cmarchuska Diane Dress Giveaway
At EcoSalon, we love versatile clothing as much as our giveaways (and eco-designers!). The Diane dress, by designer cmarchuska, is one of those multi-tasking talents.
Is it a tunic? Is it a dress? One thing we do know is that it’s beautiful.
Draped softly at the neck and shaped just enough to skim your sides, the Diane looks lovely worn alone or with accoutrements.
Hailing from a Wall Street background, designer Christine Marchuska knows what looks good on a woman during and after office hours. Most of her designs move you smoothly from nine to five to a late night cocktail soiree.
In other words, when you arrive at work wearing the Diane with a blazer, wide belt and a pencil skirt and heels, you can simply peel away the layers to the essential before heading off to happy hour.
Based on comments from the last giveaway, you creative ladies know how to get the most from your wardrobe. For those of you in warmer climates, we cold-weather girls are heartened by your ideas and will live vicariously through you when you say, “Accoutrements? I’ll wear this one as is.”
How would you wear it? Leave a comment below and you are one registered woman. Good luck!

It would be beautiful with some soft, drapey trousers, some modern, simple jewelery and chic sandals (for those of us in Florida).

As cool as it is here right now, I’d definitely be pairing this with some warm tights and some type of light sweater/throw.

Most definitely with one of my grandmother’s old scarves just below the waist for an empire waist look…and then with cute tights and my black boots!
October 24th, 2009 at 7:11 pm
I would pair this with a pair of shiny dark jeans and some large bangles. gorgeous dress.
October 24th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
This dress has my name on it! Love it.
October 24th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
the simple one I am, one way I’d wear it would be as is…with brown boots and snaz up with some ethnic inspired gold bracelet(s) / earrings
October 24th, 2009 at 9:40 pm
I’d wear this with some thick tights, a chunky knit sweater, warm winter hat, and a nice pair of vintage Frye boots. Love it!

It’s autumn over here and colder; so I would wear it over a pair of skinny jeans with a pair of perfect fitting boots I was fortunate to get earlier this year – I can’t wait to wear them and this dress would show them off perfectly! A pashmina would finish the look and keep my shoulders warm!
October 25th, 2009 at 2:51 am
I’d pair it with my slim fitted dark jeans, tall black booties, and my creme-colored unstructure wool cardigan — to match the draped look of the tunic/dress. Another FABULOUS example of stylish, eco-friendly clothing! Thank goodness Christine Marchuska left Wall Street and found her calling.

Hopefully the designer is taking notes on all your ideas!
Now you all are making ME want to have one….
October 25th, 2009 at 5:33 am
I’d love this dress and I would wear it with a collarless white shirt and black wide leg trousers.
October 25th, 2009 at 10:55 am
Lovely! Could have used this last night out at a local hot spot, paired with a big chunky belt and stilettos. Who says party looks have to be all polyester and plastic?
October 25th, 2009 at 11:48 am
This dress is so cute!! I have some strappy little high heels that would be soooo uber-chic to wear to an upcoming holiday party!
crossing fingers:)
October 25th, 2009 at 2:14 pm
It looks like it would be great for any size!
October 25th, 2009 at 4:27 pm
What a dress!!! I would certainly be wearing it in the north country, where the next booming metropolis is at least an hour away. Oh lets see, how about some cowgirl boots and a funky belt or maybe just the dress with something delicate underneath for my husband, it is quite a sexy dress!!!
I think he would love this one as much as I do!!
October 25th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
I would be wearing this with somebody else’s body!
Can I win that too????
October 26th, 2009 at 4:57 am
No Cindy, new bodies are not included in this giveaway
October 26th, 2009 at 6:48 am
That is a gorgeous dress. I can see it with jeans and a few silver chains for a dressed-down look. I would be great with tights and bling for the holidays.
Does it come in plus sizes?

If it were today, I may wear some nice leggings, tall leather boots, with a thin belt around the waist. Hair up and little wispies pulled down. Simple jewelry..Gosh there really are many ways it could be worn! Very cute
October 26th, 2009 at 11:31 am
I’d wear it bear legs, with riding boots!
October 26th, 2009 at 2:54 pm
In Southern Cali, I’d keep it simple by add a dressy open cardigan and use a thin piece to belt it.
October 27th, 2009 at 10:00 am
I would wear this gorgeous little number with my favourite military style cropped jacket.
I adore cmarchuska, have one of their hunter scarves and I loooove it
October 28th, 2009 at 10:09 am
I would probably wear it to work with leggings and black flat knee boots. And I have a great black and white scarf I would pair with it for the winter.
October 29th, 2009 at 12:32 am
totally something i would wear as a dress, maybe with a nice brooch or a chunky sweater… but i like the length as is, no need to cover up!
October 29th, 2009 at 4:09 pm
Skinny jeans and ankle boots! Such a cute dress!
Great giveaway!
October 29th, 2009 at 7:05 pm
This is so slinky and sexy!
For a night out:
- Electric blue heels
- Black shoulder chain bag
- Stack on the bangles!
- Textured white tights
For colder weather:
- Cropped brown jacket
- Solid red colored tights
- Black knee high boots
- Navy satchel
- Grey beanie hat
October 29th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
I think this would look amazing with a navy colored cocoon cardigan and gray or black textured tights. I would wear a pair of cute white vintage flats to mix the old and new together. One chunky yellow bracelet and tie my hair up to show off the neckline to its fullest potential!
Since the outfit I concocted is pretty casual, I’d also go with a natural and soft look for makeup. Corals and light shades of rose for powder and lips
Nothing over the top!
October 29th, 2009 at 7:23 pm
I would actually love to wear this tucked into a high waisted printed skirt that own. I think it would look perfect!
The skirt is form fitting which would go well with a looser top and the colors are bright and fun
I’d wear my tan T-strap ruffled heels and a cute red satchel. If I’m feeling funky, I’ll throw on a fedora too!
October 29th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
Hmm…my post got erased.
So I’d wear it with an oversized navy cocoon cardigan, black or grey textured tights, white vintage flats, and a leather brown shoulder slung bag.
Oh and a chunky yellow bracelet!
October 29th, 2009 at 7:32 pm
AH sorry! It didnt get erased. I’m losing my head
October 30th, 2009 at 4:20 am

Black tghts and flirty black silk flats, with serious bracelets and earrings
or
skinny jeans and a long wool blazer

WOW I won?! Is it to late to redeem my prize? If not, should I send you an email?
Thanks a ton!!
November 2nd, 2009 at 2:33 pm
sorry haha, I meant is it too late for me to CLAIM my prize?
November 2nd, 2009 at 7:16 pm
Such a season (and wardrobe) versatile piece.
I would most likely wear this tunic-dress with a grey 3/4 sleeve cardigan, black skinnies, medium tone berry scrunched boots, vintage long multi-strand mixed metals necklace, gunmetal pyramid stud earrings and a black hobo handbag. Maybe even a black beret.
November 5th, 2009 at 7:29 pm
I do not know whether to wear it to work, or wear it to bed to really get my man excited….
November 18th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Don’t forget to add she is from the Greater Binghamton area!!!
November 18th, 2009 at 12:50 pm
I would wear it with jeans since I wear everything with jeans.
