Super Hero Costume
Super Hero costume designed and produced for Zen Arts and Machel Montano. Machel wore this on stage for the Trinidad Soca Monarch contest & won the title. The base of the suit is a cotton lycra inner & outer layer with molded foam in between. The cape is a shiny lycra spandex with heavy duty velcro attachement points. The boot covers are vinyl over red Nike sneakers. The logo was laser cut foam attached with a spray-on headliner adhesive. One of Zen Arts' artists painted the muscle highlights. The goal was for the performer to have full range of movement, as he is a very energetic dancer known to bust out of his jeans. Mission Accomplished!
