Unused denim jackets, skirts, dresses, shirts and pants are collected, recycled and given new life by being made into costumes that also include the use of paper, cardboard, plastic soft drink bottles, packing materials and cable ties, the release said.
Jouvay was designed by Patrick Roberts, a 44 year old veteran of designing and building both adult and children mas, who also holds a bachelor’s degree in Carnival studies.
Jouvay – the ballet of life will feature eight sections: Rebellion, Revolution, Resistance, Renaissance, Reclamation, Rebirth, Rejuvenation and Revelation.
