Here’s How We Do Evening

It’s a truth universally acknowledged and accepted by those in the know that Caribbean women love to ‘glam up’.

Indeed, in Jamaica we dress up even to go to the ladies’. Ask Cecile Levee if you are in doubt! Here’s how we do a Caribbean chic dress code. AW snagged these shots in Negril at the luxe Cliff resort as well as at an intimate dinner party for Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Keith Rowley, at the Spanish Court Hotel.
