Jamaica-born designer Francesca Lake, a graduate of Central Saint Martins, is set to unveil her highly anticipated fall 2024 collection, aptly named “Cross Roads.” Drawing inspiration from the intricate interplay between style and occasion, Lake’s latest work encapsulates the juxtaposition of modesty and indecency prevalent in both popular and religious cultures.
The genesis of “Cross Roads” can be traced back to Lake’s final school project, an artful short film titled “Church and Dancehall.” This cinematic exploration served as the catalyst for a collection that seeks to capture the essence of divergent cultural influences of her native Jamaica.
Comprising an array of colorful pieces, including hats, dresses, pants, graphic separates, and the bold “Bumbo Claat” door knocker earrings, Lake’s fall 2024 collection promises to be a compelling blend of tradition and contemporary expression. The collection is set to make its debut this spring, showcasing the designer’s keen eye for detail and commitment to pushing the boundaries of fashion and style.
