SO2 – July 31
With 38 days to go before the hotly anticipated return of Jamaica Observer Celebrates Fashion’s Night Out (FNO), slated for September 8, retailers, sponsors and Jamaica Observer executives enjoyed the first in a series of mini-launches at Fiction nightclub Monday last. The mini-launch, which was hosted as part of the Moët-themed Mynt Monday, buzzed with talk that this year’s event is shaping up to be even bigger and more fab than last year’s.
