| Tribal & Acid wash |
As women our fashion trends seem to change more frequently than men’s, One week its polka dots, next week it’s Vintage Romance and then bring on the vivid Tribal prints. It is a challenge keeping up with the ever changing political policies let alone keeping abreast of ever changing Fashion trends.

| Monkey Business |
In spite of this women adapt there style according to Social demographics, Body Shape, weather and male opinion. There is an old West Indian proverb ‘Monkey See, Monkey Do’. The understanding of this is ‘Follow Fashion’, a monkey only copies and does not understand what it is doing. Same rules apply in the fashion arena especially with 'SOME' women.

| Couture extreme |
Advice alert: Not everything on the catwalk is designed to be worn it’s called ‘Couture’ it’s a concept idea that has been designed and constructed to showcase the designers signature accents I.E Burberry Iconic Check, Channel Black & White, Vivienne Westwood Structured Drapery. What you see on the catwalk is an ‘extreme’ and ideas which eventually will be developed into ‘Ready to Wear’ garments.
Following on from the Jamaican proverb, I have discovered upon my fashion journey that Male trends last a lot longer than women’s and seem to be based on preference – majority of males tend to stick to one particular style that suits them i.e if they love Harem Jeans with workman boots they will create a capsule wardrobe based around these key pieces.
