Each year the Carnival of Santa Cruz, held on the Canary island of Tenerife, Spain
attracts thousands of people to one of the most famous and most popular carnivals in the world. It is known as the most 'Brazilian' of all the Spanish carnivals. Crowds of people come together to experience the fiesta, to surround themselves with vibrant colour, up beat rhyme and most magnificent creations.
The Gala to elect the Carnival Queen is one of the main events.
Myself and the five other lucky students of Fashion Industry Practice were very fortunate to receive the chance to attend this spectacular event which was held on the 26th of February 2014.
16 contestants took stage to compete against one another and show off their fantasy-like costumes
but only one could take the reign. The amount of time, dedication and attention to detail that goes into these
magnificent creations is extremely worth while when you get to witness the work come together. The beauty of the designs were absolutely breath taking. I can honestly say I have never seen anything so beautiful in my life.
