LaRichelle is an Aemilian-South Sea Islander luxury fashion house. It was established in 1736 by Livia Moidonna, an Aemilian woman from Louisville who was inspired by the work of Galadriel Camel using Camelwool from the South Sea Islands. She visited the islands in 1734 for the first time and was struck by the traditional dress still worn by women and men in the countryside of the South Sea Islands and wanted to combine those ideas with the standards of high fashion. In the fall of 1735 she had assembled a team of seamstresses in Louisville and a group of shepherds that would supply her with the wool she needed in the vicinity of Zuid-Richel. She first presented her new clothing line on the 22nd of Friedeber in 1736 at the South Cibolan Fashion Week. In the summer of 1736 she started to work on a line of accessoires, especially purses made out of sheep leather.
The name LaRichelle is a play on the two hometowns of the fashion house, Zuid-Richel and Louisville, where the name of the former is pronounced as if it were written in the Alexandrian language of the latter.
