Original Designer Outfits and REVIVE: How Raz Ruya Labels What You Buy

Quick answer: at Raz Ruya, any outfit listed under a designer's name, such as Maria B, Akbar Aslam, Afrozeh, AIK Atelier, Hussain Rehar, Sardinia or Jazmin, is an original piece from that designer's collection, tailored to your size or measurements. REVIVE by Raz Ruya is our own label of designer-inspired designs. REVIVE outfits are not made by, or affiliated with, any other designer, and they are always clearly labelled REVIVE.

How to tell which is which

  • The brand line. On every product page, the brand shown above the title is the designer for originals, or Raz Ruya for REVIVE.
  • The product name. Originals are titled with the designer's name first, for example AKBAR ASLAM | Luxury Formals | Hazel. REVIVE outfits always include “REVIVE” in the name, for example Lucent by REVIVE.
  • The collection. Originals sit in their designer's collection, such as Akbar Aslam or Maria B. REVIVE outfits sit in the REVIVE by Raz Ruya collection.

What “original” means at Raz Ruya

We source the designer's own outfit and then stitch it for you. Because many Pakistani designer collections are sold as fabric (unstitched), “made to order” at Raz Ruya means our tailors cut and finish the designer's original fabric and embellishment to your size, with details such as modesty lining, sleeves and shirt length set for you. See how made to order works.

What REVIVE is

REVIVE by Raz Ruya is our own label. Its designs are inspired by Pakistani couture, made and finished by us, and sold under the REVIVE name. They are not presented as, or sold as, any other designer's product.

Why we label this clearly

You should always know exactly what you are buying. Clear labelling means you can choose an original from your favourite designer, or a REVIVE design, with no confusion about who made it.
