Saldenah put on a full scale production with performances from a spin studio, Socaszie, and Iwer George. Vendors including Cloré were set up in the lobby, and food was for sale.
The costume presentation began at 12:20, with a record number of 17 sections, and it wrapped up at 2:00.
I've got to applaud the models and stage coaching, as they were well rehearsed and showed the costumes beautifully. I can't emphasize enough how much we appreciate the models who take their time posing and look like they are in love with the mas they're wearing. Thank you for your professionalism launch after launch after launch. 👏
HOWEVER: To the FMC: those attending launches are band supporters, we are there to see the costumes and consider what we'll buy. Remaining bands yet to launch please take note. Prattling on about not storming and buying a costume sets a negative tone to your masqueraders in attendance. It ruins your otherwise great presentation to continue to hear respect de mas.

📌 Masqueraders DO respect de mas!

How much fun would taking this class be!
I really must get myself to the Weston Road classes!
Pow, the first costumes to hit the stage were strong!
I was pleased to see this section posed like this center stage.
Fabulously designed skirt, moved so well!
Favourite headpiece.
This is the type of different detail I like to see! The back of leg pieces.
Big, bold & beautiful design, and no feathers!
"Yuh done know Ronny always have something new and cool the MAN dem actually want to wear" says Trini-in-Toronto.
These wings for the win!
You see the smiles on those faces? THAT'S what you want to see in the crowd.
And those are the types of cheers from the crowd you want to hear!
Speaking of love, it starts with dazzling designs, but then it's in the hands of the models to bring it home. This group had the moves that got people to fall in love with their costumes. Job well done! 💯
