from which designer is that costume on Dahlal?

rakkasah_barbara · 09-21-2007, 10:38 AM

Ladies please help me on this dropdead gorgeous costume on Dahlal

When you click on Costumes it appears next to all designers names. You know it's the grey/green/brown-ish costume with a sort of animal print, crossing bra straps in the front and 2 high side slits and the lady is holding that cool caffe & lime veil (see thumbnail)

I just love this one and went back and forth through the Dahlal site a couple of times but cannot find it anywhere for sale

Can anyone please tell me who's design this is and where to get more info on it?!

This design is one by Tim, who works with Dahlal. :)

He's wonderful, isn't he? I'm sure if you e-mail Dahlal, she can get you in touch with him. :)

i think tanya from SF already snatched that one up. I heard that Tim is working on more designs and his line may be on dahlal soon. at least i hope. it is gorgeous, i thought it may be a sahar when i first saw it.

I did the same thing, I went through the costumes looking for that one, it is gorgeous!

OMG, I've been adoring that costume for so long now, wondering the same thing!! It's beautiful!! Can't wait to see more of Tim's designs.

I was wondering who designed it and why it wasn't in the site to sell!

I have to add my amazing huzzahs to Tim as well!

Maybe you could request that he could make a similar costume? I wouldn't doubt that he could take custom requests anyway.

He's also very helpful if you need help in altering costumes that you already have.

Last week I spoke to him about making my dream: an all-rhinestone costume... or maybe at the very least, a bra and belt set!

Wow, I thought it was a Sahar, too.

How cool, maybe we'll have our own home-grown designer costumes soon!

Thanks Yasmin! What a great job Tim did WOW! For sure I'm e-mailing him

... on layaway, hee hee .......

(PS -- when I contacted them about it, I thought it was a Sahar, too!)

If you don't mind telling us, how much was it? I LOVE it! Don't think the criss cross bra would work for me; hopefully they put more of his stuff online. I met Tim in Vegas and he's a great guy - very helpful and nice. Dahlal is lucky to have him!

Actually, I was surprised -- I thought it would be less ..... but I kind of got myself into it (figuratively, not literally) and decided it might be worth the risk.....it does look like a Sahar, doesn't it ..... it was a little over $800 -- It was a few months ago and I don't rememer if the silk veil was included or not. If I couldn't put it on payments, I might have passed on it it ..... you know, the denial thing kicked in......only $200 something each time ......yikes.......I'll get some pictures up when I finally get it & ya'all can weigh in.....

wigglewhiz · 09-23-2007, 01:28 PM

Really? Wow, I thought for sure it looked like an Eman. I love it, it's absolutely gorgeous. Jellus!!!

Is that you modeling all the new costumes for Shahrzad? You look so pretty in that black & white Raqia Hassan ..... !

joanneraks · 09-25-2007, 12:22 AM

I keep finding myself unconsciously searching the Dahlal pages for that one too. Thought Sahar for sure. good for Tim!

latriamou · 09-25-2007, 08:23 AM

hi tanya. yes it is. she always wants me to model. i have never done that many costume changes in one day before lol
i'm sure she'll want me back once those sell. she had 5,6 of us there and we still didn't try on everything that she doesnt have pictures of. i know the mannequin helps but it's not the same as seeing it on someone's body

latriamou · 09-25-2007, 08:54 AM

how do we get in touch with Tim directly? just email through the website?

I'm sure if you e-mail or call Dahlal she can get you in touch with him.

I actually need to call him as well...we'd discussed him designing a costume for me, and while I can't do it right now, I'd at least like to start bouncing ideas off him. :)

He did a great job on that green on though, I LOVE it!!!

rakkasah_barbara · 09-26-2007, 07:11 AM

I e-mailed Dahlal to inquire about the costume and Tim's other designs and got this reply:

This particular costume has already sold but Tim can create something with a similar feel. He is currently working on several pieces that we will be showcasing shortly.

He can also create something just for you if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind piece. You're welcome to give us a call and we can discuss possibilities for you in our Diamond Line.
