means.
