Shakem Charles, TCI Top Model, graces Times of Islands CoverNewsFresh off his groundbreaking victory as the first-ever male winner of TCI Top Model, Cycle 6, Shakem Charles now graces the cover of Times of the Islands Fall 2025 issue—cementing his place as a trailblazer in Caribbean fashion. Alongside Shakem, finalists Hubert Prospere (first runner-up), and Brittney Bien-Amie (TCI top muse), join in a series of bold, fashion-forward images. Born and raised in St Vincent and the Grenadines, Shakem migrated to the Turks and Caicos three years ago. When TCI Top Model evolved its platform to a co-ed format—allowing both men and women to compete—he seized the moment. His bold decision was rewarded not only with his historic win but also with this iconic cover.
