Feature Designer: Collette Dinnigin


We all have heard the names, Chanel, Dior, Marchesa, Gucci, Prada. Those are the designers whose merchandise are produced into cheap knock offs and sold in the streets of Rome and Paris. They are bought by inocent women trying to feel that they, themselves are part of a revolving universe of its own. Well, in truth, it is often the designers that remain modest who come out on top. When shuffling through designers names you dont often find Collette Dinnigin. Collette Dinnigin, a New York designer has recently released her Resort 2011 collection. Her lower-range prices have caused a stir, do to the beautiful quality and 60s inspired clothing line. With lots of shorrt dresses, and vibrant and frilly babydoll dresses, Dinnigin has pulled off a line that transforms from a girly girl by day, to a chic club girl at night. All of her smocks retail for under $350. Collette said it is more about easy dressing.The line is abounding with corsetted dresses and very full skirts. One highight was a pink cotton version stitched with white raffia at the neckline. On a more versatile note, Dinnigin stirred up lace and studs to contrast the optimistic look of the girly dresses. Collette started her carreer in 1995, releasing a ready-to-wear clothing line in Paris. Dinnigin is from Australia and has been designing since 1990. Collette Dinnigin continues to design and is believed to one day become as big as some of the names listed above.
