About Dina
Dina founded her first design company in 1974. As a
former model, Dina makes it her business to know her customer and understand the sexy curves of a woman’s body. Dina’s designs range from the perfect fit for a size 2 beauty to the curvaceous size 14 woman.
The decision to create dresses in the business was her daughter’s idea, Orna BAR-EL, whose inspiration and
spirit brought forth beauty and elegance that still lives on
today in every Dina Bar-el dress. Dina continues to design
and create each beautiful design thoughtfully in memory
of her loving daughter.
Dina Bar-el dresses continue to grace the red carpet on
numerous celebrities.
Her designs are sought after and much desired in
Hollywood as well as boutiques and stores around the
world with an International appeal.
Dina was born in Germany and came to the United
States at the age of 18. 
She began designing t-shirts from her living room, forming
an enterprise that quickly grew into the multi-
million dollar savy dress making operation that exists
today. She is a testament to the rags to riches
opportunities that make dreams a reality.
She works in her designer showroom in downtown Los Angeles.
