Random history lesson of the day. I looked up the history of Brazils Carnival costumes. Makes sense that the costume era would decline in the 1930s because materials cost too much. The war and all. They also have to be cool because its hot out. Popular fashions flux with the changing of the times. Donkeys and Rajahs used to be popular but now its harlequins and merry makers. At some points in the history masks were actually banned. Any black men wearing masks were whipped in the public square. White men were sent to a colony.(maybe like a work colony?) brazilcarnival.br/culture/brazil-de-janeiro-carnival-costumes-carnaval
