Persecuted almost 10 years ago for once wearing a miniskirt in Iran, chief designer and CEO Tala Raassi has an inspirational story that has empowered the 83 contestants from all over the world. Rasssi celebrates freedom and the female body through her designs. “I am so thrilled to be involved with an organization that really empowers women all over the world. I strive for my designs to embody the soul of the woman, and my aim is nothing short of putting the female body on the pedestal where it belongs, setting women around the world free to express beauty, style, and equality while being true to themselves”.
For Raassi, her Dar Be Dar is more than a swimwear line – she seeks to promote freedom of expression for women through sensual apparel that accentuates and rejoices the female body. To Raassi, fashion equals freedom, and having her suits worn by the contestants of the Miss Universe Pageant is an honor for her.
