Award winning Fashion Designer and artist from Jamaica and the Cayman Islands Jawara Alleyne has developed his handwriting through examining topics of cultural relevance while pushing these topics through a tunnel of contextual and abstract but relevant references. The delicate balancing of ideas thought of as unrelated and the creation of narratives through the significance and importance of differences is the key element behind Jawara’s ethos. Having graduated from the London College of Fashion in 2016, Jawara has since co-founded Nii Agency (a model agency in London dedicated to diversity) with photographer and collaborator, Campbell Addy. Jawara graduated from a Masters in Fashion from Central Saint Martins in 2020.
"My research as a designer contemplates notions of identity to breathe life to a new man and a new vision of menswear. My work sits at the intersection of exploring masculinity and conscious design for the man who choses to define himself. Growing up in Jamaica and the Cayman Islands also plays an important role in the stories I tell in my work and my approach to design. "
