FAB FASHION WEEK
NEW ENGLAND

The premium fashion show was absolutely fabulous—an unforgettable fusion of high fashion, artistry, and community. The models and designers were truly remarkable, and I feel deeply honored to have been part of such a powerful celebration.

I was born and raised in Springfield, MA, and I've never attended an event here as wonderful as this. Witnessing that level of fashion, energy, and elegance right here has stirred a deep sense of excitement and pride in me.

I had the honor of modeling for incredible designers, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. FPFWNE beautifully brings together culture, artistry, and community, creating opportunities to connect and grow with inspiring creatives. I'm deeply grateful to do what I love in such a supportive and empowering environment. 

​

Thank you for uplifting talent and celebrating diversity in New England's fashion scene. I look forward to continuing this journey.​

FAB’s Fashion Week was my final official event as Consul General of Trinidad and Tobago, and my staff and I witnessed an unforgettable display of sartorial creativity and elegance. Enticing the audience to see themselves in the pieces displayed by utilising “regular and relatable” models was a masterstroke. 

​

The overall presentation was very high class. This excellent show facilitates the level of exposure and exchange that designers from Trinidad and Tobago, the Caribbean and elsewhere would hope to enjoy in New England.

​It was a pleasure to photograph FPFWNE. 

The event was impressively organized, featuring a festive atmosphere and creative designs from numerous talented designers and models. 

​

Thamk you for the opportunity to capture these creative designs.

Nothing short of extraordinary! 
A true celebration of creativity, culture, and community, organized with a high level of professionalism and artistic vision. The event was polished and enjoyable from start to finish. I left genuinely impressed. The creativity and originality of the designers were clear. Each collection had something unique and engaging, even to my untrained eye.

A high quality production. It seemed bigger than just a fashion show-- it brought people together.

FPFWNE is a bold expression of culture, craftsmanship, and conscious design. Under the leadership of Richie Richardson, this showcase brings together designers in a seamless blend of rhythmic style, heritage, innovation, and global sophistication.

This fashion event honors diverse voices, inner vibes, it celebrates narrative, and it delivers rare, limited-edition fashion that is as meaningful as it is luxurious.
