Fashion Fridays: Yahdie Conscious

Words by Jesse Serwer—

We’re always looking for local Caribbean fashion labels with the potential to make an impact on an international level. Our friends at Kingston Style just put us on to a great one in Yahdie Conscious, a Jamaican womens’ line with an aesthetic that’s right on time with trends in yaad and abroad. While the name Yahdie Conscious evokes thoughts of rootswear, it’s dresses and rompers are something more sophisticated, and the aesthetic is complemented by a line of head ties called GlamHEAD. Kingston Style recently interviewed Yahdie Concsious and GlamHEAD founder Jami Spence about her inspirations, and the direction of her twin lines. Check out some looks from both lines below, and read the interview here.

Side note: Though Yahdie Conscious has a website, it seems that the styles seen here are currently only available at Style Savvy, a store in 7th Ave. Plaza, in Kingston.
