OUR STORY

 

Goldriva started with a simple feeling most of us know well. The first warm day of the year arrives, you open your wardrobe and somehow nothing feels right. Too heavy, too fussy, or just not you anymore. We wanted summer clothes that felt easy to wear, looked lovely without trying too hard and lasted longer than one season.

 

Goldriva.com is run by LUNA ROSA LTD, a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 14794307. The company was founded by Andrew Barton-Pye and officially incorporated at Companies House on 12 April 2023. From day one the plan was clear: build an online shop dedicated to women's summer clothing, with pieces chosen carefully rather than thrown together in huge numbers.

 

We are based in Paignton on the Devon coast, and honestly that has shaped a lot of what we do. Living by the sea means summer is not just a few weeks in July. It is long walks along the seafront, lunches outside, evenings that stay light until late and the odd surprise breeze that has you reaching for a light layer. Those everyday moments are exactly what we think about when we pick a dress, a top or a pair of linen trousers for the shop.

 

WHAT WE CARE ABOUT

 

Comfort comes first. If something looks beautiful but you spend the whole day adjusting it, it does not make it into our collection. We look for soft, breathable fabrics, flattering cuts and colours that work just as well at a garden party as they do on a weekend away.

 

We also believe good clothes should not feel out of reach. We keep our range focused so we can take care over every piece, describe it honestly and help you choose something you will actually wear again and again.

 

A SMALL TEAM THAT LISTENS

 

Goldriva is not a faceless corporation. We are a small business, and every order, question and piece of feedback matters to us. If you are unsure about sizing, want to know more about a fabric or simply need a second opinion, just get in touch. A real person will read your message and get back to you.

 

Thank you for stopping by and for supporting an independent shop from Devon. We hope you find something here that makes this summer feel a little bit brighter.

 

With love,

The Goldriva Team
