Sou Brette by Muqliza Imroni

WELCOME!

2011-01-24T22:11:00.000-08:00

Sou Brette was conceived in 2005 by Muqliza Imroni, in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Inspirations for Sou Brette grow out of everything and find 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.

She believes a piece of jewellery is timeless and protean. Whether the person is just starting to bloom or getting along in years, going for lunch with friends or out to an evening dance, a piece of jewellery will find its way in.

Currently 26 years of age, Muqliza has been working independently and collectively in a multitude of media: fashion, illustration, textile, to name a few. Despite this collection of interests, her distinctively bizarre, eclectic, and self-indulgent touches have been consistently evident.

To her, Sou Brette is more than just jewellery. It is an affectionate memento from Muqliza to the wearer.

UNKNOWN WATERS

2010-05-17T19:13:00.001-07:00

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

‎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 was born from this illusive innocence situated beneath the surface of the sea.

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.

Unknown Waters Preview

2010-05-17T19:11:00.000-07:00

Sou Brette's newest collection Unknown Waters is inspired by the 1953 Russian film Sadko (released in the United States with the script adapted by a young Francis Ford Coppola) and the work of a realist painter, Ilya Repin, titled "Sadko in The Underwater Kingdom".

The story of Sadko is based on a Russian mythology, about a musician and traveller, who travels to the sea and the underwater kingdom to seek and bring happiness to the people in his city.

Sou Brette's Unknown Waters will be previewed for the first time at Brightspot Market at Plaza Indonesia Extension July 8th-11th 2010. Also included is a special colorway made only for Brightspot. The full range of jewelry will be available in stores starting September 2010.

RUNIC

2010-01-24T22:05:00.000-08:00

Runic was inspired by tales of an apocalyptic future. Narratives so destructive that color had become a memory of the past. Most of the materials used in Runic were drawn by that concept: cotton ropes, polished metal, safety pins, and Sou Brette's staple element, resin.

Runic is meant to symbolize humanity's desire to make the best out of any situation, to embody the beauty in despair, and to empower the beauty from within.

The future is ancient. (click on image for larger view)
