First Steps

Una Ricci started with retailing fashion accessories that were consigned in various malls around the metro, namely Trinoma, SM Mall of Asia, Greenbelt, Glorietta, and Power Plant Mall. Una Ricci focused on events and marketing, which is the forte of its founder and CEO Nina Ricci Eleazar. This included events both in Manila and Boracay.

The Label Begins

Una Ricci Label was born. With Nina Ricci Eleazar's passion for design and fashion, the brand addresses the gap in Manila's retail landscape, offering stylish, high-quality, and comfortable pieces without the hefty price tag. Una Ricci takes pride in its distinct aesthetic that has not been seen in other stores around the metro.

First Product Launch

Further building on Una Ricci Label clothing, 2019 paved the way to its first atelier for its day-to-day manufacturing. The brand had first consigned in a multi-brand store in Power Plant Mall. As Una Ricci offers customization of its pieces, with only a 1-week lead-time, clients are not limited to the colors, sizing, and fabrics displayed on the racks. This unique service is something that the brand takes pride in as a fresh approach to retail fashion.

Leap of Faith

In August 2020, amid the challenges of the pandemic, Una Ricci expanded by taking over a 99.98 sqm retail space in Power Plant Mall, where it had first consigned. This growth allowed for a broader merchandise mix, faster stock turnover, and a move to a larger atelier for production. The brand also placed products in Frankie General Store, achieving a high ranking among hundreds of brands across branches in SM Aura, Molito Lifestyle Center, Power Plant Mall, and Sydney, Australia.

Una Ricci’s reach attracted attention from fashion stylists, celebrities, and the media—garnering features in commercials, TV shows, magazines, billboards, and more. Notable clients include Heart Evangelista, Anne Curtis, Sarah Geronimo, Pia Wurtzbach, Catriona Gray, Ruffa Gutierrez, and Liz Uy, all without paid marketing efforts.

A Travel Destination

This year has been an important journey. Alongside operating Una Ricci as both a label and a store, and offering custom pieces with a one-week lead time in a mall setting, we expanded into new markets through a consignment partnership with Shangri-La Boracay’s Regalo Boutique. This milestone reflects our ongoing commitment to growth and connection.

Retail Presence 2022

In March to September 2022, Una Ricci operated a showroom in Poblacion, Makati City—just a stone's throw from Power Plant Mall—to serve its VIPs and loyal clients in the area.

In May 2022, Una Ricci operated its pop-up store at the ground floor of Uptown Mall.

In November 2022, Una Ricci launched its 70sqm space on the ground floor of Mitsukoshi BGC, the first Japanese mall in the country.

Beyond Retail

In April 2023, Una Ricci had opened its 45sqm in-line space also at the ground floor of Uptown Mall in April 2023.

In June 2023, Una Ricci introduced Atelier Nina Ricci Eleazar which carries dressier pieces for special occasions and caters to clients' bespoke needs. From weddings, school proms, debuts, and other events, the atelier located in Merville, Paranaque creates pieces for women, men, and children at any age.

Return to Essence

In May 2024, Una Ricci took its Spring/Summer collection to the serene islands of Kaniki and the Mountainside Property in Busuanga for an inspiring photoshoot.

By September 2024, the brand made a strategic decision to close its Uptown Mall location, focusing its efforts more intentionally on the Mitsukoshi BGC store, atelier operations, and personalized custom services. This year marked a thoughtful return to the brand’s core values and craftsmanship.

Focused

In February 2025, Una Ricci made the strategic decision to close its remaining store in Mitsukoshi BGC. By March, the brand returned to its roots as a label, intentionally focusing on expanding its presence in key travel destinations. Building on its partnership with Shangri-La Boracay, along with Tropical Nomad and Wanderskye Islands branches located in Bohol, Boracay, Coron, El Nido, and Siargao.

At the same time, Una Ricci reestablished its presence across multiple Frankie General Store locations—in Power Plant Mall, SM Aura, and the newest boutique in Greenbelt 5.

This renewed focus allows the brand to dedicate more time to its Made-To-Order pieces, offered strictly by appointment, catering to both loyal and new clients with personalized, bespoke service.
