He has been also been the finalist in International Young Designers Fashion Week, Moda Estremadura - Badajoz, Spain. His photographic works have been showcased in solo exhibitions at India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, and other galleries.
His ambition of personal expression is through a hybrid of medium: fashion, photography, painting, graphics & writings, with which he reflects his translations of what he observes and assimilates.
Ritesh thinks of an alternate reality of fashion, which questions genres of couture - prêt - street wear and provokes stereotype notions of beauty - glamour - luxury. The brand proposes a hybrid sensibility, where essential nature and inevitable man-made do not fight for space but coexist to redefine future wardrobe.
Created in 2008, Ridzyn collections easily blend day to evening wear with intelligent mix and match of directional fashion separates and ensembles. Ridzyn is currently retailing in India and abroad from selected fashion stores.
Ritesh Kumar is an alumnus of Domus Academy, Milan - Italy (2005) and National Institute of Fashion Technology, New Delhi - India (2003).
At present, Ritesh Kumar is working on a hybrid sensibility, where essential nature and inevitable man made synthetics do not fight for space but coexist to redefine future wardrobe. Multi-dimensional integration of synthetic and natural, with a steady gaze towards future, forms his core area of interest.
Extremely excited about his latest collection, which is the second edition of the annual fashion calendar. Speaking exclusively to fibre2fashion, Ritesh shared about his design sensibilities, inspirations and more.
When we asked him about his design philosophy in general as a designer, he said, “I believe in mixing a lot of styles, genres, materials and aesthetics to generate new modalities of fashion clothing, as, I think originality is application based in the beginning and a lot of permutations and combinations of elements can lead to inventions someday”.
We asked him to elaborate a little about his design signatures to which he responded by saying, “I mostly work with subtle or deep colors with my favorites being, shades of grey. Lately I have been using a lot of vinyl details extracted from PVC pipe pieces and vinyl sheeting. I try to push symmetrical design mostly with an emphasis on amalgamation of technical construction with draping”.

Cook: Asked to explain actions Everton have written to Manchester City chief executive Garry Cook following an alleged boardroom row with an Everton fan. The game was overshadowed by a bust-up between managers Roberto Mancini Reports suggest Cook Cook and Downing, a regular guest of the Everton board, are alleged to have exchanged words in the directors' box before the latter, who was attending the game with his wife, was asked to leave. Everton have now written to Cook to demand an explanation following the incident. City, though, are bemused at his and Everton's reaction to the episode and are denying any wrong-doing from their chief executive, believing that he was merely reacting to Downing's behaviour, which they claim was inappropriate. City are claiming that near the end of the match Downing joined the Everton supporters singing of their impending victory while still in the directors' box. City claim he directed at least one chorus of this at Cook, though this is denied. Everton contacted Cook on Mr Downing's behalf on Thursday and a spokesman said: "We have written to Mr Cook asking for his observations with regard to the incident." Relations between the two clubs have been strained since Joleon Lescott's controversial £22 million transfer from Goodison Park to Eastlands last August, when City were accused of deliberately unsettling the England defender during their attempts to lure the player away from Merseyside.Cook caught up in Toffees row

Carvalho: Injury woe Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho is facing at least four weeks on the sidelines and could require surgery on damaged ankle ligaments. The Portugal international suffered the injury in the first half of Wednesday night's 5-0 victory over Portsmouth at Fratton Park. Centre-back Carvalho The former Porto player will now miss several key fixtures for the Blues as they chase Premier League and FA Cup glory. Carlo Ancelotti Carvalho will also be absent when the Stamford Bridge side travel to Wembley on 10th April to tackle Villa in the FA Cup semi-final. And he could be forced to go under the knife in a bid to cure the problem, with the club waiting to discover if an operation is needed, which could put his World Cup hopes in jeopardy. A statement on the club's official website read: "Chelsea can confirm that Ricardo Carvalho suffered ankle ligament damage in last night's game against Portsmouth. "The club will be able to determine over the next 24 hours whether the injury requires corrective surgery, however we can confirm at this point that he'll be out for at least four weeks." Chelsea moved back to within one point of leaders United with Wednesday's thumping victory, while London rivals Arsenal are just one point further back in third.Carvalho blow rocks Blues

Arsene Wenger. Arsene Wenger has called on Arsenal to produce a flawless finish to the season as they battle to secure the Premier League crown in an enthralling title race. The Gunner are just two points adrift of leaders Manchester United and one behind fellow challengers Chelsea with seven games of the season remaining. Wenger has seen his side written off twice this term, but they have defied the odds to remain firmly in contention on the back of six successive victories. Defending champions United and the Blues have both dropped points in that spell to ensure that the battle for glory remains too close to call entering the home straight. The French tactician believes the Emirates Stadium outfit cannot afford to drop any more points and knows they must also rely on their rivals slipping up. Wenger told Sky Sports News: "There are three teams in the race and it is down to the team who are the most consistent. We can only focus on our own performances. "We know our route has to be perfect. To be perfect it is important we focus on our performances. "We need some help from the other teams, but we know that will only work if we are consistent and keep our momentum. "We have created a fantastic momentum and we have created a great belief within our squad. The consistency of our run is the most important." Arsenal's last domestic defeat came in early February at the hands of Carlo Ancelotti's men at Stamford Bridge, but since then they have been in irrepressible form. And Wenger believes the team spirit developed in that run after being ruled out of contention by many pundits can help them across the finishing line. He added: "We want to keep the spirit, the hunger, the desire and the intelligence we have shown until now. "For a long time we have fixed ourselves targets. We play every game like our life depends on it and it has been like that for a long time now. "We need to bring consistency to our attitude. We have a remarkable attitude, a remarkable spirit in the team, and must just continue like we do."Wenger - We must be perfect

Rocha is stretchered off Portsmouth defender Ricardo Rocha has accused Florent Malouda of deliberately hitting him in the face and feels the Chelsea man should have been sent off for the offence. Rocha was stretchered off during Wednesday's 5-0 defeat to Chelsea after appearing to be caught in the face by an elbow from Malouda. Former Tottenham man Rocha was taken to hospital with a suspected fractured cheekbone, but it has been discovered he only suffered bad bruising in the incident. "I think it was a bad one from Malouda," Rocha was quoted as saying in The Sun. "He just hit me and did not try to get the ball. "The pain was so great I thought something was badly damaged. That is why I went to the hospital. "These kind of actions are dangerous and it should have been a red card. But he just got a yellow." Meanwhile, Malouda has protested his innocence and says Rocha had no problem with him after speaking to him at the end of the game. "I went in their dressing room after the game and Rocha had just come back from the hospital," said Malouda. "He has not broken anything and it is not as bad as it looked. He said no problem and it is OK. "When I jumped I was only looking at the ball. I didn't mean to hurt him."Rocha accuses Malouda
