[edit] History

Founded in 2001, the company is named after its founder and clothing designer, Dorinha, who in 2005 was a Featured Entrepreneur at the British Columbia Forum for Women Entrepreneurs' Annual Gala Dinner.[7] Vancouver Fashion Week awarded Dorinha as the International Rising Designer 2006 award.

[edit] The Original One Inch Zipper

The first one inch zipper was invented by YKK in 2001 for Dorinha Jeans clothing line, they also made a one click zipper to prevent themselves from being bumped off as "the worlds smallest zipper”. The zipper itself actually made one click, and locked into place.
