“It’s Carib or Amerindian for ‘of the sun’…. You know me, I have this earthly kinda vibe and I like all these island stuff. I like to represent the island vibe.”

Stephanie says onesies in her swimwear collection are customisable.

That’s just how Trinidad and Tobago singer, Stephanie Kalloo described her move to enter the merchandising market in a chat recently with EBUZZTT.COM. The young singer who’s been in the music game for a few years, having delivered songs like, ‘Somebody,’ ‘Take It Up’ and ‘Dan It Up’ with fellow Trinidad and Tobago entertainer, Mark Hardy, is now the face and name behind a brand called, WeJu Wear, which is in every sense of the word, an island style line. According to the young entrepreneur, items are customisable- something that will allow those interested to make their purchases, uniquely theirs.

“This is like my thing to let women  understand that they don’t always have to fit in- they don’t always have to wear heels. This is meant to encourage women to just be comfortable and still be stylish,” said Kalloo. She said this is the reason behind her choice of an interchangeable strap for the sandal. “They can always switch it up and put their own personal flair into what’s being worn. They can add different colour straps. The ‘onesie’ swimwear is customisable so that they can put whatever slogan they’d like on it but I’ll have a few signature pieces to put out there, so folks can look forward to that soon,” she said.

Separately, Stef told EBUZZTT that she’s got a new song set for release soon. “It’s called ‘Pretty Pretty’. It’ll be launched by VP Records on July 1st and I did that with Collin Yorke AKA Bulby, a  producer from Jamaica,”said Kalloo. She explained that she’s recorded three songs in Jamaica and this will be the first of those releases. “The vibe is real old school, dancehall but with a new flavour in the mix- a pop flavour. I can’t wait for people to hear it,” she said excitedly.

With plans afoot to market both her clothing line and music simultaneously, Stephanie said people can expect to see her wearing much of  her clothing in video shoots and around the town. The WeJu line is visible and available via online social media platforms- Facebook and Instagram. “I really see women who’re on the go rocking this line of clothing. It’s comfortable!” she reiterated. She says she has plans to get Caribbean celebrities to rock her WeJu line, another marketing and branding effort she’ll be employing. On a final note, Stef told us a percentage of all sales will go toward her children’s foundation, “Precious Are We Foundation.” The money, she explained will help in purchasing books, food and clothing for at least one child, each month.

Caribbean Fashion Is A Big Deal. Designer, Ecliff Elie Expands With Women In Mind.

Caribbean fashion is top tier. In a world of copy and paste designs, Caribbean brands like the incomparable Ecliff Elie, stand in a class of their own. Earlier this month, the menswear brand made a major announcement and whether you’ve heard or not, we’re here to tell you, this is huge.

The Ecliff Elie brand will now be delivering its seamless, tailored appeal to women. The brand is known for its precision tailoring and disciplined garment construction so with that at its foundation, women can now feel the complete effect of the Ecliff Elie touch. The company steps out into this aspect of its business after what it says has been years of delivering this service privately to women. Dubbed ‘Bespoke — Tailored for Women,’ Ecliff Elie is now offering the service, at scale.

The introduction reflects a focused extension of Elie’s established approach to tailoring – one built on proportion, control, and consistency. Each garment is developed through a guided process that considers posture, movement, and presence, ensuring that the final result aligns with how the individual operates and presents herself.

From custom blazers to trousers, skirts, and dresses, customers will now be able to get their custom designed Ecliff Elie apparel, through a consultation-led process where every decision—from cut to finish—is deliberate. The company says fabric selection will be approached with the same level of discipline, with materials chosen for structure, performance, and longevity, allowing each piece to maintain its standard over time.

“This is not a new direction,” Elie states. “It is a continuation of work I have done over time, now introduced with structure and clarity.”

With more than three decades of experience, Ecliff Elie has consistently positioned presentation as a defining factor in how individuals are perceived. His work has guided clients across industries to approach style as a matter of precision and intent rather than preference.

“When the garment is correct, everything changes,” he adds. “You move differently. You carry yourself differently. That is the standard.”

As more women continue to operate at the highest levels across business, leadership, and professional environments, the demand for tailoring that reflects both authority and individuality has grown. This offering responds to that shift with a process designed to deliver consistency, clarity, and control.

Through Bespoke — Tailored for Women, Ecliff Elie continues to refine his approach while maintaining a clear focus on craftsmanship, attention to detail, and a disciplined standard of execution.
