Ripley Rader started sewing at age 10 with her grandmother. By age 15 she was designing, sewing, and selling clothes to her high school classmates – everything from tops to prom dresses.
Sewing was always a joy, not the main focus of her life as she was a professional dancer and singer from the age of 9. She attended NYU for musical theatre, performing in NYC and regional theaters She toured the country with the Broadway show, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat”. It was only after moving to LA that her passion for designing and sewing took a front seat. She attended a concert wearing a piece she designed (the classic jumpsuit), got scouted by a buyer from Fred Segal, and Ripley Rader (the brand) was born.
Ripley now sings and dances for fun, mentors teen girls, and lives in her design studio in Hollywood with her husband, Ben {CFO of Ripley Rader} and her sweet pup, Friday.
Ripley Rader is proudly made in Los Angeles.
