- W2071874473 abstract "In 1955, a Free World's Fair of Peace and Confraternity was held in the Caribbean-island nation of the Dominican Republic to celebrate the twenty-fifth year of the regime of strongman Rafael L. Trujillo (1930-1961). 1 A full year of trade fairs, exhibits, dances and performances culminated in a floral promenade that showcased the dictator's daughter, sixteen year-old María de los Angeles del Corazón de Jesús Trujillo Martínez, better known as Angelita, who was crowned queen during the central Carnival parade. One-third of the nation's national budget was spent on this gala affair, a good portion of which was invested in Italian designer Fontana gowns for chic Angelita and her entourage of 150 princesses. Queen Angelita's white silk satin gown was beyond fantasy proportions: it had a 75-foot train and was decorated with 150 feet of snow-white Russian ermine--the skins of 600 animals--as well as real pearls, rubies and diamonds. The total cost of the gown was U.S.$80,000, not an insignificant fortune at the time. In full regalia, her costume replicated that of Queen Elizabeth I, replete with erect collar, and adorned with a brooch and scepter that totaled another $75,000 (Crassweller 294; Ferreras, Trujillo 80; Ornes 219). For $1000, two imperial hairdressers were flown in from New York to set the royal coiffure. A full army of street sweepers scrubbed by hand the central malecón or boardwalk of the capital city of Ciudad Trujillo (Trujillo City, orig. Santo Domingo), the civic promenade where Angelita's float would process, to protect Her Majesty's snow-white robe. Her royal entry was made on a mile of red carpet, and in the company of hundreds of courtiers. A new western extension of the city was even built for the fair, that became municipal office space after the event. This national extravaganza surpassed all other events of the regime in its excesses of magisterial pomp and spending. The fair framed the dictator's daughter as a charismatic center of national value and the numenous totem of the regime, the nation and even, the free (sic) world (Geertz Centers)." @default.
