Caribbean Fashion Week

Designers Rock the Runway at Caribbean Fashion Week 2015

Celebrating its 15th anniversary, Caribbean Fashion Week saw the region’s top designers put their best foot forward as Kingston Jamaica was completely immersed in fashion. The eagerly anticipated event celebrated collections from a formidable group of established and emerging designers from all over the world. Showcasing the style and seasonal trends that are unique to the region’s burgeoning fashion industry, this year encompassed everything from swimsuit collections to casual and evening wear, epitomizing the daring and innovative style that is innately characteristic of Caribbean fashion.
Vogue cover girl and Jamaican Pulse supermodel, Jeneil Williams — the campaign star for L’Oréal cosmetics — was a key face of CFW 2015. Also in attendance were Paris based Francine James and New York based models Oraine Barrett and Alysia Francis, who took to the catwalk to lend their support to the designers. Stand out collections from designers of this year’s CFW were; Cedella Marley & Karen Marley, Moncrieffe, Catalin Botezatu, Claudia Pegus, Sol by Drenna Luna, Pauline Bellamy, Biggy, Bill Edwards, Robert Young, Uzuri International, Deola Sagoe, Mutamba and emerging designers Yvonne Jewnell, Zaid and Mark Eastman.

Closing this year’s show was Billy Ocean, one of Britain’s most successful recording artists having sold over 30 million records. Performing a full-length concert with his 14-piece band, Ocean had the crowd up on their feet singing along to some of his iconic hits.
