Tropical Glam Resort

International celebrity hairstylist, fashion designer and beauty consultant Lisa McIntosh could barely contain her excitement as she hit the runway to give AW Fashion a look at her latest resort collection aptly labelled Tropical Glam Resort. The woman known for her glamorous dresses that stylishly caress the curves of the Caribbean form wants the wearer “to feel uninhibited… to acquire a piece that is timeless and classy”.

McIntosh has always designed for all: “ the stay-at-home mum, the corporate exec and yes, their children. Her resort collection — a mélange of bold prints, soft cotton and chiffon and inspired by her beloved island of Jamaica — has found favour with many— simply because it conforms to almost every body shape, goes everywhere, needs very little if any ironing and makes travelling a reality — even for those who (guilty with no explanation) refuse to pack light!

Check out the Lisa McIntosh resort collection for the House of Neah Lis at 19 Ardenne Road, Kingston 10. The best news is the affordability.

Resortwear allows the flexibility of dressing garments up or down as perfectly displayed by both model and designer. (Photo: Jordache Jones)
