Carnival Queens
Over the years, Rossini van Wijk has trained many beautiful and talented girls, who all had the dream, of one day becoming a carnival queen.
Becoming a queen is not easy, there is a lot of competition going on, and a real queen is an ambassador, a face, a spokesperson, who will not only be representing herself, but sometimes also a carnival group, an organisation, a school, a club, a district, a state, a city and yes, sometimes even a whole country!
Girls who want to become a queen, not only have to look presentable, they have to be able to give speeches in public, be able to improvise, be able to dance, be able to present, carry and know everything about different types of costumes, with or without headpieces, shoulderpieces or pieces.
Being a carnival queen also puts you in the spot, and you will have to do interviews for magazines, radio and tv programs and you will be getting many invatations to attend different types of social events.
This means that you will always have to look your best, no matter what, and be able to smile and shake hands forever and do this charmingly and elegantly, for you are a spokesperson, an embassador for a very important social and cultural event.
Rossini van Wijk has trained and prepared many candidates, all expiring to be a queen, be it a beauty queen or a carnival queen.
He has also designed the different outfits needed for the queen election, such as casual wear, evening going and ofcourse the carnival costumes.
Rossini s designes have also won several prices for best costume and some candidates have also won with best show, all of which was choreographed by Rossini van Wijk.
Many candidates in Holland and Aruba have won several prizes.
In Aruba carnival is a huge celebration and lasts for nearly two months, with the two big parades in San Nicolaas and Oranjestad.
Preparations start as soon as the big parade finishes and everybody is looking forward to the next year.
In Holland the yearly carnival parade is in Rotterdam and attracts hundred thousands people each year and has become one of Holland's biggest social and multicultiral attractions.
