EPIC Carnival (formerly Durham Mas), put on a great launch tonight at midnight, also at Chandni Hall. From the first section to the last, the costumes had nice colour combos, fun features and beautiful, bold elements. The trend was for most costumes to have high garter belts, certainly accentuating the assets.
Just as I was about to comment to a fellow photographer that fortunately SKF hadn't told us to respect the mas, he started in on it when there was a delay. Sigh. I had hoped this broken record wouldn't be repeated again this season. Surely MCs can find more things to comment on than telling the crowd who plays mas, to buy costumes. Steups. I'd hate for us mas supporters to have to go through this for Seven. More. Launches!
Anyhow, job well done designers, and models, who wore the creations wonderfully. The finale wrapped up at 1:15.
Khutulun
Easily my favourite bra. More than just a wire bra, the beautiful jeweled details really make it a work of mas art. Absolutely love it.
Best guys costumes.
Valhalla
Another well designed bra.
Diamond Dust
Such a pretty costume overall, although she had trouble with the headpiece. White done right!
Blazing Phoenix
I like the velvet used in these suits.
The Night's Watch
Guardian of the Glacier
Beautiful blue velvet costumes.
Mas on De Moon
Dracarus
My favourite feathers. Simple, yet wow.
Rebel Unicorn
Fun fringed waistband.
I also really like the shoulder necklaces.
My favourite headpiece.
Myths of the Sea
