Fashion in Jamaica and the region exists, much to my annoyance, almost outside of an international aesthetic. It's my desire, then, to build a bridge between what is innately cultural, and the international industry, all the while highlighting trends and shifts within both spheres.

Gucci 2010 Spring/Summer Menswear Collection
The Gucci collection didn't display or require a lot of thought. But this is no surprise- this is a label most noted for their commercial accessibility than for anything art-sy. In any field, this isn't a necessarily bad thing, least of all fashion. After all, what is fashion if not bought and worn? That said, where I was impressed with the collection was with the bags and the texture of the pieces- using nylon, cotton, even croc and snakesin, the collection looked at turns tough, suave, even street-smart. Oh. And VERY cool.
