Each ethnic group contributed significantly to the both traditions and traditional dress of Grenada. American influences came about during the rise in migration of Grenadians to the United States.The introduction of Americanize media also gave rise to the transition of influences that in turn affected the overall traditional clothing practices within the country.Grenada’s fashion industry is yet to be as development as that of the Unites Sates of America. However today it is proven to be a mini reflection of what it worn in the United States. Methods are explored as to how Grenada’s traditional elements can be prompted in today’s world of fashion. With the fast going trends around the world conclusion was made so as to follow the over shape of trendy garment and highlighting it with Grenada’s traditional elements.
