About the Brand

SHOMA THE LABEL is a luxury womenswear brand defined by refined design, cultural nuance, and intentional craftsmanship. Each piece is created to evoke a sense of presence quietly powerful, deeply feminine, and undeniably modern.

Founded in 2020 by Creative Director Shoma Persad, the brand is shaped by a personal exploration of heritage, identity, and expression. Drawing from Indian and Caribbean influences, the brand brings together diverse perspectives, translating them into contemporary silhouettes that feel both timeless and distinct.

Leaning into a deep love and appreciation for print, Shoma creates garments for the modern woman as an avenue for vibrant self-expression celebrating the beauty, depth, and style of her culture through design. A refined and sophisticated approach underpins the brand’s aesthetic, offering a point of view that reflects the richness and elegance of the Caribbean.

At its core is a study in balance. Structure meets fluidity, strength meets softness, and tradition meets modernity. Clean, architectural lines are softened by movement and drape, while considered detailing and luxurious fabrics elevate each garment with a sense of purpose and restraint.

With a global outlook, SHOMA THE LABEL seeks to bring Trinbagonian culture into a contemporary fashion dialogue creating pieces that reflect the many layers and evolving narrative of the Caribbean, shaped through the lens of Shoma’s own journey.

Rooted in craftsmanship and guided by intention, our brand creates pieces that transcend seasons designed not only to be worn, but to be felt.

SHOMA THE LABEL stands for women who carry history in their bones and elegance in their stride ,women who know that where they come from is just as powerful as where they are going.

The SS26 Collection

A THREAD ACROSS THE WATER
Spring / Summer 2026

This collection was born from a journey that began long before I did.

In the late 1800s, my great -grandfather left Agra, India, crossing oceans as an Indian indentured labourer in search of a future he could not yet see but only imagine. He left behind his homeland, his language, his ancestors, and everything familiar, guided only by courage, faith, and the promise of something better.

What he carried with him was not just survival but hope.

This collection is a tribute to that bravery. It honors the men and women who stood at the edge of the unknown, hearts full of fear and possibility, choosing to believe in a life beyond hardship. Their journeys shaped generations. Their sacrifices built the foundation on which we now stand.

Every silhouette, every drape, every movement in this collection reflects that duality: softness and strength, beauty and resilience, heritage and rebirth.

The flowing lines echo the ocean crossings.
The sheer layers speak to vulnerability.
The strength of the tailoring reflects the unbreakable spirit of those who came before us.

This is not simply a collection.
It is a love letter to ancestry.
A celebration of migration.
A reclamation of identity.
