Carlton Brown brought his award winning Jamaican swagger to LG Fashion Week. He's one of the Caribbean's biggest designers and this was his North American debut. It was a really fun show and a crowd-pleaser. Did I mention that Carlton Brown does menswear? That would explain the reaction: hot men in cool clothing.

The soundtrack got people started. Some well know reggae tunes belted out that got many dancing in their seats. I was definitely one of them wanting to get up and bust out some winding on the runway. I was even dared to do it. There was so much positive energy in the crowd you couldn't help but smile and get into it.

Carlton Brown's energy is incredible. Maybe he stores it all in that trademark mole of his? He was in full control of every detail, running back and forth, ruffling hair, primping shirts; starting buttons then having his dressers finish doing the rest up. Backstage with his show was intense.

Carlton Brown definitely impressed the crowd yesterday at his 8pm show at LG Fashion Week. And Stacey Mackenzie finally made a runway appearance!
