This platform runs on love
— and your support.

Help us pay the photographers, writers, stylists, and models who tell Caribbean fashion’s story. Every dollar goes directly to contributors across the Caribbean and diaspora.

We're just getting started...

Caribbean Lookbook has spent 16 years as an independent fashion and media platform — celebrating the designers, photographers, stylists, models, and storytellers who make Caribbean fashion one of the most vibrant, distinctive, and underrepresented bodies of creative work in the world.

We’ve done it without corporate backing. Without investor pressure. Without ads shaping what we cover. And we’ve done it because this community — you — kept showing up.

Now, we’re ready to grow. We want to bring on contributors from across the region and the diaspora. We want to commission stories, fund shoots, and — most importantly — pay every creative what they deserve. To do that, we need your support.

Give what you can

FROM THE HEART

One-time or recurring, no amount is too small. All of it goes to the work and the people behind it.

That’s it. No rewards. No tiers of access. Just the knowledge that you helped keep an independent Caribbean platform alive — and that the creatives who pour themselves into this work are a little better supported because of you.

BECOME A PATRON

A note to corporate donors...

If your organisation believes in the power of Caribbean storytelling, independent media, and the creative economy of our region, we would be honoured to have your support. We offer two distinct ways to engage with Caribbean Lookbook — giving and partnership — and we are clear about the difference.

BESPOKE

If you’d like to discuss how your organisation can support our mission, we’d love to hear from you. Let’s talk.

Philanthropic donations carry no editorial influence and no advertising benefits. Your contribution goes entirely to our contributor fund — and our gratitude is the only thing we offer in return.

BRANDED PARTNERSHIPS & SPONSORED CONTENT

Caribbean Lookbook also offers a limited number of branded partnership and sponsored content opportunities for organisations that wish to reach our engaged audience of Caribbean fashion lovers, creatives, and diaspora readers. These are commercial arrangements, handled entirely separately from our donor campaign, with rates and formats tailored to each partner.

If you are interested in a commercial partnership rather than — or in addition to — a philanthropic gift, we would be glad to share our media kit and discuss what might work for your brand.

What reaching our goal means for Caribbean creatives

  • $10,000: Establishes a contributor fund that pays writers and photographers for one year of commissions.
  • $25,000: Expands our team to include associate editors and dedicated outreach across 5 territories.
  • $50,000: Fully funds a year of editorial production — 12 major stories, 50+ paid contributors, and a new multimedia archive.

Every contribution is an act of love for Caribbean creativity.
