We already have the greatest rum on earth in our fair island but nothing's wrong with adding Chris Blackwell's label to the list. And, grab your sketch pads and head out to Caribbean Fashionweek for the latest designs, starting tonight!


Fashionistas have started to arrive in Jamaica for Caribbean Fashionweek. Already here is Gavin Douglas, pictured here on the CFW runway with Nadine Willis. Gavin is the winner of Britain's Fashion Fringe Award, as well as the UK Young Designer of the Year award. He will show his latest collection tomorrow. - Contributed


Looking more fabulous than ever, Kerry-Ann Clarke (left), Donahue Jarrett and the beautiful Asha Issa.

Here for Caribbean Fashionweek is Teddy Isimit-Mirin (second right). Pulse's general manager, Romae Gordon (centre), and winners of Pulse's Caribbean Model Search in Guadeloupe are also in the picture. Mirin heads Strategies Caribe, a company based in Guadeloupe that partners with Pulse in a number of fashion-related projects currently being developed in the French Caribbean. - Contributed
