Women’s Caribbean Fashion Week
“Forget the fashion weeks of London, Paris, Milan and New York for sizzling looks hot off the catwalk, stylist Salome Munuo discovers the only way is the Caribbean!”
So screamed the UK’s Daily Express in a piece published on Monday, featuring Caribbean Fashion Week 2014, and captioned ‘Babes, beachwear and bikinis’.
Ranked in the top five of British newspapers, with readers in the millions and online hits of more than 31 million monthly, praise from the Express is high praise, indeed.
Describing the recently concluded Caribbean Fashion Week as “a carnival of island colour and style”, Fashion Editor Salome Munuo also hailed it as the Caribbean’s “annual style celebration, packed with colour, design talent and the all-important front row.”
Munuo continued: “For more than a decade, Jamaica’s capital, Kingston, has hosted the cream of the island’s talent and, as a first-time attendee, I was blown away with the craftsmanship and attention to detail of all the collections. The brainchild of Kingsley Cooper, CEO of Pulse, a fashion and entertainment company powering both the fashion and modeling industries in the Caribbean, the annual event has grown from strength to strength.”
The Express did not miss the key online shopping innovation or the related on-site store shopcaribbeanfashion.com in the CFW Exhibition space.
