The Buzz
Worthy Boys
Theodore Elyett, David Rolle & Oliver Tolentino
Steal the Show at the Third Annual
Islands of the World Fashion Week 2010
By Qianna Smith
When it came to talent and innovative design, the boys ruled the runway at the Third Annual Islands of the World Fashion Week (IWFW). Three designers in particular stood out from the 18
collections that hit the catwalk and they were emerging stars
Theodore Elyett (The Bahamas), David Rolle (The Bahamas) and industry veteran Oliver Tolentino (Philippines). The three-day
event (November 11 to 13) showcased at the British Colonial Hilton Hotel took place in Nassau, the sun-drenched capital of
The Bahamas. Nassau’s ‘distinct blend of international 21st
century glamour, old-world charm and tropical ease’ made it the ideal setting for Mode Iles Ltd., organizers of the IWFW.
