I stumbled across these pictures the other day, showing the bit of work I did making Biana costumes for the London School of Samba's section of carnival.
I did a lot of work making these pot costumes - stencilling patterns on the fabric, and stitching the black PVC type fabric.
I also spent quite a few hours brushing ostrich feathers. They'd been dyed purple, and they needed brushing out whilst being dried out with a hair dryer. A repetitive task - but looks great in the end!
Photographs by Clare McGarrigle (of Carnival), and myself.
