Cally Rieman is a New York-based women’s ready-to-wear designer who launched the KAL RIEMAN collection in 2010. From an early career in the financial industry, Cally observed the challenges of dressing powerfully and maintaining one’s femininity in professional environments limited to the “skirted suit.”

Her passion for studying the historical influences of formal menswear on women’s clothing led to pursuing an education in fashion design at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. After several years apprenticing with global fashion houses, Cally applied her experience with men’s and women’s wear to bring KAL RIEMAN to life. A self-professed grown-up tomboy, Cally approaches her collections as an exploration of the strong, modern woman.

The essential philosophy of KAL RIEMAN is to curate your wardrobe with garments that bring you joy, with an emphasis on quality over quantity. We cultivate partnerships with fabric mills who share our commitment to sustainability and transparency to create clothing you can feel good about wearing.

Your KAL RIEMAN garments are made in the heart of NYC's Garment District, just a few floors above our studio. From year to year, our collections are designed to work together to augment your wardrobe, and from season to season, KAL RIEMAN style and construction is made to be lovingly worn again and again.
