I’m wearing… red business wear with a splash of black and white.

My love affair with Shenna Carby began… while watching Mission Catwalk in 2011. I thought her style and eye for fashion were different.

I support the brand because… she is so humble, professional, hard-working and has an amazing personality to top it all off. She is following her dreams, and I will assist in any way I can to help her achieve her goals.

I have… about six to seven Shenna Carby pieces.

My favourite piece is… OMG! This is a hard one, I love all my pieces….hmm, it’s a toss-up between what I’m wearing for the shoot and a figure-hugging three-quarter sleeve, high neck, low back dress… it’s hot!

Philanthropist I’m wearing… a teal and purple silk three-quarter sleeve peplum skirt suit with a jabot neckline. My love affair with Shenna Carby began… in November 2011. I was invited to the American Friends of Jamaica Gala in New York and took the opportunity to wear a local designer to promote my country and its talented designers. I support the brand because… Shenna is a local designer who is on par with any international designer! Her pieces are impeccably tailored and classic in design. Plus, she is a warm and amazing lady to work with! I have… quite a few pieces (smiles) they are ALL my favourites as they embody all that I desire in my clothing.Name: Simone Foote Marketing Manager British Caribbean Insurance Company I’m wearing… a red cocktail dress specially designed for my company’s 50th anniversary party. My love affair with Shenna Carby began in… September 2012. I was looking for a local designer to create a one-of-a-kind red (my favourite colour) dress for the anniversary party. I wanted something specific and unique and was directed to Shenna. Since then I have been hooked. I support the brand because… Shenna is extremely creative, unique, and reliable. The quality of her work is also impeccable. I am able to describe what I want and she always hits the nail on the head. It constantly amazes me that she gets the vision that I have in my head and always surpasses my expectations. It also helps that I am always complemented when wearing a Shenna design. I am intrigued at how humble Shenna is with the great level of talent that she possesses and that’s one of the things that I love about her, she puts her client first. I have… five pieces and growing from Shenna Carby. My favourite is… this red dress. I love it! It is elegant and has so many dimensions to it.
