Sights Seen at the Mystic Krewe of The Lords of Leather Bal Masque XXVIII
This is a Mardi Gras tradition called a Bal Masque, and this particular Bal Masque is also a Bal Tableau. It is as much theater or anti-fashion show as ball and the involves a grand procession of elaborately costumed walkers each portraying a specific concept within a grander general theme.
