Just a few random ideas of 'artsy' gis or ones that I consider to have a smart design:

Muaewear
Arte Suave
Bull Terrier
Omega Maniac
Scramble
Tatami Fightwear (pinup, honey badger, terere, etc)
CTRL Industries

Define "artsy"? Because for the most part I think a lot of bjj gis look gaudy (Bullterrior i'm looking at you).

I have a couple of Isamis, but aside from that I prefer buying plain looking Mizuno and Fushida judogis.

Fit, durability, quality material, and stitching should be factors that should concern you more.

In addition to the above, I would add the following to the 'artsy' mix of gis to consider:



SAVE THE EARTH gi by Gawakoto

and



Samulime...although their koi gi was better looking, not sure it is available anymore.

There's also this...



though I couldn't possibly comment

The Ronin Legacy Gi

The inside print technique is the same as the Muae but the main difference is from left to right the design is continuous and not "patterned"

The new prana gis have a decent amount of bling, they're in between SYR and keiko raca
