Ummagumma store window with a DBD dress in between outfits from Chotronette.

Me, in a few of my spring 09 collection sample dresses. I actually found these pics while I was searching for something else and realized I had not posted them until now. Also, I did not win the Fashion Up voting contest but gathering 636 votes is pretty amazing, right? That is why I want to send a big big ,thank you, each and every one of you who voted for me. There were so many people who do not know me personally, but who showed their support, it was actually an amazingly motivating experience overall.

There is also a new contest going on, organized by Ambition, where you can win one of the Diana Bobar dresses pictured above, from my latest fall 2009 collection. Participate after reading the instruction here. Best of luck!

I would love it if the winner would be one of my blog readers, because I would actually love it to meet you all. Maybe the best way for a mass meet and greet would be if I launched a book. How cool would that be? To meet and greet you at my book signing. :)

Patience, I say!

I have all this sample dresses at home and decided to make a sale, maybe you like either one of them and want to get it. This means I can have the dress shipped right away wherever you are, you do not have to wait two weeks for the production. Most of them are a 38, 40 size and they are priced at 70 Euro, down from 100 Euro, initial price. (*note: the last two dresses are not for sale, they are orders).

You ca also try them on if you come by my atelier in Timisoara. For more info do contact me (diana(at)sofashon.com). Do click to see the full post and read their description and sizing information:

Ioana and her precious Noa, both wearing Diana Bobar spray painted dresses (Noa also wears a pink, tiny DB bolero and a Josephine headpiece). I am sure they stood out in a crowd. How adorable is her tiny handbag? LOVE! :)

Roxana came today for her order and while I wrote two emails she already chose three more dresses to wear, from the samples that I have here around. They fit her pretty good, so I did not have to make major changes.

She loved this white/creme rayon dress and wanted to wear it backwads. It is theoretically the other way around, but it looks great this way too.

Silk top with crocheted details.

Long creme dress with crocheted details and in the secnd picture there is also a waistband from my fall 09 collection.

Two new shapes of DB tutu skirts: cream tulle and a combination of hot pink and orange tulle. You like?

The Romanian Organization for Art and Culture, together with its partners, planned the charitable ,Hand To Hand, event, happening in two days (on the 26.06) in Timisoara, Romania. There will be t-shirt painting and theater workshops, a paintings auction and a cool concert ending with a party.

I would probably go if I did not have so much work to finish this week (love love love Suie Paparude - always wanted to see them in a concert:) ). If you do get there, have fun!

A cute range of Diana Bobar tutu skirts will soon be available through the Dutch online store FrouFrous. Our collaboration was great and these are the ones Leonie (a sweetheart with fantastic style) ordered for the store:

I love black lace. I love it for dresses and I love to wear it underneath. I believe black lace lingerie is the sexiest and most sophisticated there can be. Sure, because I work a lot making dresses, I do not really have time to dress up all the time, but I still like to wear undergarments that make me feel good. And these balconette bra items would be my favorite. Simple, sophisticated and sexy. What more can one want?

And that is my favorite shape of panties, pictured below. I think I stopped wearing colored lingerie for a while now. Because I do still love black. With red lips of course and super-high heels. :)
