Rigby & Peller is an English lingerie retailer which holds a Royal Warrant of Appointment. The company was founded in 1939 by Gita Peller, a Hungarian immigrant who settled in London, and Bertha Rigby, an English corseti�re, with a shop in South Molton Street in London's West End. As of 2011, they had seven stores as well as a website. In 1960 the company began providing bespoke undergarments to the Queen of the United Kingdom; they subsequently provided their products to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon, and other members of the royal family. In addition to the royal family, the company has also sold products to Hollywood actresses, such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johansson, and musicians, such as Lady Gaga. Another notable supporter of Rigby & Peller was magazine editor Isabella Blow, who would sometimes wear the company's brassieres as outerwear in public. In 1982 Rigby & Peller was purchased for �20,000 by June and Harold Kenton. They were assisted in the management of the company by their children, Jill Kenton and Harold Kenton. In 2011 Van de Velde, a Belgian brassiere manufacturer, purchased a majority stake in Rigby & Peller.
