Founder of Bossy LDN and DJ-circuit-royalty, Izzy Bossy has been going to Notting Hill Carnival since she was one. Not only has she made a name for herself spinning decks around the capital since her early twenties, but at Carnival too - her favourite day of the year, “I wait the whole year just for Carnival!”
Growing up in Acton, west London, Carnival has played a major role in Bossy’s life. “I lived in an estate in Acton and Stardust mas band used to make all of their costumes in the community centre which was the hub of the estate. I used to be the little helper and they asked me to join, so I used to wear a big costume every year until I was about eighteen. When I got to eighteen I realised I wanted to go and explore without my mum watching me,” she tells me.
