Artfully Disheveled is the baby of one Chris Berre and Michael Palmer; the former All American who I met in Cincinondon, the later I don’t in fact know but who gives excellent penmanship as to which the following building of the Artfully Disheveled brand attests, going from this…
…to this…
…to this, their final hot and seared brand label…
Artfully Disheveled is designed for one specific Man.
He’s the well-dressed rebel.
He’s the tailored misfit.
To that, I would add…it is also for one specific Woman…because I don’t have a man at the moment (shall we get on this, God?) and I plan on buying and rocking their ties and bow ties myself. Belt. Necklace. Hair-band. Cuff / bracelet. Garter. Blindfold. Handcuff. (‘Artfully Disheveled. For the woman who knows that her creativity is sexier than her demi-cup.’) Whatever; it’s mine. (All American, y’all best be deliverin’ to Canada. All American says they do.)
Additionally, the gentlemen at AD suggested that “The women out there buying AD for their significant others already have that innate sense of style that they wish to pass on. We’ve seen a lot of the same women create innovative ways to wear our men’s collection. There is also something very powerful about seeing a woman wearing a tie.” (And by powerful, we all understand they mean “like, wicked hot”, only thankfully these gentlemen are anything but Valley and so instead are gracious re the female state, rather than her physical appeal. Amazing; How can you not love them?)
The imaginative processes for you to bear in mind as you cruise their line, is one which usually started years back in the most inconspicuous moments, such as when visiting Shoredtich, in London, and they wrote: “Style is rooted in everyday life. From nature’s colors of the season to the hustle and grit of making it in the city. Our ties are born from our life experiences and the world around us.”
…that then influenced their design palette…
…and resulted in this gorgeous tie…
…which upon first viewing reminded me of fields of lavender and wheat.
Buy’em and bookmark’em; but only if your thighs don’t fit in to skinny jeans, men – because the Artfully Disheveled man has thighs. (Note: This reference to the male form does not come from those at AD, but rather from your webMistress who likes her men…male rather than woman, thank you.)
Now, go be the amazing consumers for which our beloved country continues to rape and pillage other parts of the world.
It’s your right.
(Once again, please note: This reference to global political / economic / social not-so-niceness does not come from those at AD, but rather from your webMistress who likes her warm and fuzzy concept of global citizenship as she is often a lunatic hippie.)
Godspeed!
P.S. Between the tie and the logo, what do you see?
I see a tailor marking each tie individually. He is behind a thick wooden door, atop stone floors, and next to a warm fire. He drives a motorcycle and lives in a penthouse in Chicago.
For realsies.

Please note that Chris Berre will soon enough be the first guest blogger on onefemalecanuck(dot)com, writing about male / female stuffs. Don’t know precisely the what, as I am leaving that to his creativity, but if it’s anything like the imagination alive in AD, then it will be exquisite.
Oh! love their stuff!!!!!! That hankie with the guns is so sexy!!!!
They don’t have much, but they’re all really really nice.
Thanks for pointing the way, Maha!
Hugs,

On behalf of Thomas: They have excellent attention to detail, it seems. Not surprising that you enjoy their line – I will ensure that one of my holiday gifts I receive “from Santa” is one of your friends’ items.
You should have met your Hot Yoga Challenge now, so congratulations on that as well, Maha.
Thomas
Nice! Fucking love the “Office-Pub-Discotheque-Country-Club” detail!
I can see you rocking the six shooter
This is a hot-ass description of their product, by the way, especially the strike-out art, hah! -lily
Yeah and what Thomas said about your hot yoga challenge, Maha. You are amazing!! SIX WEEKS amazing!! -lily
A young fresh line with some very unique pieces. Like Thomas, I will do the same.
Congratulations on finishing your Challenge (yesterday?)!
If you would post a photo of you in any one of these compromising yoga positions…we could all learn something.
Please do not block my ip address, you know I have no control over what you do to me, Ms. One Female Canuck.
