Melina Džinović, née Galić,[1] aka Melina Harris, born 1981) is a Bosnian fashion designer based in Serbia known for her womenswear label "Hamel".[2] Her designs often include body hugging statement dresses that have become popular with Hollywood A-listers.

Background

Džinović was born Melina Galić[1] in Bihać, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Yugoslavia to Elma and Sulejman Galić.[3][4] She grew up in Zagreb, Croatia.[5] In 2014, she married Bosnian singer Haris Džinović and they have two children.[6] They were together for eleven years before getting married.[1]

Career

In 2016, Džinović presented her clothing line at a Belgrade fashion show. That same year she made her American debut, showing a collection at FUNKSHION: Fashion Week Miami Beach.[7][8][9][10] In 2016, People Style magazine also named a "Hamel" gown one of the year's "best dresses from the back", meaning the outfit looked good from behind.[11] In 2017, she presented a runway show in Sao Paulo, where Brazilian Vogue editor Donata Mirales Melina called her "...a super talented designer" and featured her dresses in the magazine.[12][13][14] The "Hamel" brand is sold at about 50 locations around the world.[15][16] In 2018, Džinović's collection was seen at Paris Fashion Week, resulting in 25 additional buyers stocking her clothing line.[6][17]

With regards to her style, the designer has stated "I always like fringes and see-through fabrics, and I always love the details, so it is difficult for me to make 40 pieces of simple dresses."[7] Although tight-fitting, her outfits are known for covering up figure flaws, as well as being wrinkle free and travel-ready. Džinović's clothes have been worn by Sophia Vergara, Gal Gadot, Mariah Carey, Pamela Anderson, Britney Spears, Ali Larter, and Kate Beckinsale,[18][2][19] as well as Jennifer Lopez who ordered several dresses.[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] Džinović has traveled to Los Angeles to do personal fittings for actress Sharon Stone.[28] Local Serbian celebrities like singer Ceca, Kristina Kija Kockar and TV presenter Jovana Joksimović also wear Džinović's "Hamel" label.[29]
