It's a question of materials. We can use recycled materials, which has nearly zero cost, to which you only have to add the artist's work. We can make masks from pure gold with particular braids, decorations and jewels. So the cost can rise and we can go up to 300, 400 euros

It is a bit similar to modern fashion, for the man at least. We are talking about men. For women in the '800's still had all the crinolines. there were the Ball dresses and the evening dresses were very glamouros. Men had dark clothing, with a white string tie, and a top hat or a cylinder hat

There is the idea of doing something beautiful, but most of all unique, meaning to never repeat something already seen in the past, but trying to create somtehing that is always somewhat different, new. This is really what the competition is about, not so much against friends, as much as against oneself, trying to do every year something more beautiful than the past one.

Today we think about carnival has a place for masks, but these masks are something that we created in our times. Many dress like a '700 dame or nobleman of the times that were, but at that time there was no such hiding. People continued to dress in their everyday clothes holding or tying a mask in front of the eyes.

This event was listed by Vanity Fair as one of the top ten events in the world. Therefore I think it grasps the interest of many people, not only of my own. I think there will be celebrities, because it's a nice chance for them also to hide their own identity and participate at a wild scale party.

So, the cost is 400 (Euros) for the entrance and the dinner is other 400 (Euros), so the total is 800 (Euros). But I think it's really worth this, because it's something unique: you have this event only once per year.

14. SOUNDBITE: (Italian) Marta Fontana, designer's assistant
Antonia's costumes are the most exceptional in Venice, the majority of them are historical costumes and on that basis, she adds her imagination to them. This year, for example, there are many butterflies, fairy queens, Titania, Oberons (fairy Queen and King from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream), autumns and springs, so, according to an historical background, she plays with imagination and creates dresses with colours that might be not perfectly philological, but they help people dreaming, which is the magic of the carnival, and the magic of the Ballo del Doge.

A look behind the mask
Venice's annual Carnival festivities get under way on Saturday. The two-week bout of merrymaking and revellery is an excellent showcase for craftsmen of the city, who have been making masks for the event for centuries. A visit with one master mask artist.
Venice's famous Carnival masks and costumes
(27 Jan 2016) LEAD-IN:
It's carnival time in Venice and once again masked people dressed in spectacular costumes have started to fill the streets and squares of the canal city.
This year Carnival is celebrating the army of mask makers, tailors, weavers and glass makers who are helping recreate the magic and colour of 18th Century Venice over the next few weeks.
STORY-LINE:
Intricately designed masks, grandiose costumes - it could only be Venice Carnival.
And this year the people who have been working all year long to create the spectacular costumes that mark the carnival are being celebrated with a special tribute.
Starting January 30th visitors will be able to see images of the craftsmen and women at work on a big screen in St Mark's Square. Actors will recreate the artisans activities from 18th Century workshops showing how the crafts have remained unchanged over the centuries.
Local artisans such as mask makers, tailors and shoemakers will also gather on the square for workshops.
Whether strolling along the canals or attending an elaborate ball - the Venetian mask is the signature of Carnival.
Master mask maker, Gualtiero Dall'Osto from the Tragicomica atelier in Venice has been making masks for 35 years. He says far from hiding the face - the masks allow the wearers to reveals their true selves.
The mask is inside a person, is inside his capability to look inside himself, to find himself, and Carnival is the chance, the time, when this is freely allowed, so we have to keep on recovering this space as best we can, because it is the space of creativity in which we allow ourselves to look inside and find our inner masks.
The cost of a mask ranges from around 70 euros for a paper mask (USD 76) to anything up to 2000 euros (USD 2175) and beyond for a bespoke piece.
Francesco Briggi tailors for Pietro Longhi atelier (studio), one of the most famous craft houses in Venice.
Here costumes fit for lords and ladies are sewn with intricate detail for clients that have ordered up to a year in advance.
It takes almost a month to create a costume. If a person decides to come to Carnival for ten days then is not possible to do anything. We have many clients, loyal carnival goers, who are already thinking about the next carnival the end of this carnival and we meet during the year to be able to realise what they wish.
Costumes from the 18th Century and the Renaissance are popular. Many clients ask for Doge and Dogaressa outfits - mimicking the medieval rulers of state - others opt for characters painted by the great Venetian painters of that era.
Outfits start at around 3,000 euros (USD 330) and the atelier says there is no price limit. Sometimes clients ask for adornments made from gold or precious stones - others want original fabric from the 18th Century. The cost is infinite depending on requirements.
It's an expensive pastime for serious Carnival fans. According to the atelier these types of client would not allow themselves to be seen in the same costume more than once.
Often costumes are hired at a cost of 250 / 300 euros (USD 270 / 325) a day and are worn throughout the carnival. The bought costume is saved for special balls or the Mardi Gras Ball on the last night of Carnival.
There is this necessity to be able to amaze the people coming to Venice and obviously, which is the best stage in Venice to do all this? The excuse ...the tradition of Carnival gives us these infinite possibilities. Over the years we've been able to create an historic, artistic and entertaining strand that combines all of these things, says Briggi.
Venice Carnival runs from 23rd January to 9th February 2016.
