DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT: DIMEPIECE
Tuesday, August 21, 2007
This week spotlight focuses on Dimepiece. Dimpiece, a hip, urban, and edgy collection comprised of funky tees is a lifestyle and brand aimed at catering to “all the boss b*tches dipped in sauce”. These are the females that have the potential to make a positive impact and consistently turn heads. Summed up in a mission statement:
A DimePiece™ is a woman who appeals to her audience with genuine swag. She is a self-governing revolutionary who embodies all that is sexy. She proclaims her opinion and attitude through her adventurous dress. She is educated by the books as well as the streets. Our products are for all who want to make a statement and aren’t afraid to leave the restrictions at the door. Lets be ago-getter, a kitten with claws, a fashion aficionado and a memorable individual who is essentially the perfect ten.
Dimepiece was started by Ashley Dimes, Laura Marie (and another addition behind the scenes) in Los Angeles three years ago. The two ladies (pictured left) both received fashion degrees and started their seven piece line the summer of 2007 with the intent to change up things for women in urban fashion.
“We really felt like it was important to portray a positive message and substantial meaning behind the gear
itself.” The ladies say in a press release. “It was crucial for us that we created an identity that speaks for itself through its taste and visual communication. We want to avoid gimmicks and the biting schemes that are seen all-to-often in the market.”
