Daryl all i can say is these costumes are

Wow it looks like you did a very nice job Daryl. But I'm having a hard time seeing the detail of the costumes. Maybe if you use a black cloth in the background so the costumes can jump off a little more on camera. So far I'm feeling the lavender the most and the bra straps are very unique I like them. I think the waist belts can be thinner and not as wide. Your headpieces are on and look very pretty too. Congrats.

I agree.

Thanks Nekeisha, yuh know all I looking for is meh free exposure... so tell yuh friends aiight! And if yuh in Boston for Carnival yuh know what to do!!!!

Thanks yo, it really didnt take that long, its about a vision and knowing what and how you want to do things. I ahve been doing this for a while so its like second nature to me and fortunately enough for me I have a genuine love for the craft rather than looking at it as a business! So you will find true beauty in what I do. Thanks for your comments though, stay tuned!

will do

Hey Pebbles,
Now I am going to answer you "letter style" paragraphs and all. LOL.
No but seriously you would have a hard time to see the detail. I particularly adjusted the pictures so that you would only see an idea. I plan on detailing certain pictures so you could see the type of fringe beading and applique work I used this year. Real Trinidad style and I am very proud!
Secondly, the waistband are actually standard size, what is making them look wider than they are is the length of the fringe bead which is between 4 to 6 inches and start from the middle of the waistband! So you getthe effect. This works well with women who have natrually smooth skin but find that they get the inevitable stretch mark or two in the bikini area. It hides really well, especially those women who doh like to wear stockings! SO you see I cater to everyone, cause is woman I like to see on the road looking and feeling sexy yuh know! I hope I gave you some clarity to the background of my designing and did not go overboard with my overt way of critiqing the opposite sex!
