The History of ISYL

Marco — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 13:42:00 GMT

n 530 A.D., in the northern Amazonian region of Brazil currently known as the State of Amapa, a very distinct civilization was thriving . They were known asISYLIANS , and the place where they lived was known as the kingdom of ISYL.

For one to get to the kingdom of ISYL, they had to hike through the Amazon until they reached the northern tip. The human inhabitants of the Amazon rainforests only allowed those with good intentions to traverse the secret Amazonian roads, which kept the deviants away. Once within this kingdom, migrants were mesmerized by what they saw! The people of ISYL were undeniably beautiful! While everyone did not look the same, they were all beautiful in their own way. This astonished visitors, because they had never seen so many beautiful people, who looked different from each other, together, within the same society.

Not only were the ISYLIANS beautiful, their clothing and their homes appeared to have been designed for royalty. Their homes, similar to many of the inhabitants of ancient Brazil at that time, were mostly comparable to a mixture of Indian huts and Greek houses. What made their homes different was that the roofs and doors were speckled with bits of Gold and Gemstones of various kinds, and using an ink mixture made from Manganese and animal intestines, the outside of the homes was fully painted. Their clothing was also spectacular, similar to ancient Egyptian/Grecian clothing, decorated in Gold and Manganese paints.

The ISYLIANS were also a very polite society who welcomed all visitors. The reason their society was made up of so many diverse people was that many visitors never left! Once you learned the language of the ISYLIANS, and became proficient at some useable skill, you automatically became a part of their society.

The rulers of the kingdom of ISYL were a very creative family whose names are still unknown. What is known is that once you were selected to rule the kingdom (rulers were selected by a group of spiritual healers whenever the people felt a change was needed) your past name no longer mattered. Your name became a combination of your title and the kingdom’s name. This is how the last rulers of the ISYLIANS got their names, Princess ISYL and Prince ISYL.

As youths, the Princess was much more popular than her older brother. For one, she was the most beautiful girl in ISYL, so she always received a lot of attention. Her talent as a seamstress also made her very popular. Princess ISYL was the most talented garment maker within the kingdom, and arguably, all of Brazil. People would come from far and wide to purchase or trade for her clothing.

At age 17, Princess ISYL’s parents and Prince ISYL all became suddenly ill. No one understood what the illness was, so there was no cure available. What also was not understood was why the Princess was not also sick. It was soon determined that because Princess ISYL spent much of her time sewing new garments and associating with her friends in a home that was specifically built to help her with her business endeavors, the illness must have come from something within the royal home. The conclusion was too late, as the Princess’ immediate family died from the illness. It was later found that they died from accidental Manganese dust poisoning, due to Manganese being used to create the new royal chambers. Princess ISYL became the ruler of ISYL.

As a tribute to her parents, Princess ISYL refused to take on the moniker of Queen, and the people respected her decision. While Princess ISYL ruled the land, Princess ISYL’s designs became even more sought after. Normally, a royal family’s clothing would be made by the royal tailoress, but Princess ISYL personally made all of her family’s clothing. She also taught her style to many of the locals, who began dressing the entire kingdom using the styles popularized by the princess.

Because the ISYLIANS were a peaceful people, they were unprepared for what was to come around 1023 A.D. As other kingdoms began learning of the beauty of the ISYLIANS and their prowess with garment making, these kingdoms began training warriors who could make it through the Amazon. Many of the armies never made it through the dangerous Amazon Rainforests, being killed by either the human inhabitants or the animal inhabitants. In 1023 A.D., one army, the Siberians, made it through. Within hours, they destroyed the kingdom of ISYL, and Princess ISYL disappeared. After that day, many ISYLIANS dispersed into the rainforests or went further into the center of Brazil. The rest were eventually integrated into the new societies formed by the Siberians, Portuguese, Africans, French and British.

It has been said that centuries after the fall of the ISYLIANS, descendants built statues in honor of Princess ISYL and their history, but they have yet to be found. However, archaeologists have found other remnants of an advanced civilization in that area, remnants that are over 2000 years old.

We are the descendants of Princess ISYL and the ISYLIAN civilization. All beautiful people, who have pure hearts, and love fashion, are descendants of the ISYLIANS. No matter your race, color, sex, or religion, we are one family, just as the inhabitants of the kingdom of ISYL once were. We at ISYL are here to bring back the fashion focused lifestyle of Princess ISYL and the ISYLIANS, blending unique urban designs with the flash and glamour of Egyptian and Brazilian beauty.

……………………OKAY, you got us! This isn’t a true story! But it sounded good, didn’t it? Once you get tired of hearing this story, we’ll make up another story for you! Hee hee hee…………….

Ewa the Diva!

ISYL Marketing — Sun, 10 Jun 2007 03:00:00 GMT

kay, Ewa is not a Diva! She happens to be one of the first models for ISYL! Ewa was a friend of ISYL's founder, and as a favor, in 2006, participated in an ISYL shoot for sample clothing. Her sparkle with the camera immediately resulted in her being asked to model for ISYL for more photo shoots. Ewa was in ISYL's first ever street shoot, photographed at train stations, at Macy's, and at Milennium Park. She also was one of the first models to glue herself to a walkie-talkie and give away free ISYL gift bags on Chicago's famed Magnificent Mile!

Ewa's beauty and personality are rare in this industry. Some models are pretty, some sweet. But many do not posses both attributes, whereas Ewa is one of the few who does. At photo shoots, you would not think that she just began modeling a couple of years ago. She has a timeless look, similar to Elizabeth Hurley, and piercing blue eyes that know how to find the camera.

When it comes to fittings, Ewa has a frame that is meant to wear SEXY things. She is not one of those boney, sickely looking models you see on the catwalks today. ISYL will only work with healthy models, which results in sexy models, and Ewa is a good example.
