I Want Karen I’s Dress!

But just take a look at the GORGEOUS detail in this ensemble for Karen I, Queen of Carnavál Internacional de Mazatlán 2013! It’s some of the most beautiful costuming I’ve seen in a long, long time!

Front and back are both incredible. She was dressed Egyptian style, I’m guessing to represent the movie Cleopatra?

Lidia, Queen of the Juegos Florales, had a gorgeous dress as well. I’ll post that slideshow below. But for me, I need the queen’s dress! 😉

Earlier I wrote a post about the incredibly talented woman and her team who sew these incredible costumes. Click here to read it if you’d like.
