A September to remember: The Rock Fab Issue

Part 2

The Jamaica Observer Takes Style Out is officially back on Thursday, October 6 and to get fashionistas and dapper dans sufficiently hyped for the annual retail pilgrimage that sees stores from around the island slashing prices and entertaining customers, the newspaper invited prospective shoppers to a Rock Fab Issue club night in Portmore, at The Hive, the former home of Famous.

With libations freely flowing from Red Stripe, a part of the Heineken company, and against the backdrop of a setting designed by Free Spiritz Jamaica painters Eon & Robby, event designer Audia Archibald, Mara Made Designs front woman Tamara Harding and the team from Main Events, patrons comtemplated the question: ‘What’s your personal style?’

SO

unfurls its big September Issue. What? Did you not know that Jamaica is the epicentre of style? Now you do!
