Earlier in the evening, the show kicked off with Haitian designer David Andre's collection. The collection titled 'Sea, Sex and Sand', lived up to its name. The line started with mostly white pieces. The barefoot models strutted their way down the runway in fashion forward pieces.

The House of Lamaica collection by Marvalyn Nelson impressed with its use of the Jamaican colours throughout the collection.
The Meiling collection was well received by the audience. Adding variety to the event, this was the only collection which featured a live performance from an artiste whilst the models strutted down the runway.
The Lee Annz Designz by Suzilee Chambers was also enjoyed by the audience. The ready-to-wear colourful resort wear pieces were fashion forward and trendy.
One of the most outstanding collections of the night was the Jae Jolly collection. The pieces were edgy and colourful.
The last segment of the show had collections that reflected the Jamaican culture.
The Mutamba collection was Rastafarian inspired. There were mostly black pieces, with splashes of red, green and gold. The audience was transfixed on the collection which seemed to resonate well with them.
Cedella Marley's High Tide collection along with her Olympic Apparel collection was also a hit with the audience. The High Tide collection consisted of bikinis, dresses, shirts etc., some of which had images of Bob Marley.
The Olympic designs, which included podium and ceremony wear, will be worn by the entire team, including three-time Jamaican Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt.
At the end of Cedella's collection there was yet another break to make way for international artiste Estelle. By this time however, most of the patrons were already making their way to the exits.
Estelle took to the stage and reeled off hits such as No Substitute Love and Come Over.
She also invited patrons onstage to dance with her while she covered Bob Marley's song Is This Love. Her hit single American Boy, was also a hit with the audience.
