The Fashion and Art Circuit took place in the beautiful city of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, bringing artists, fashion designers, and creative professionals from all over the world together to network and socialise. The energy in the place was palpable.
It was indeed a night of art and fashion. The chatter from the crowd died down, when the show started with a beautiful performance by four amazing young girls, who go by the name, Twisted Fuzion dance team.
Then the moment that all of these designers and artists had been awaiting was here – the fashion display and most could not wait to see what the Fashion and Art Circuit team had in store.
Many soft, feminine looks floated on the runway. Few of the collections were composed of bold, luxurious yet comfortable textures and fabrics. Many looks were perfect contrasts to each designer’s personality and background.
Mariska’s Designs by Sonia Noel brought a more casual feel to the runway with fabulous pieces of everyday Floridian wear. She used all kinds of unconventional materials and vivid designs. She also had pieces for curvier women.
Curves Conquering With Confidence (CCWC) Network Founder and President Corrhin Brunot, the host of the event, noted that Noel has quickly become one of the more recognisable names in the directory of Caribbean designers.
She has been insightful enough to position herself throughout the region at all the noteworthy fashion events and intuitive enough to create a label “Mariska’s Designs” that is a unique hybrid of Guyanese craftsmanship, Caribbean ingenuity, and an all-pervasive universal style. Noel is known for her swimwear, casual, resort, semi-formal and formal garments for females, males and children.
She was described as a phenomenal woman, a mother, a mentor, a fashion designer, and a businesswoman. She is all set and ready to take the Caribbean by storm in 2015.
