Nelsion Nurse, who was named Most Promising Designer for Guyana Fashion Weekend 2010, presents his first major collection ‘Mystic Fury’ tomorrow at the Theatre Guild.

According to a press release, Nelsion describes Mystic Fury as a dialogue with his spirit, telling his own journey through fabric selection, style, and silhouette. He crafts designs that speak volumes about his own metamorphosis. Nelsion said his mother Joan Woolford is a great influence and a resource for him to bounce off many of his ideas and plans; not necessarily for sanction, but for motivation, the release said.

Wearing the designer’s clothing and that of supporting designers in the show will be Guyana’s lead models, Meleesa Payne and Royan Abrams along with Carles Griffith, Natalya Thomas, Yohlanda Kerr, Latoya Whitehead, and Tyrone Hamid. Also appearing will be Jackie Hanover, Y3K and Keon Heywood, along with
