I’ve recently discovered upcoming New York based designer Ardistia Dwiasri and have a lot of love for pieces from her Fall/Winter 2007 and Spring/Summer 2007 collections.

Ardistia is “all about self indulgence and treats, summarising the essence of a women’s inner strength, beauty and desire, drawing on confidence from the whimisical secret detail in every piece of clothing”.

I don’t know about all that but I am definitely a fan of her sharp, unique silhouettes, particularly the garbadine jackets with the extensive metal button detailing.

Having a day job (unfortunately) that requires me to dress like I mean business, I would love to have some of her tailored jackets to add a unique yet still professional element to my ‘workwear’ wardrobe.
