This is the Queen of the Carnival of Barranquilla. The first day of the Carnival of Barranquilla the elected queen of the year parades over her allegoric car at the start of the parade of the Battle of the Flowers. Behind her many folkloric groups, cumbiambas and musicians follow her lead.
Her outfit is a dress made with snippets of multicolor cloth, laces and feathers of diverse folkloric and traditional dances’ outfits that are part of the Carnival; because the queen represents the union of each of them and her mission is to share the joy of the carnival with everyone. Her skirt is wide and has layers of ruffles with the colors of the flag of Colombia. Finally a beautiful crown with sequins and feathers adorn her hair.
