Guest Award Announcer – Henrietta Rix
Henrietta (right) is co-founder of RIXO, a brand loved by fashion editors, celebrities, and royals alike, with A-list fans including Daisy Ridley, Sandra Bullock and the Princess of Wales.
RIXO’s story began in September 2015 in the London living room of student best friends, Henrietta Rix & Orlagh McCloskey, and born from their passion for vintage clothing and accessories. The brand’s DNA hinges around the concept of future vintage.
“Design doesn’t follow specific trends or seasons and the brand encourages customers to invest in pieces they genuinely love, will re-wear and pass down through generations.”
Within 9 years, Henrietta and Orlagh have established RIXO as a global brand. With three London stores, (the flagship King’s Road opened in 2023 and houses all collections and a cocktail bar!), stocked in Harrods and the like, and even has its own community (HumansofRixo on Instagram).
But Henrietta’s story is so much more than being a global success (as if that’s not enough). She is quite frankly an inspiring woman that could just as easily be collecting an Award or three at the 2024 Inspiring Women Awards lunch as giving one out.
Why do I think that? Well, you will have to attend the 2024 Inspiring Women Awards to find out.
