Isa Boulder
Having started out as a swimwear brand in 2019, Bali-based womenswear brand Isa Boulder is the creative brainchild of Central Saint Martins graduate Cecilia Basari and long-term pattern maker Yuli Suri.
Combining contemporary aesthetics with local craftsmanship, their handmade pieces lead sustainable fashion into a new sensual direction.
Like an ode to the female body, Isa Boulder creates form-fitting pieces that drape around the body and accentuate its shape. The brand’s experimental designs are often inspired by the silhouettes and materials themselves and showcase the designers’ perfectionism and artistry.
With sustainability being an important value of the brand, Basari and Suri work closely with local manufacturers and create handmade pieces that celebrate ethical craftsmanship and the love for long-lasting designs.
