New Orleans Zulu Ball 2019: All Hail the Queen

Mardi Gras season is in full swing in New Orleans and throughout the South. One of the biggest events of Mardi Gras season is the Zulu Ball in New Orleans, Louisiana. Hosted annually by the Krewe of Zulu, this year’s ball attracted over 18,000 attendees and also crowned a new queen. Today we are highlighting images of her coronation. We would love to see images of you and your friends at Zulu Ball. If you want to share your images please send using the hashtag #blacksouthernbelle on social media or tag us in your pictures.

Kailyn L. Rainey is the 2019 Queen of Zulu and she looks absolutely stunning in her beaded Mardi Gras Gown.

The Zulu organization is proud of its standing in the local community, but also takes pride in its national and international standing. The Zulu organization has been the subject of numerous television documentaries and newsprint and magazine articles. King Zulu 1949, Louis Armstrong, graced the pages of Time Magazine that year. Essence devoted a full half-hour segment of their weekly television series to Zulu’s impact on Carnival. Hordes of feature stories and photo essays have been done by international publications.

Such a beautiful train on this gown. Love seeing the Zulu shield at the bottom

Such a beautiful moment of the crowning of the 2019 Zulu Queen.
