The Guilty Hyena: Sou Brette

Sou Brette - Unknown Waters New Collection

17 Oct 2010

UNDERWATER KINGDOM OF FAIRYTALES

Sou Brette's Muqliza Imroni has knocked it dead once again, with her new collection called unknown waters. I'm becoming a complete aficionado of the Jakarta based designer, bringing a more feminine, down in the indigo depths of the sea of naga, bubbled pearls of the fairy tales reminding me of the Indonesian tropical waters. While watching the 1953 Alexandr Ptushko film "Sadko", Sou Brette's Muqliza Imroni was thoroughly inspired and awed by the golden touch of its incredibly imaginative coloring, splendid characters, and breathtaking portraiture of the underwater kingdom. She wanted to create a collection drawn solely from the imagery of an underwater fairytale.

Unknown Waters contributes a softer, more organic form to Sou Brette's usual tough, geometric-shaped jewelry. Crystal clear resin filled with faux pearl inlays, ropes dressed in textured marble print cotton in colors representing an underwater realm; have all been carefully chosen to create an honest and personal dream-like collection.

Sequins & Sou Brette Jewellery

25 Jun 2010

SEQUACIOUS SEQUIN LEAFS

This isnt a peculiar rewind time warp thing, I'm taking a revisit back to a post I wrote on Sou Brette Jewellery, what I forgot to mention was a few weeks ago I jumped the broom and decided to gather some of my hyena pennies and spend it on, one of these tasty Puramis Choker's with the central pyramid. The key word for buying this Choker was 'It's an INVESTMENT' that was what I kept telling myself in order to relieve any doubt.

By mere coincidence a few days later whilst I was riffling though several on-line stores, I came across the Kenya Dress at Monsoon, which had an all over sequin look and beading, and what sealed the deal, was the sequin beading on the back end of the dress. Furthermore I decided to wear it at a family wedding and amalgamate it with an Asian fusion, since Asian weddings are all about sparkly vibrant visage.

And so I've decided to take the plunge and share a photo a lovely friend took of the Sou Brette choker I wore at the occasion, standing with one of my confidants- my sister,

who is very reluctant like myself to share any photo's with others as being very private people that we are and frankly I'm more comfortable behind the camera, because a lense whatever sized pointed in my direction makes me break into gawkiness and it's officially named by my family & friends my 'leather mode' -hahaha

The longest Tennis Match in History at Wimbledon & a slightly scary match by Rafa Nadal and a furthermore nerve racking football match by England has kept me on tenterhook's this week along with deciding to take Golf Lessons which I candidly decided to take so I can enjoy the open fresh air and greenery whilst occasionally veering the Golf Buggy all over the vicinity.

A phrase that sums up my Golfing calibre - Caddy Do you think my game is improving? Oh yes, Madam You miss the ball much closer than you used to- So it's no Golf for me for this Weekend I think I'll stick to continue watching sport than having a slipshod attempt at playing. Have A Great Weekend All..

SOU BRETTE JEWELLRY

These tasty handmade accessories are designed by Muqliza Imroni hailing from Jakarta, Indonesia. Inspirations for Sou Brette grew out of everything and found their way into Muqliza's senses. What she sees, hears, feels, and touches are then translated into an intimate yet tangible recognition of these abstract reverie. The collection below is called 'Runic' and these gems would really accentuate any outfit, cotton ropes, polished metal, safety pins, and the staple element, resin, really draws me to want to hold them in my palms and paw all over them. (I thought the eyebrows in this lookbook are quite funkdafied tooo)
