Saint International will present the internationally recognised Style Week Jamaica (SWJ) 2008 in Kingston, Jamaica, Friday, May 23 - Sunday May 25.

This year's staging is creating global excitement as international brands, designers, models, celebrities and media are signing up to experience the inimitable affair.

SWJ 2k8 will create history by presenting the highest number of high-profile international designers from the major fashion capitals Paris, London, New York and Amsterdam. These include B. Michael, Bas Koster, Ed Hardy, Favvette and Julia Clancy among others.

Saint International will be bringing home their top models to grace the stage and be the easels for the display of the fashion glitz and glamour. Georgianna Robertson's homecoming will be an impressive one considering the phenomenal career she has had.

Saint International superstars Sasha, Canise, Jotasha, Sosheba, Jermain, Sigail, Tafari, Kevin and Venecia are, indeed, honoured to share the same stage.
