Founded in New York City by Pamela Hunt, Orithyia takes its name from Greek mythology.
Orithyia was a queen of the Amazons, a tribe of women warriors who struck fear in the bravest of armies through their remarkable skills in warfare and alliance with the gods.
Orithyia’s beauty and achievements are legendary as a fierce and skillful warrior and leader whose life leaves a legacy of spirit and boldness within ancient history.
Since childhood, I have felt a fierce sense of individuality. I searched for the unusual, dreamed of exquisitely crafted pieces, and reimagined what existed. Through this journey, I realized the expressive power of clothing to tell your story, immerse yourself in another world, connect you to a larger existence, and feed your aspirations.
Competing in running from an early age, I sought to navigate my unique sense of self within a team and sport I loved. That path led to Orithyia where I bring style and craftsmanship to clothing that honors the true essence of sport and wellbeing. We strive to awaken the strength and beauty within every woman to move toward well-being and longevity.
Orithyia inspires women to define their strength and beauty through an active lifestyle. We create collections for the way she moves — naturally, with grace and conviction.
