MONDAYWEAR

Carnival MondayWear is alternative attire worn by revellers on the road.
Designs can range from minimal bikinis to full coverage pieces to complete costumes.
MondayWear originated out of a desire to expand road wear options for carnival.

SECTIONS:

Canboulay // Jab Jab // Junkanoo 1 & 2 //
Kadooment // Sugar Mas

PRICING:
CI$275

CANBOULAY

Canboulay MondayWear includes bodywear, headpiece, 2 leg pieces
Inspired by Trinidad & Tobago - fire red, bold black, and steelpan silver
Designed by Sunshine

Canboulay (from the French cannes brulées, meaning burnt cane) is a precursor to Trinidad and Tobago Carnival. The festival is also where calypso music has its roots. It was originally a harvest festival, at which drums, singing, dancing and chanting were an integral part.

JAB JAB

Jab Jab MondayWear includes bodywear, 2 arm pieces, 2 leg pieces
Inspired by Grenada - the iridescent shimmer of oil and grease
Designed by Rochelle Grace

Jab Jab, which is believed to be one of the oldest Carnival characters, can be traced to the time when slavery was prevalent in the Caribbean and slaves were forbidden to participate in Carnival. When slavery was abolished, freed slaves took to the street painting themselves in black to represent their black shiny skin to celebrate their freedom. Jab Jab is core to the culture of Grenada. In fact, the Jab Jab is uniquely Grenadian, and is an aspect of their culture that distinguishes the Spice Island from other islands within the Caribbean region.

JUNKANOO (1)

Junkanoo (1) MondayWear includes bodywear, headpiece, neckpiece to arm sleeve, 2 leg pieces
Inspired by the Bahamas - a kaleidoscope of colours
Designed by Sweet Swim

Jankunu, also known as Junkanoo, is a festival that is celebrated as far back during slavery, and presently hosted as a street parade with music, dance, and costumes. Its origin, despite being claimed by several islands in the English speaking Caribbean, points strongly to Jamaica, and was later spread throughout the rest of the Caribbean. The Junkanoo Parade is the main carnival festival in the Islands of The Bahamas. In the Cayman Islands, Junkanoo was carried out in the early morning hours of New Years Day in Bodden Town.

JUNKANOO (2)

Junkanoo (2) MondayWear includes bodywear and headpiece
Inspired by the Bahamas - a kaleidoscope of colours
Designed by Sweet Swim

Jankunu, also known as Junkanoo, is a festival that is celebrated as far back during slavery, and presently hosted as a street parade with music, dance, and costumes. Its origin, despite being claimed by several islands in the English speaking Caribbean, points strongly to Jamaica, and was later spread throughout the rest of the Caribbean. The Junkanoo Parade is the main carnival festival in the Islands of The Bahamas. In the Cayman Islands, Junkanoo was carried out in the early morning hours of New Years Day in Bodden Town.

KADOOMENT

Kadooment MondayWear includes bodywear
Inspired by Barbados - the ultramarine sea and golden sand
Designed by Sunshine

‘Kadooment’ is a Bajan phrase meaning ‘large party.’ This holiday is centuries old, dating back to the time of slavery. Barbados was one of the biggest sugar cane producers in the 1700s because of slave labor. Kadooment Day and Crop Over day were introduced in the late 18th century to celebrate the successful harvest of the sugar crop. Those who worked on sugar cane plantations got the rare opportunity to smile, laugh, and be merry. It’s a celebration of life, freedom, and ancient history.

SUGAR MAS

Sugar Mas MondayWear includes bodywear, 2 arm pieces, 2 leg pieces
Inspired by St Kitts & Nevis - green fertile lands, yellow year-round sunshine, and red passion for independence
Designed by Rochelle Grace

St. Kitts and Nevis’ National Carnival, affectionately known as Sugar Mas, takes place between the months of November and January. Whatever you refer to it as, one thing’s for sure: there’s no better way to experience Kittitian culture.

MALE ROADWEAR

PRICING:
CI$275

SECTION:
MAS DOMNIK

Mas Domnik male roadwear includes Iz We Carnival t-shirt, shorts with pockets, feathered headpiece, and 2 feathered arm pieces
Inspired by Dominica - a display of social solidarity and cultural explosion of art, music, and dance
Designed by Honamic Designs

Mas Domnik is considered by the people of Dominica as the Caribbean’s most original Carnival, dubbed ‘The Real Mas’, and brings together African and French traditions. What began as a tradition of costume festivals and carousing by slaves celebrating their freedom through masquerade, dancing and singing in the streets soon became a fundamental aspect of carnival, as it was a rare opportunity for revellers to celebrate a culture uniquely their own.
