The most classy, sophisticated and elegant carnival celebration is definitely the Venice Carnival. There are many splendid carnivals around the world, but nowhere else the costumes are so opulent, stylish and aristocratic as here. In most places, it’s all about looking funny and colourful, crazy and sparkly – but not in Venice. Here “funny” is out of place. It’s all about superior elegance, mystery and magic. There is nothing like it.
