About TRiBE
FROM RiNUDE TO TRiBE
TRiBE Co is an art, vintage, and lifestyle studio at 955B Gladstone Avenue in Ottawa, founded by Ingrid Daniel. It grew out of RiNude, the vintage business she started around 2013.
MEET INGRID
Ingrid is the daughter of a seamstress and grew up making clothes, which taught her what a well-made garment looks like. Her sister thought she had an eye for good pieces, and she took the hint.
After moving back from France, she turned a passion for sustainable fashion into a business. It started as vintage resale under the RiNude name and grew into TRiBE: a space for small businesses, styling, and special-occasion rentals.
She has named Madam C.J. Walker as a major inspiration.
