Made a new outfit

Made this from a long patent leather coat with a peplum from a drag queen. I am just learning how to sew and am ridiculously proud of it.

Cut of the bottom of the coat. Stoned the lapel on the upper part and added the shoulder fringe.

Flipped the bottom of the coat and made chaps. Made a necktie from the peplum.

Then I bought some see-through underwear and added stones to the inside for some sparkle. Finishing touches with a corset and a packer for some shape.

What do you think?

First attempt at a king look (cis gay man)

I love drag, both kings and queens, and I've been playing with makeup for years now, and I decided to try out a more kingly look. His name is Adam Glambert. What do you think? Any tips for making it better?

Conceptualizing Looks

Hi so I’m someone who has an interest in doing drag and has plans to do so hopefully soon, I’m just in a financial spot where that’s not really viable plus the queer scene where I live is practically non existent or just really hard to find so actually going out and performing is a bit of a later in the future step for my drag, for the near future definitely gonna be a bedroom king

So anyways for now I’ve just been thinking of looks and stuff, my style or what I’m wanting to do is very camp, very recognizable to me, inspired by games and shows/movies I like, my Perspective with thinking of drag looks is through the lense of character design so how I think of colors, silhouette, and concept are the same ways I would think of making a character

When I start thinking of a character or a drag look I make a mood board, it helps get my ideas down on paper which helps lock in ideas and edit them so they don’t just become a blurry mess in my head so here’s some mood boards I’ve made, We’ve got:

-Vampire who was turned to stone and left for ages

-Fairy cult member from a secluded village

-Lobster guy who attended a beach barbecue

-And easter bunny, that’s it just Easter bunny :3

(I also included tracks I could see myself performing to with these looks :>)

First Time in Costume and Make Up!

Hi Everyone!

Aspiring Baby-King here, and just wanted to share my first time trying everything on. Actually going from my concept to putting pieces on was such an eye opener and really showed me what I'm still missing in my make up kit! Would love to hear any additional feedback while I keep practicing and refining

I'm aiming for a sort of 70s preppy dad-rock (ala Billy Joel) but ended up more in a Bogart... 🤔

Does anyone feel a little odd about not doing "typical" drag?

In my area there's a lot of drag queens, some kings, but I haven't really seen much of me, a creature/king. I've been focusing on cats the musical costumes, and everyone does like it, and so do I! I don't think I'd be comfortable as a typical queen/king in drag.

It's just that I haven't really seen someone like myself in my area. It's a little nerve wracking when most of the performances I go to have queens in fancy dresses and I'm here in my handmade cat costumes lol. My area isn't really a big city you know?

I really love doing these cat characters, I have a whole list of them I could do. It's so exciting to bring my special interest into drag. I have a jumping off point for the moves, the songs, the looks, but I make it my own, too. Like any collars I wear while in costume are soft and sensory friendly for me! That type of thing. I also want to bring in some other musical themed stuff into my drag, change it up a little bit...perhaps some rocky horror, some little shop of horrors, anything wacky like that.

I do get compliments on my stuff a lot, I just sometimes feel a little insecure! I've only performed 3 times so maybe as I continue, the confidence to show up how I am will keep getting better?

Side note: I want to do a cat in trans colors. I mean that'd be so damm cute guys. Think about the tail and the makeup ugh adorable.

Kings who married straight men, did you stay married?

Just curious. My husband and I have been together for about 7 years now with two little kids; I don't think he realized how gay my gay is, and I think it makes him uncomfortable. I want to get out and do more drag, but I feel like I'm being selfish because I know it makes him uncomfortable. I don't really know what to do with that other than respect his comfort zone. I just feel like I'm kind of building boards around my closet. though.

I'm torn because I'm trying to figure out how healthy the relationship is, and what kind of relationship I want to model for the kids. I also believe that when possible, it is best to have the kids growing up with their bio parents present. I love him and he loves me, I just feel like he loves me as long as I don't escape the mold that he has in mind for me. Not like in a controlling way, just in a...idk...like, he doesn't realize how much I'd like to live with a penis kind of way.

My look for a finale last night! (IG: @venom_valentine)

I debuted a new outfit that I made myself AND a new number! I performed to the song SPKOTHDVL by I Don’t Know How But They Found Me!

I didn’t place in the top 3 but that’s okay! I’m happy that I made it to the finale in the first place. I’m incredibly proud of myself and how my outfit and everything turned out! :)
