Finding Faces
Saint International is arguably the leading model agency in Jamaica, pioneering in discovering great talent to play muse and model to the Worlds biggest fashion houses. This we think is validated by way of their 'Faces of the Caribbean Competition' which offers an opportunity for a lucky gal and guy to be signed to an international model agency. CEO Deiwght Peters is the man with the exceptional vision committed to creating life changing opportunities for everyday "gazelles" and master hommes alike. This export system has engendered amazing careers for Tami Williams, Shena Moulton and last year's Fashion Face; Kai Newman. All three girls joined the hopefuls strutting on stage moments before the new faces were announced.
A part of the nights celebration was that of new-edge talent found in a line-up of extremely innovative designers all vying for the coveted title of Avante Garde Designer of the year. Andre Rowe -of whom we are huge fans- returned to defend his title but had to settle for a hot runner-up placing. Its the queen of tie-dye resort-wear; Simone "Tasha" Gordon that took the cake as the 2014 Avante Garde designer of the year.
As for the stunning creatures of beautyland it was 18 year old Giovanie Johnson and Anushka McCalla (16), who were named the Male and female fashion faces of 2014. These lucky up and comers now have the opportunity to be represented by any one of the top International model agencies invited by Saint such as Whilemina, Elite, Art and Commerce, Fusion, One Management and Next Models Worldwide. Good Luck Saints!
