On
Friday the photographers got started early, while the models nestled on
the beach in a Photo Shoot before the weather became overcast… Compass
Point Beach Resort is the ultimate peace of mind and the perfect
backdrop for our new line on urban clothing.
Then, Tropical Storm Emily moved into town and changed our plans for BFW this past weekend.
Our committee members had to postpone the Bahamas Fashion Accessories Expo
and our annual Fashion Show on the pier at Compass Point due to
inclement weather by tropical storm Emily.
Another date will be
scheduled for the activities of Bahamas Fashion Week so that the
designers who participated in our Accessories Expo will get that
opportunity to showcase their n
ew designs.
As well another fashion show will be announced for both clothing lines.
