DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT | Astryd Roy Lister From a young age, Astryd expressed a strong interest in style and fashion, always up to date with the latest trends throughout her travels.

World traveled and knowledgeable of many cultures, Astryd always remained true to her Taino and Arawak roots, incorporating them into marry of her creations.

Her imagination is on overdrive, conjuring design, materials, fabrics, all into the best possible synergy. Astryd states that she is never satisfied, but blessed to always be striving in avid curiosity.

Fast forward to today, with her family in toe, her interest has morphed into a very strong and focused passion, while she tries to balance work and career.

One can see these elements manifested in her collections and artistic pieces, and though avant-garde influences. Her creative aesthetic remains timeless.
