Fashion Ova style takes centre stage at art walk on Sunday
In an artistic collaboration between Saint International models and Kingston Creative, Fashion Ova Style will be mounted on Sunday, July 28.
The festivities will commence with a Discover Downtown tour departing from the Artwalk Festival at Church Street. The art walk promises bus tours, display of artisanal works, runway shows, crochet classes, competitive domino matches, paint and sip sessions, and a high-energy live performance by Kalyra and Blaze Shell Shell to conclude the event.
“Fashion Ova Style celebrates creativity, culture, and community. We want patrons to witness and appreciate the incredible talent of Jamaican designers and models,” said director of Kingston Creative, Andrea Dempster Chung.
The event is set to launch the Faces of Summer Model Search, with Saint CEO Deiwght Peters leading the search. Participants will be evaluated and trained by top models. Entry into the model search is free, and winners will receive contracts with Saint International and the opportunity to participate in a fashion show alongside professional Saint International models.
“I am expecting many stars from the surrounding communities to roll out to meet me and my scouting team. The exceptional ambition of Kingston Creative for Downtown is also aligned with the strategic imperatives of Saint in highlighting Kingston as a dynamic cultural mecca through our events such as Style Week Jamaica and the blockbuster Fashion Block,” said Peters.
The event, proudly sponsored by Red Stripe Flavours, Main Event, Catherine’s Peak, and Kingston and St Andrew Municipal Corporation, promises an array of engaging activities for participants. Additionally, a diverse selection of Jamaican cuisine will be available.
