Guyanese fashion icon to host “Conversation and Clothing” this weekend at Queenstown

Beginning today, prominent designer and Guyanese fashion diva, Sonia Noel will host a four-day event titled “Conversation and Clothing” at Crown Street, Queenstown, Georgetown between 15:00h and 17:00h. The event culminates on Monday with a grand fashion extravaganza.
At the event, participants will be engaged in discussions on how they can enhance their personal wardrobe and more importantly, how to manage themselves when it comes to fashion. At the event also, participants will be served refreshments and will have a chance to sample Six Degree, a new wine bottled by Banks DIH Limited. It is the official beverage of the event.
Noel continues to motivate women through fashion, thus creating a new fashion trend in Guyana for the masses. Seven months into the year, the fashion icon is the recipient of three other awards for her commitment and dedication to the fashion industry, not only in Guyana, but also in the Caribbean and further afield.
These awards include the Dolphin Award of Excellence presented by the the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club; The Female Social Entrepreneur Award 2016 by Global Innovation Press (GIP) in association with the Caribbean Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Livelihoods (CoESL) and she was recently honoured at a gala event to mark Guyana’s 50th Independence Anniversary in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
In addition, Noel recently attended a conference in the US for women entrepreneurs and inventors which provided networking opportunities with women such as singer Dionne Warwick; actress Jasmine Guy, Kim Lavine (mommy millionaire) and talk show host, Maggie Lenton.
She was also afforded the privilege of being a special guest of the prestigious Network Journal 40 UNDER 40 Awards in Manhattan, New York.
Rosalind McLymont, Executive Editor of The Network Journal in her opening remarks praised the Guyanese fashion designer for the fantastic work she is doing in Guyana and the Caribbean. However, “Conversation and Clothing” will be taken to Atlanta on July 22, July 27 in New York, July 30 in Texas and August 14 in New Jersey.
Admission to “Conversation and Clothing” is absolutely free. Those interested in being a part of the event are asked to visit Sonia Noel Design facebook page and reserve your seats. Limited seating accommodations are available.
