MONTEGO BAY, St James — Organisers of the 9th annual OCEAN Style Fashion Showcase Weekend (FSW) and Celebrity Golf Tournament are putting the final touches on the highly anticipated event which is set to ignite the tourism resort capital from November 24-27, 2016.

“Montego Bay has in recent times become the epicentre of celebrity sightings in Jamaica, and that’s due in large measure to OCEAN Style,” said Douglas Gordon, founder of OCEAN.

He added that his vision is to showcase Caribbean luxury and lifestyle at its very best.

“Jamaica is a beautiful destination with a rich and vibrant heritage which provides the perfect backdrop for a luxury weekend and getaway. We’re delighted to be working with companies like our presenting partner Secrets Resorts & Spas and MTV this year, and look forward to a spectacular weekend,” Gordon continued.

He added: “With such an enviable profile the event has in the past attracted the attention of global media giants such as BET, Centric and ESPN; each of which has celebrated the OCEAN Style experience on their respective channels.”

Gordon disclosed that Secrets Resorts & Spas will play host to the guests and a number of the events as the presenting partner for the second consecutive year.

“For a luxury resort like Secrets it’s a very good fit. We are happy to be associated with world-class events and that is what OCEAN Style delivers,” expressed Emilio Huhn, general manager of Secrets.

Other partners for FSW include JPS, Sagicor, Caribbean Airlines, Tropical Outsourcing, MACO and Mont Blanc.
