As we are currently faced with the new norm of operating post pandemic, persons are either still dressed in ‘cookie-cutter uniforms’ or may be bordering along the lines of too casual since persons visit the office less. We wish to modernize and define day-to-day Corporate attire, but retain professionalism.
We invite you to see through the eyes of our Designers. We are Out of Many One People, but still have a European Influence. Let’s create the look that layers less clothes, lowering energy costs, yet is bold and remains professional, setting us apart as Out of Many One People.
Although Apparel and Accessories will be the highlight, we will have our selected Artisans showcasing their products representing the island’s creative industries, all in the Suga Lifestyle Curated environment of Tasty Bites and Beverages.

Suga Lifestyle’s Art and Lifestyle Expo Launch held over a week ago highlighted Suga Lifestyle’s GW Art pictured, and our promotion of local businesses and entrepreneurs, with a focus on the Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (MSME) sector, showcasing Art, Fashion, Food and Lifestyle.
However, as with most of our Events, another observation was highlighted by our Keynote Speaker, Senator the Honourable, Aubyn Hill. Though a few male vendors were showcased, vendors were predominantly female, also highlighting the critical role of Women and their contribution to the Creative Industry and Commerce, which remains vital to the stimulation of our economy.
We Empower MSMEs, but have to give kudos to and showcase that the the driving force behind the majority of the Businesses we select, happen to be Women. That says a lot in 2023. Is the World Ready?
