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.

Versace Fall/Winter 2011
Filled with flower-y curlicues, and overtly militaristic influences, the Versace Fall 2011 collection presented in Milan was simple and minimalistic, yet fresh and effective.
It wasn't cutting-edge, but it certainly hit all the right notes; the silhouette was kept close to the body, and colours rarely shifted from black and white.
Models strode out in black leather military-style coats with gold Medusa buttons- the Versace house trademark- and tunics with open backs, as well as purple rollneck jumpers matched with leather pleated skirts and fur neck-warmers in white, purple and green offset by plunging v-shaped neck lines which updated the LBD.
