In the matter of fashion , because that’s what I promote here , today I want to expose you some of  the best fashion designers from my country. Each of these designers brings their own style, ranging from urban avant-garde to original prêt-a-porter to stunning haute-couture.

Doina Levintza is the most established fashion designer of Romania and probably the most famous one. Her background in theatre costumes design transcends into her sumptuous gowns, her trademark being hand-made lace and broidery of dramatic effect and utter delicacy. Her creations are timeless pieces of otherworldly beauty.

Dan Coma is the first designer of luxury accessories: his bags and shoes are the favorites of almost anybody who is “somebody” in Romania. He manages to stay on top through the original designs but also through the exquisite quality of his creations, that could easily rival with the international big names such as Prada, Gucci, Louis Vuitton or Manolo Blanhik.

Ana Maria Lungu, returned, after an internship at Yves Saint Laurent, to Eastern Europe and its social and historical context, which she believes is ¨provocative and widely open to all kinds of artistic experiments”. She received the Kent Explora prize for innovation in design and also the Pantene New Look prize for most promising new designer. Her clothes are colorful and enriched with accessories that perfectly match the ornamental garments. The careful association of details gives her collections a complex unity.

Carmen Secareanu won in 2004 the first place at the design innovation contest K- Explora, costume section, with the project "unusual clothes for usual people”. Her creations are often shown in numerous magazines such as "Elle", "Beau Monde", "Cosmopolitan" , "Tabu", "Design", etc. Her autumn-winter collection 2006 was declared by "Elle" magazine the best collection presented at "Romanian Fashion Week".

Elena Tibulca is an avant-garde creator of accessories. A necklace signed by her is a statement. You wear it with all your soul or you hate it from the beginning. The little tube of Murano glass is to her hands as the color is to the painter: nothing specific before, everything in the world after. She feels the color as a painter, the form as a designer, the volume as a sculptor.

Romanita Iovan is a former fashion model. Ms. Iovan launched her Romanitza fashion house in 1991. The label soon became one of the most successful in Romania, and Ms. Iovan's inimitable style and work ethic helped to build her reputation as a highly creative and accomplished designer and business woman. The exquisite quality and aristocratic air of her designs have earned her distinctive runway shows a special respect and recognition.

Catalin Botezatu is one of Romania's top designers.Mr.Botezatu began to work as a fashion designer in 1992 and established his own fashion house in 1996. He is one of the few major fashion designers who directs and styles his own shows and makes all his accessories (jewelry, shoes, and hats). His distinguished clientele includes politicians, socialites, VIPs, entertainers and celebrities. Nevertheless, his beautiful couture designs appeal to every woman looking to bring out her femme fatale side through sensual, refined and sophisticated fashions.
