Fenwick

The herringbone scarf that sold 17 a day.

Bhavna Rishi London's herringbone wool scarves became one of Fenwick's fastest-moving independent label products. At peak, the scarf sold seventeen pieces a day — a result of getting the fundamentals right: fabric weight, price point, seasonal colour, and the kind of presentation a Fenwick buyer trusts. The Centre Parcs reorder story — five days' notice, 100 buffer pieces dispatched — is one of those production decisions that looks obvious in hindsight and is only possible with the right systems in place.

2019

British Museum

General gift shop retail, not exhibition-tied.

Licensed merchandise for the British Museum's general retail offering in 2019 — scarves stocked in the gift shop independently of a specific exhibition, which requires a different commercial calculation than exhibition merchandise. Products need to have standalone appeal and sit within the museum's broader retail range year-round.

The Royal Collection — a licensing standard all its own.

Licensed scarves produced for the Royal Collection Trust — one of the most formal and exacting licensing relationships in UK heritage retail. Every design element, every colourway, every fabrication requires approval through the Trust's licensing process before a single piece goes to production.

Chatsworth House

The Devonshire estate — luxury retail at pace.

Own-label silk and wool scarves for Chatsworth House's retail operation. One of England's great country houses has a retail audience that expects quality commensurate with the setting — fabrics, finishes, and presentation all calibrated to that expectation.

Orvis

The heritage outdoor brand — seasonal collections.

Silk and cashmere scarves stocked by Orvis, the heritage American outdoor and lifestyle retailer with a strong UK presence. Seasonal collections developed to match Orvis's country aesthetic — natural palettes, traditional motifs, the kind of craft that speaks to their customer.

2017–2019

Limewood Hotel

15 designs across three seasons. New Forest-themed.

A seasonal scarf range for Limewood Hotel — one of the UK's most admired luxury country house hotels, set in the New Forest. Over the course of the relationship (2017–2019) approximately 200 pieces were produced across 15 designs: silk florals and herringbone wool, all themed to the New Forest landscape and the hotel's considered aesthetic.

Knightsbridge — next to Harrods.

Silk and cashmere scarves for Lalage Beaumont's Knightsbridge boutique — a store whose proximity to Harrods sets the standard its buyers expect. Seasonal themed collections developed over three years, each one requiring the kind of fabric and colour work that holds up under a Knightsbridge customer's scrutiny.

2018

Bentalls

Art-inspired silk and cashmere.

Silk and cashmere art-inspired scarves produced for Bentalls's seasonal themed collection in 2018. Bentalls is a long-established department store with a discerning customer base — product quality and design coherence were the brief.

2016–2019

Ahume

Cotswolds retail — Bhavna Rishi London label.

Silk and wool scarves stocked in Ahume's Cotswolds physical store under the Bhavna Rishi London label — an own-label retail relationship that ran from 2016 to 2019. A Cotswolds audience that values quality provenance and considered design.
