#Red #competition #bikinis are very popular!
Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love. Red is a very emotionally intense color. ❤️

About me
About Me
Since moving to Singapore, I have been networking to be able to build my business. I updated my bio so my new partnerships, clients and network of business friends, know what I have done and where I am heading. It’s very important in business to do this so you connect with the right people!
I left school at the age of 16 to follow my dream of becoming a designer. My experience came from working with some of the most prestigious swimwear labels in Australia, as their design assistant. My passion grew in to creating my own labels which lead in to a popular local boutique workout wear label called Bonehead sportswear and the Who is Angie? Swimwear label, which became a popular national and international published boutique bikini label.
With 20 years’ experience in the bodybuilding, health & fitness Industry, my knowledge and experience came from competing nationally and internationally and winning titles in figure, fitness and bikini competitions as well as being a renowned body reshaping coach with leading high profile clients, TV, radio and magazines. This led me in to releasing my very own work out DVDs and cook book called DC Workout!
In 2011 I decided to concentrate on my bikini passion which was still in the fitness industry, but instead of me jumping up on stage I now travel and dress Figure, Fitness and Bikini Models around the world to look a million dollars for stage and photo shoots. I only make 4 bikinis per style each season in my collections, to keep my bikinis Exclusive and purely Australian made
.
With my knowledge, experience and secret tips on how to get stage ready, I enjoy guest speaking with keen competitors around the globe, about how you can look a million dollars on stage with your bikini, shoes, tan, hair, makeup and stage presence.
I believe in empowering woman in the fitness industry! Competing the natural healthy way is what I like to promote. In 2013 I started the Fit Bikini Model Extravaganza to set a standard for healthy Fit Bikini Role Models which is growing throughout Australia. There is one show held a year on the 10th of October 2015 on the Gold Coast, to be crowned Miss Fit Bikini Model Australia – for more information please follow this link www.fitbikinimodelextravaganza.com
Thank you for your support and I look forward to dressing you for your next competition or swim bikini www.danacarmontbikinis.com

Dana Carmont Bikinis in Singapore Newspaper
When moving to Singapore 5 weeks ago, my main focus was to meet
with the key people in my industry, bodybuilding, fitness and bikini models as my
passion is dressing Athletes all over the world to jump up on stage and look a
billion dollars!
A few meeting were had with the wonderful Dennis
Tew, the Singapore bodybuilding president who has been so helpful and generous
by welcoming me in to his Singapore Team. I was invited to go along to their
weigh in, to meet and greet his athletes before heading to the World Titles in
Mumbai.
Competitions Excite me. Being a competitor myself,
I know the adrenaline that is felt when prepping for a comp. I was so keen to dress the entire team in Dana
carmont Bikinis, but time was of the essence. Tucked away in my bikini travel
case I had a Blue Treasure Island body building bikini that was ready to hit
the stage, with all the bling needed to make the competitor shine!
Sue Suharni, one of the competitors was keen for a new kini. I got
excited and said awesome, let’s head to the change room to see how it fits! While Sue was trying it on I heard a few
little happy sniggering noises and I was getting anxious to see it on her – as you
do being a bikini designer but also knowing it was going to fit her after
seeing her physique! When she walked out
I was jumping up and down saying, it fits you perfectly like a glove and we
were both then excited.
I was told of the great news, that Sue had taken the World Title
for her division and was over the moon and as I say it’s the body that makes
the bikini and if the competitor wins, it’s a HUGE bonus for me. I do my part
by making you look a billion dollars on stage and you then have to ROCK it!
I would like to Congratulate Sue for her win and for making it to
the Singapore Straits Time Newspaper and Rocking my bikini.

Stage Bikini Tips
The next season for bodybuilding/fitness competitions starts in March for most countries and competitors start looking/shopping around for bikinis now!!
With my collections you can purchase onlinehttp://www.danacarmont.com/ and book in your bikini and it will be sent out in January or you can book your ticket to come along to my VIP bikini showingin February around Australia http://www.danacarmont.com/aust-tour.html and Canada http://www.danacarmont.com/canada-tour.html delivery time when you come to a VIP bikini showing is 3-7 working days from when your bikini is ordered and paid.
When choosing a stage bikini, you can give any illusion on stage, you just need to know what to do and here are a few tips!
* Choose a colour that matches with your complexion _ remember darker colors slim line, lighter colors such as whites will make you look wider!
* A bikini needs to FIT properly on the bottom, front pouch and the bikini top shouldn't flip or your breasts will fall out - that way you look neat and compact!
* If you need to give the illusion of being top heavy a thick diamonte/ chain strap will do the job with padding to give you a bigger bust line
* If you would like to look a little smaller in the Bust line then the thinnest straps are best so you give the illusion of of a balanced bust line!
* If you have a short torso - opt for a V-front that will open your mid section and look longer!
* If you have a long torso and want to look balanced, then a straight across kini bottom will do the job as it cuts the length
* If you have short legs its best to wear your kini above the hip to lengthen the legs
* If you have long legs and want to cut them, then wear your bikini across your hip bone
* Looking after your bikini is easy to do by using a dry spray tan, not a wet tan such as creams - these will wreck your bikini
* Dont spend to much on a bikini the average price for nice basic bikini is around the $180 - $295 with diamonte connectors. If you are wanting to add bling I advise not to pay more the $500 depending on the design your after.

A Bikini Designers dream is to be featured in top notch Fashion Magazines with great write ups BUT the biggest bonus for me was in 2007 was I came across an article in Sunday Life called The Rules : Swimwear and my label Who is Angie? was featured with some of the top Bikini Brands in Autsralia such as Seafolly (who I use to work for) Moontide, Speedo, Bond eye, Hallican Bodie, Lisa Ho , Camillia & Marc, Gotex and Zimmerman!

New Collections
I get very excited when my new
collections are released.
The launch of my new Swim Collection
for summer called Lucky dip is your basic triangle bikini style and available
NOW online The Copacabana collection is my new Bandu style with a variety of
prints will be released on the 3rd of the December here in Singapore!
I keep my collections Exclusive by
only making 4 of everything as being a bikini designer I notice a lot of same
bikinis when I go to beach or pool locations! There is nothing worse than someone
lying next to you on the beach with the same bikini!
If you haven’t purchased one of my bikinis I can guarantee you
that you won’t be disappointed as I love to keep my kinis bottoms with a non-saggy
bum too! Back in 2007 I had a huge leap in to the boutique bikini market with
my bikini label called who is Angie? with controversial media expose on “no
more sagging bums ’ on Current Affairs, Daily Telegraph, Cosmopolitan, Cleo and
Famous Magazine to name a few.
Keep
an eye out on this blog for the new collections!
Bikini Designers Diary!
