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.

Night Out- Kingston Bar Week at the PURE Lounge
Recently in Kingston, Jamaica, the PURE Lounge opened its doors, giving hip Kingston denizens one more reason to love the night scene.
This past week, the best bars in the metropolis celebrated Bar Week with endorsements from Skyy Vodka, Red Stripe and Smirnoff. But PURE decided to one-up their competition- on Thursday night, in addition to offering great deals at the bar, the lounge housed the designs of three of the city's hottest and best up-and-coming designers. Of course I was there to capture everything, and I must say that I was as equally excited by the very stylish patrons pouring through the door as I was by the jewellry by Peace-Is of Bianca (Bianca Bartley) and the bejewelled clutches and blouses by Two Dragonfly (Sarah Moss-Solomon). Here are the highlights.
