Anya's Tribe

Trinidad Carnival 2012 is fast approaching and even though I won't be on the road with Tribe this year I have to agree that they outdid themselves with this one. The carnival band had the pleasure of enlisting the talented Anya Ayoung-Chee to design a section for their 2012 presentation. Anya recently won "Projet Runway: Season 9" and her talent is becoming more and more indisputable. The costume is absolutely gorgeous ad quite possibly my all time favorite carnival costume. Being of the plus size persuasion, one has to choose carnival costumes very carefully. This costume not only brings carnival and fashion together but eludes the what seems to be commonplace nakedness of the tradition. I want!
