T. Ayriyan Fashion

Custom clothing and tailoring

What it is:

The retail space and studio of fashion designer Tatyana Ayriyan.

Where to find it:

Formerly in Newport, T. Ayriyan is now easy to find (and park) on Bald Hill Road in Warwick. Minutes off the highway, it’s in the plaza right before the sign for Warwick Ice Cream.

What makes it a Rhody Gem?

Getting fatigued with fast-fashion? Mass-produced clothing made to be trendy… but not made to last? Enter fashion designer Tatyana Ayriyan, who designs and creates clothing, including wedding gowns, and provides alteration and tailoring services, all from her showroom and studio in Warwick. “My work is rooted in creating thoughtfully designed pieces that reflect a woman’s individuality while offering timeless silhouettes and refined tailoring,” says the designer, who specializes in luxury garment alterations – dresses, coats, evening wear – with attention to detail and balance. After operating her first boutique in Newport, she decided to begin a new chapter and relocated the business to Warwick in November. “The space functions as both a showroom for my brand and a full atelier. We offer custom-made clothing, expert tailoring and alterations of any complexity, and in-house fitting services for store purchases. Clients also receive styling guidance to help complete their looks.” As the wedding season approaches, Ayriyan works closely with brides on garments that feel personal, elegant, and beautifully crafted. “From bridal gowns to special occasion looks, each piece is designed with attention to detail, fit, and the individuality of the client.” Watch for an in-store event in March.
