Originally a photographer with a passion for design, Robyn Brooks launched the Ooby Ryn label in late 2005 to provide clothing for women with individual style and no boundaries to their imagination. And this was proved to be a winning formula because by early 2007 Robyn had secured 16 stockists nationwide.

Not to mention showing at ANZFW06 as a Verge Breakthrough Designer, crafting her own website, winning numerous business awards and opening an Ooby Ryn store in Cambridge.Needless to say; impressive rafts of achievements for an emerging fashion label. "I think Ooby Ryn offers something different," says its designer Robyn Brook,"I just let the fabric speak to me and design clothes that I would like to wear," she says.

That something different is garments with a strong sense of romanticism and personality in exclusive, graphic fabrics in unique and exceptionably wearable feminine designs and a range of leather belts, all proudly made in New Zealand. Designs are beautifully feminine, and exceptionally wearable. And with a range of vibrant and exclusive fabrics, each Ooby Ryn collection outshines the last.
