Neko ‘Bootleg Rocstar’ Kelly is a popular fashion stylist and creative director who recently received the Prime Minister Youth Award for Arts & Culture.
Known for creating stunning looks and concepts for celebrities, influencers and artistes, The Sunday Gleaner asked the in-demand Kelly to give us his take on the Duchess of Cambridge’s looks while she was on island for the royal visit with her husband, Prince William.
“This was a brilliant outfit to kick off the Jamaican leg of her tour. A very bold yellow in a way sets an optimistic tone for her visit. The choice of white pumps and clutch to top it all off was superb.”
“This might be my favourite look of the tour. There is so much going on with this dress, from the colours, to the stripes to a second layer of print. It was a lot, but it was perfect. It’s bold, comfortable and playful, which really embodies what resort or Caribbean style is.”
“The tailoring of this look is impeccable. Perfection actually. The all white with the pop of orange is the kind of pairing only a fashion girl would do and I love it.”
“So classic, timeless and regal. A Duchess in all her royal glory. This is the look from her Jamaica visit that I believe will be the most talked about and revisited for decades to come. Amazing.”
“The Duchess is on the pulse of spring fashion 2022 and this all-white lace moment is the evidence.”
“Duchess Kate knows green works great on her and she’s milking it. However, I wasn’t too crazy about the sleeves and the neckline of this dress.”
