Rock-fab moments @NewYork Fashion Week
NYFW is in full swing — and Jamaica is, quite frankly, outside. Welcome to the Rock-fab round-up.

Then there’s Jamaican-Chinese designer Brandon Blackwood, who has been working the NYFW circuit with the requisite fashion-week flair — cosying up to rapper Yung Miami at Christian Cowan, making an appearance at KidSuper and taking his rightful place front row at Kim Shui.
And because the Jamaican contingent clearly wasn’t done yet, Shenseea stepped into the NYFW spotlight on September 12 for the debut runway show of American online streamer Kai Cenat’s clothing brand VIVET. The star-studded presentation marked the brand’s first runway outing, with Shenseea joining a guest list that included Grammy-award-winning artiste Lauryn Hill and a host of internet and entertainment heavyweights.
