This Autumn we celebrate thirty years of River Island. To
commemorate three decades of unique style, we asked founders, friends and fans
of the brand to share their favourite RI moments. Did we mention the video
debuts our limited-edition anniversary collection…?
Hitting 30 is a landmark moment, a coming of age that means you know what you’re about. At thirty, we think we’ve mastered the art of celebrating you and your insatiable love of fashion. Island life is not about rules. Since the Lewis family opened its first River Island in 1988, the mission has been clear - to bring you distinctive design and enjoy watching you style it, however suits you.
“We hope you like wearing the clothes, we hope it gives you a sense of excitement each time put them on. We like to think you feel better in them.” - Bernard Lewis
“Every day is a happy day on the Island.” - Farida Kaikobad
“I’ll be turning 30 at the same time as RI, I’ll party with all my friends and family, wearing River Island clothes obviously.” - Florence
“The first time I interviewed David Beckham, I was wearing a River Island shirt and he gave me a bit of a nod as if to say, nice shirt” - Matt Hambly
