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.

Rip the Runway
For Christian Dior's Fall 2008 Couture Collection, Galliano pulled out all the stops- big coats, wasp waists, nipped jackets, circle skirts, tulle dresses, architectural gowns cut from spiraling lace... Mostly framed in black (lots!) and white, with tints of gray, caramel, violet, mint, and chartreuse to follow, the shapes traced familiar silhouettes—albeit a familiarity shot through with the designer's irrepressible touches of perversity and signature darkness.
