Akimbo

Fashion Design And Artist Of Trinidad & Tobago

AKIMBO is an indepedent concept store and creative event space, showcasing

Caribbean fashion and accessory designers, artists and lifestyle products, located in the

Borough of Arima. It supports the strongest local and regional independent brands

across fashion, lifestyle and art. As an independent and creatively led project, the

concept focuses on providing a plaftorm for these talents to be exposed to the general

public in a way never seen before in Trinidad and Tobago. This is achieved by

appealing to the sensibilities of the everyday man and woman on the streets who would

have once thought that indigenous fashion and art were inaccessible.

AKIMBO's vision is to transform this creative space into something new and exciting,

supporting independent local and regional brands, artists and fashion designers and

establishing the Caribbean as an international centre of independent design and

manufacturing.

Architecturally, the Akimbo space covers 850 sq ft, resembles an art gallery and will feature an ever- changing roster of a curated collection of brands, unavailable elsewhere in East Trinidad. In addition, we will host a programme of educational, creative and cultural events. The space will also be available for meetings and small events which Akimbo will plan for clients.
