Ladies with an Attitude

US-based Jamaican designer Hope Wade raised awareness for the of-the-moment “Black Lives Matter” campaign with the phrase splashed across burlap fabric designs which featured gilded embroidery and laser-cut garments at last Saturday’s Caribbean Fashion Week sequel.

Rock designer Ashley Martin orchestrated another show-stopping performance on Sunday night, comprising sequins and intricate beading, velvet, jewels and bold tropical prints. AW Fashion style team gives you front row access
