Isa Boulder is a committed, responsible and an original brand; each piece of which is made by local artisans in Bali from premium recycled fabrics.
Created by Cecilia Basari and Yuli Suri, two friends living in Bali who until recently had no experience in swimwear, this label is nevertheless one of the most promising on the market. Sexy swimsuits that place couture shapes and adjustments to enhance a woman’s body.
Their clothing pieces are carefully altered, cut and sewn by their in-house team to ensure that they control each and every product you receive. By working with local artisans, who still use traditional dyeing and printing methods, maintain a symbiotic relationship with the community and ensuring that traditional craft and heritage lives on.
Its story is also very surprising, and gives hope in an often ruthless industry: recently, the two young women hired the licensed seamstresses of a Balinese company dedicated to swimwear that was relocating abroad. Taking advantage of the experience of these seamstresses, Lia and Yuli decided to devote their first collection to swimwear, before moving into ready-to-wear for the coming seasons.
