Tribal Carnival band launch 2013 The Beauty of Nature (Stage Shots)

Caribana (Toronto Carnival) 2013 season is officially off to a beautiful start with Tribal Carnival's costume presentation The Beauty of Nature. It was held again at the Grand Luxxe, which is a good central location. 
 

 Butterflies

 

 Waterfall

 

 Birds

 

 

I am impressed with the shiny purple in Birds, the jewels in Pele, Butterflies cute wings, and most men's headpieces are stand outs, as are Oasis, Tribal, Autumn and Storm headpieces. Familiar Indian mas colours yellow & teal were used in Tribal, but the designers created their own touches to it. Love this costume! I also really like all the elements in Autumn.

Legends 2011!

Here are some back stage pictures of Tribal Knights Legends. Dexter didn't disappoint, the costumes and headpieces are fantastic. Trini-in-Toronto is saying something about Lent, so I have to get to bed now... we have tonnes more pictures of the stage presentation, which I'll post tomorrow.
