Located in the Waterfront Shops in Duck, Donna Designs offers a unique Outer Banks shopping opportunity. Specializing in wearable art, owner Donna Haddon has been hand painting designs for resort clothing for more than 25 years. Her one-of-a-kind creations make her resort clothing irresistible. Donna uses several techniques to paint on clothing, including free hand, batik, airbrush and gyotaku. Her signature method is a mix between block print and screen print. The result of her art is clothing with a truly Outer Banks feel – featuring everything from crabs and sea turtles to shorebirds, seashells and starfish. Donna’s signature item is a hand-painted ladies fashion tee. With a feminine fit, the store offers several styles to choose from, each with a unique design created by Donna herself. Donna Designs carries top-notch clothing lines such as Jag Jeans, Nomadic Traders and Eucalyptus. The waterfront store also offers accessories such as purses, hats and jewelry. Shoppers can choose from popular jewelry brands such as Holly Yashi, Sea Glass by K-Bay, Lovell Designs by Ken Kantro and a local jewelry making group, Outer Banks Girl Friends. Don’t miss the butterfly wing jewelry and sterling silver with seashells. Donna Designs is also the perfect spot to pick out gift items and clothing for children. Stop in to find that perfect outfit for the special little ones in your life. Choose from onsies, rompers and toddler dresses, all with a whimsical design that is unique to Donna Designs.
