Once Depressed Because of the Pandemic, Here's the Story of Famous Designer Ririn Rinura who Rises with the Support of Dewi Perssik

Kapanlagi.com - The name of the designer Ririn Rinura is certainly not unfamiliar in the world of entertainment in the country, especially in the fashion show world. Various clothing from his work is often worn by celebrities and famous officials.

Not only that, his clothing is priced at tens to hundreds of millions of rupiah. Even many professional models abroad entrust their clothing designs to this woman from Pangandaran.

Therefore, it is not surprising that this woman from West Java has abundant wealth in her time.

"Artists, officials, and even foreign models often ask me to design their clothes, I am very grateful that many believed in me at that time," said Ririn when met in South Jakarta, Wednesday (17/7).

"Even Dewi Perssik is the most loyal customer, most of Depe's (Dewi Perssik's nickname) show clothes are designed by me," she added.

1. Often Become a Sponsor

Not only that, Ririn admitted that at that time she often became a fashion sponsor for audition participants in talent search events on several television stations such as Indosiar and MNC TV. It's no wonder she has abundant wealth and skyrocketing popularity.

"At that time, I had everything. In terms of wealth, I was considered successful, a career woman, and very rich. I even owned many sports cars with fantastic prices. I also had many houses in various cities. I often traveled abroad. I even once participated in a celebrity gathering with a value of billions of rupiah at that time," Ririn recalled.

2. No Income

However, when the whole world was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, all economies came to a halt. All clients, entrepreneurs, officials, and artists who often ordered clothes were forced to stop because events outside were limited by the government.

Due to the extremely difficult economy at that time, Ririn admitted that many materials for clothing production suddenly became worthless. Little by little, the belongings she had accumulated gradually disappeared as she sold them to make a living.

"I sold my house, sold all my gold, land, and branded items such as bags and clothes just to support myself and my children," she said.

3. Ever Wanted to Commit Suicide?

Ririn even admitted that she had wanted to end her life because of the many problems and pressures she faced. For Ririn, that time was the lowest point in her life.

"If I remember 5 years ago, I used to feel sad. I couldn't sleep well, and I even suffered from insomnia because of thinking about problems. Celebrity friends disappeared, I don't know where," she said.

"But I also have a loyal friend who always supports me in difficult times. I consider her as my own sister, she is Ernila, one of the tour and travel entrepreneurs in Bali," she added.
