About
Lola is the Founder and Creative Director of Silver & Riley her life's passion. A vision she is thankful every day to be work towards.
Getting to where she is has been quite the journey. With no manufacturing connections or contacts, it took her a year and 136 rejections to find her first partner factory. But she was determined. As the theme of resilience has been prevalent throughout her life. She truly believes there is nothing we cannot accomplish with determination and optimism to keep getting up and giving it another go.
Lola has studied around the world and earned degrees in Engineering, Mathematics, Strategy, and Finance, but she's always most grateful for her "real world" education. With Silver & Riley, she's able to blend her engineering and global business background with her love for fashion design, inherited from my late mother, whom the brand is dedicated to.
