Nadia is the designer and founder of NADIA RIDIANDRIES, a womenswear and jewellery label based in Sydney, Australia. She holds a Bachelor of Design in Fashion and Textiles (Honours) from the University of Technology Sydney. What began as a creative outlet—sparked by a desire to repurpose materials rather than discard them—evolved into a small business she launched on Etsy in 2014 under the name Nineties Zephyr. In 2021, the brand was relaunched as NADIA RIDIANDRIES. With a foundation in fashion and textile design, Nadia gradually expanded her practice into new mediums, including wire metalwork and silversmithing. Today, the brand is recognised for its distinctive, handmade jewellery crafted primarily from recycled metals and featuring natural gemstones sourced both locally in Australia and internationally. Nadia’s intuitive approach to design lets the materials guide the creative process, resulting in fluid, organic, and timeless pieces meant to be treasured across generations. Her work is made for everyone—designed to be worn by anyone, anywhere.
