Market profile
How the market works in Port of Spain
Those three layers explain the city better than a list of agencies ever could. Models can intersect with fashion business, graduate collections, cultural production and Carnival-related presentation. The local market is therefore rooted in a creative industry ecosystem rather than one conventional Fashion Week route.
