A deconstructed Jacket I did some months ago
Takes a deep breath.
Since people may be asking my views lot for the next few days ( weeks).
I give Anya she win. I eh even vex about it, is a path that she took upon herself to walk and it paid off for her, well done!
The TV show is a TV show, and she was the right story for it. Plus her timing is good, the fashion industry, and by extension, the art world is looking for fresh new stars. I believe the Caribbean is ground zero for that. She is creative and her graphic design background plus her traveling and building her clothing line over the last few years was quite an arsenal.
Then again, is not about Anya, is it?
It’s about the society remembering that we should rally behind all creatives we have locally after next week Thursday when the show is no longer on air. That is the hard part. From Grassroots to Government Legislation we need to push it wholesale and really rally behind our industry.
Artists/creatives too need to step up. I heard there is a fashion school in Trinidad.
The work now start. We have 15 minutes.
