The Public Service Ministry as at yesterday was a cut above the rest when the Mash committee team visited and Minister Jennifer Westford is wearing the costumes designers’ cap. Her Ministry is the first to show case its costumes and will be making it debut in the costumes float parade with an individual queen and 50 revellers.
The theme focuses on ensuring government’s focus on development of its human resources in the various sectors be it medical, Engineering or agriculture. There is also a special section for electricity with helmets that light up and the Minister said the concept is hers and with the help of her staff her costumes constructions were cost effective and made of materials bought locally at some unbelievable prices. “I decided to do this because most of the designers prices are exorbitant so I decided to do it myself and you wouldn’t believe how cheaper its is,” the proud Minister turn costume designer said.
The mash camp visits ended with the official launch of the Banks DIH 500 strong mash band which will be coming 500 strong. More details on that fantastic band in tomorrow issue.
