We are here to influence our partisan that giving up on your dreams is always an option but never make it your choice. The fashion industry is an exquisite and compelling world of self-expression and style and is a wonderful part of our society that brings us together in a unique way. Fashion has always been an important part of how people define themselves and others. As such it can be a powerful tool of influence which consciously uses to project an image of our country Dominica.”

I got to meet different people and personalities and really got to see how creative everyone could be. It was very interesting and fun and all the participants ensured that they put on an amazing show.
