The G1 outlet engaged Clara Novais, a content creator and self-proclaimed 'professional reveler' from BH, to explore the upcoming trends that span from complete costumes to intricate accessories that elevate any carnival production.

Novais emphasizes that trends for Carnival 2026 are designed to inspire rather than restrict creativity, serving as a starting point for individual expression. The focus is not on adhering strictly to these trends but on adapting them to one’s personal style. This approach encourages carnival-goers to interpret and personalize their looks, fostering an inclusive and diverse celebration. The article highlights various suggestions from Novais aimed at helping participants find the perfect look for their block parties.
