Vision isn’t just about what you see with your eyes, it starts with what you feel in your heart. 🧡
Here are some affirmations for someone who needs a push to keep going.
The Late Honourable H. Lavity Stoutt was a leader, visionary and the ultimate villager. He proved that a village isn’t just where you live, but what you build. 🤍
Will you be a villager? ❤️

Last week, NYFW got a dose of Virgin Islands colour! 🎨🇻🇬
The Islander’s debut was a 10-year anniversary celebration, a BVI takeover, and a total vibe all in one.
Andrea Wilson’s Ocean Odyssey was joined by the gender-expansive couture of Germain Smith (Kym’Asia) and the fresh vision of Morgan Creque (Trippy Tortuga).
Even the Premier, Dr. the Hon. Natalio D. Wheatley, hit the runway to show the world that our leadership stands behind our talent.
We love to see it.
Virgin Islands creatives continue to take up space! When it comes to the fashion industry, @igdalyah is filling the gap.
We’re excited to celebrate the launch of @gap x @harlemsfashionrow collection featuring designers of color, including St. Johnian designer with JVD roots, Iggy. 🇻🇮🇻🇬
Here’s an exclusive look at the launch party last night at Times Square.
