Dominicana Moda 2010 took place from the 18th to the 23rd of October, in the Hotel Occidental Embajador in Dominican Republic’s capital city of Santo Domingo. The event was a glamourous affair with numerous talented Dominican designers – both established and emerging, showcasing their fashion creations, alongside a number of ‘Invited’ International designers, such as Oscar de la Renta, Tatiana Torres and Sonia Chang. On Thursday the 21st of October, I was lucky enough to experience the buzz, glamour and excitement of Dominicana Moda 2010 for myself, on a trip organised by the Hogar del Niño with a large group of Casa de Campo and La Romana ladies. Our tickets, purchased through the Hogar del Niño (and with the money being donated to the Hogar del Niño) were for the fashion shows Jusef Sanchez, Juan Cotes and Jeanette Limas – all of which were spectacular. (To read and see photos of the trip with the ladies, click here – this account focuses a little more on the actual fashion.)
Jusef Sanchez The first show to take to the catwalk was the collection of Jusef Sanchez, who presented a futuristic-inspired collection, with bold metallic details.
Juan Cotes Juan Cotes’ collection was feminine and beautiful with some flowing crepe designs and modern, formal evening gowns – sexy and suitable for the average woman. [nggallery id=582]
Jeanette Limas Jeanette’s collection was creative, fresh, bold and sexy with modern lines and interesting curves. I loved it! [nggallery id=583]
Fortunately for us Jeanette Limas is a La Romana local and is ALREADY working with clients in Casa de Campo, creating Jeanette Limas’ originals for us Casa de Campo ladies who need a new fresh wardrobe for the upcoming holiday season!  As I am a BIG Jeanette Limas’ fan you can expect to see me ‘modelling’ Jeannette’s latest creations over the Christmas period – let’s just hope I can do her beautiful work justice! I will be publishing more about Jeanette soon, but in the meantime if you would like to contact her, her contact details are as follows: Cel. 809 760 52 85 Tel. 809 550 92 78 Email: jeanettelimas@gmail.com

Jeannette Limas’ closes the show in spectacular style!
