trinidad fashion run

1/28

On the 30th January 2016 the event called Trinidad Fashion Run coincided with Trinidad’s Carnival season. Carnival costuming and its huge impact on fashion in Trinidad is largely a part of Trinidad’s fashion history and fashion landscape to date. The tour was carded to start at 10 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m. There were four fashion stops feature on this mobile fashion party all inclusive of light refreshments, gifts, giveaways and games.

The first stop was Exhibit A, the designer space curated by former Project Runway winner Anya Ayoung Chee to offer emerging and established designers a home for retail of their designs. However, in the spirit of Carnival the store was transformed in Canyaval which is the Carnival Monday Wear brand and collection under the purview of Anya Ayoung Chee. Carnival Monday Wear is the latest addition to Trinidad’s fashion scene for Carnival.

The second stop took the patrons down memory lane with a trip to Mas’ Rebellion. They made their first debut this year on the streets for Carnival. The Mas’ Rebellion team inculcated creative director Keir Roopnarine as well as the industrial designer, illustrator and writer Ayodhya Ouditt into their talent base for their design aesthetic and narrative on Heroes or Villains in the United States of Trinidad.

The third stop was dedicated to the evolution of Carnival costuming so there was a stop at Passion Carnival Mas Camp. The squad of designers behind the “Amazon” presentation aimed at focusing on the strength and dominance of the woman for next year’s Carnival presentation. These designers included Sonia Mack, Rajin Gopie, Rene Williams, international photographer Calvin French, internationally recognized hair stylist Ashvin Bally, fashion designer Noor, Fazad Mohammed and Alejandro Gomez. The face of Passion Carnival 2016 was Heidi Andrews, Miss Global International Queen 2015.

The final fashion stop was none other than the Caribbean fashion lifestyle boutique and a former fashion tour show stopper; Blue Basin. The appeal of a true Caribbean was felt at this lifestyle stop with the exclusive addition of ethical and quality designed clothing and accessories. Patrons enjoyed branded cupcakes, competed for gift vouchers and reveled in shopping therapy amidst complimentary wine and hors d'oeurves courtesy Jessel Brizan, owner of Blue Basin Stores.
