The Mystic Krewe of Femme Fatale is a groundbreaking Mardi Gras krewe in New Orleans, Louisiana. Founded in 2013, it is the first krewe established by African American women for African American women, although all women are welcome to join. The krewe parades on the traditional Uptown route on the first Sunday of Mardi Gras season and is known for its community service projects, including the Say Yes to the Prom Dress initiative, which provides prom dresses and more to teenage girls.

In addition to their Mardi Gras parade, the krewe has several dance groups, such as Cherchez La Femme, comprised of Femme Fatale members who perform choreographed dances in parades and events. They also have youth groups, Future Femmes and Le Jeune Femmes, which mentor girls ranging from 7 to 20 years old. With a rich history and a commitment to empowering women and giving back to the community, the Mystic Krewe of Femme Fatale is a vibrant and inclusive part of New Orleans' Mardi Gras tradition.

Better than I expected it to be. Only 14 floats and usually 2 marching groups in between the floats. It was super late (not their fault) but it went past pretty quickly. That was a good thing...
