Masquerade 2000 Band Launch


Masquerade 2000 had their 2012 presentation 'Rewind - a celebration of 20yrs of mas' on the 24th March at the Central London venue 'Gable'

SEE: Soca Scene Review of the entire launch night.

You can view more costume photos and information on their website but here is a sample of their  costumes:


         Africa Unfolds



Gems




I have a Dream Male & Female




Ole




Spectrum Female









There you have it M2K 2012 presentation

D Insider View : definitely not impressed at all with these costumes the last 2 although they were part of the launch presentation doesn't appear on the site , sources say they have been axed (not confirmed ) but if they were axed I would say that was a good decision. 
The only good think I can credit M2k for, is the use of material ,as you may know the weather in London is very temperamental and at least these costumes can keep any masquerader slightly warmer than the usual costumes.But no credit can be given to those granny-ish designs and colour mixtures for the last 2
This is one band I can rule out of my books for 2012 costume options.

What do you think of these costumes? Would love to hear your thoughts. Leave a comment or email me.

Nottinghill Carnival

Notting Carnival is one of Europe's Biggest Street festival and is always celebrated on the August Bank Holiday where every year the streets of West London come alive, with the sounds and smells of Europe’s biggest street festival. Twenty miles of vibrant colorful costumes surround over 40 static sound systems, hundreds of Caribbean food stalls,over 40,000 volunteers and over 1 million Notting Hill carnival revellers.

The Notting Hill Carnival usually gets under way on the Saturday with the steel band competition. Sunday is Kids’ Day. On the Bank Holiday Monday, the main parade takes place. It generally begins on Great Western Road, then winds its way along Chepstow Road, on to Westbourne Grove, and then Ladbroke Grove. In the evening, the floats leave the streets in procession, and people carry continue partying at the many Notting Hill Carnival after parties.
