April 4, 2004--The intuition and remarkable creativity of fashion designer Donna Vinci has garnered him a devoted following amongst African American churchgoing and professional women.

Women should celebrate their curves, and I thank the Lord that a designer has finally realized the needs of todays women, said Grammy-nominated and notoriously fashionable gospel diva Dottie Peoples, the spokeswoman for Donna Vinci Couture. The D.V.C. line by Donna Vinci is a favorite of mine because they make ensembles that include matching accessories, and because the cut is very flattering to todays full-figured woman. Whether you are a size 8 or 18, Donna Vinci aims to find the luxurious combination of comfort and fashion in each design so that you can always look your best.   

The average American woman today wears a plus-size. Furthermore, an estimate places the plus-size market at over $32 billion, or about one-fourth of the total sales in fashion, and is expected to increase to $47 billion in 2005. These are compelling statistics that cannot be ignored and Donna Vinci designs cater to this demographic like no other designer in the market. Considering these facts, Donna Vinci designs are likely to resonate with women and grow in popularity for years to come, said lead designer Danny Golshan. Golshan is a third generation fashion designer whose family hails from the same region that has produced hand-made Persian carpets that are known because of their stunning quality, for over a thousand years. He realizes more than anyone else the reality of the modern fashion industry: Elegant fashions custom cut to flatter figures are more relevant now than ever as women face increasingly unrealistic portrayals of beauty and body image in all forms of media. Perhaps creating exquisite high-quality clothing for the full figured woman is not the answer to addressing the distorted body images, but it is a reflection of the growing determination of women everywhere to be judged for who they are and what they have to offer as vibrant members of their community.

When I look my best, it helps me feel and sing my best, Peoples said. Those who wear Donna Vinci designs are always sure to feel their best.

Donna Vinci has been crafting elegant suits for over 25 years and was founded by Ebrahim Golshan in 1981.
