"Women should celebrate their curves, and I thank the Lord that a designer has finally realized the needs of today's 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 today's 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.NOTE TO EDITORS: DANNY GOLSHAN AVAILABLE FOR INTERVIEWContact:

Are Your Medicine Causing Your Thinning Hair?
Hair Growth
Hair usually grows about half an inch per month, although this slows as you age. Each hair remains on your head for two to six years, and during most of this time is continually growing. An average person has about 100,000 hairs.
As a hair gets older, it may enter a resting stage in which it remains on your head but doesn't grow. At the end of this stage, the hair usually falls out. Usually, the follicle replaces it in about six months.
During this time, your hair is in its resting stage.
But many factors can disrupt this cycle. The result can be that your hair falls out early or isn't replaced.
What Causes Thinning Hair
Thinning hair can be caused by drugs, including: birth control pills, anticoagulants,...

Bananas: All That Potassium and Carmen Miranda Too!
Bananas: All That Potassium And Carmen Miranda Too! "?We have old-fashioned tomahto, Long Island potahto, but Yes, we have no bananas. We have no bananas today.."- Folk song by Frank Silver and Irving Cohen (1923)Whether you are off to Rio following the colorful trail of Carmen Miranda's fruit-filled hat or seated on your couch contemplating the universe, the banana can always come along for the ride. There are so many aspects to this strange and wonderful fruit. Even its shape is a bit mysterious; conjuring images of tropical islands and sun-filled days. Did you know that the word "banana" originates from the Arabic and means finger? Doesn't that make you wonder where the rest of the hand is? I have been hooked on bananas ever since I was a child, and Miss Chiquita, drawn by Dik Brown who also created the Campbell kids, used to sing to me through the television in my parents' living room.
(I always wondered why she never had her own show. She was so much cuter than Ed Sullivan.)...
