She will join executive producer/host Keneea Linton-George, judges
Novia McDonald-Whyte, Jamaica Observer lifestyle editor and noted
menswear designer Carlton Brown in critiquing the work of the remaining
12 designers who will be divided into four groups of three. The teams
will have to convince the judges that their mini collection for
celebrity/style icons Michelle Obama, Victoria “Posh” Beckham, Nicki
Minaj and Lady Saw herself is the best of the lot.
When asked if she considers herself a fashion icon Lady Saw (born
Marion Hall) replies, “Yes I do see myself as a fashion icon. I’m
always into fashion I love Christian Louboutin shoes and Marc Jacobs
dresses; anything that’s fly- that’s me. I will go all out and rock a
very expensive outfit for a big show; but sometimes I do mess up; like
when I wait last minute and I’ll call somebody to get me something and
it doesn’t work. That can be a disaster!”
The deejay, known for delivering outspoken lyrics onstage in between
wig-pulling (hers of course) and kicking off her heels, is working on
her ninth studio album, Lady Saw Presents: Marion Hall on her Divas
Recordings imprint. The album will include various genres including
country and jazz. Lady Saw is currently working on a screenplay and
filming the video for “Sidung” her recent collaboration with Elephant
Man.
Though the “Love Sick” singer declined to spill the beans her
designer favorites, she remarked that her experience on Mission Catwalk
was “fun!”
Which group of regional designers (from Barbados, Belize, Guyana,
Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago) will impress the dancehall veteran and
fashion icon? Who will rule the catwalk?
Find out by tuning in to Television Jamaica on Tuesday April 24 at
8:30 PM. For those in Trinidad the series airs Tuesdays at 9:30 PM on
