‘Cabana Nights’

‘Cabana Nights’

The docks of downtown Kingston perennially play wind machine-substitute to the shutter-ready fashion plates who turn the various incarnations of the Bank of Jamaica waterfront park-hosted Cabana City Reserve — the latest, taking place, two Saturdays ago — into their personal runways. All Woman Fashion goes trendspotting!

Two Sides of the Story

The classic seasonal fail-safe, ebony and ivory made its annual comeback in interesting combinations and embellishments.

Ivory Tower

The muted palette of brilliant whites and dusty creams instantly upgrades an ensemble from casual to sophisticated with its cool, neutral tones.

Pop Goes The Easel

Iridescent jewel tones, electric pops of colour and abstract printwork add stimulating visual interest and make bold statements.

The Inkwell

The elegant mainstays of navy, charcoal and black gain a fresh take after-hours and are the perfect proponents for dawn-to-dusk versatility.
