Pink Tutu Travels: March 2015 - A Ballet-ific Blast from the Past!

Hello, darling darlings! Emma here, your pink-tutu-clad time travelling correspondent, back for another fabulous blast from the past! Today, we're waltzing our way back to March 2015, where the drag scene was bursting with fabulousness, and oh darling, what a time it was!

Now, I'm sure you're all eager to hear about the latest happenings in the world of drag, so let's get this show on the road!

March 2015: A Global Glitterstorm

First things first, my darlings, March 2015 was the month where RuPaul's Drag Race was at the height of its glory with Season 7 heating up!

Think Violet Chachki, Ginger Minj, and Katya dazzling on screen, showcasing their iconic drag and witty charm! It was the era of quirky queens, avant-garde fashion, and unapologetic sass, and frankly, it doesn't get much more spectacular than that!

But my dears, this was no mere US phenomenon! Across the pond, in our own little corner of the world, RuPaul's Drag Race UK was already in its conception stage! Just imagine: The future of British drag was being meticulously stitched and glued together in some dimly-lit London studio! Now, we know what happened โ€“ we saw it all go down on our screens just a few years later โ€“ and what an absolutely fabulous spectacle it was. But in March 2015, the world was oblivious, eagerly anticipating Season 7's twists and turns, completely unaware of the glorious future of British Drag that lay just a few years ahead.

Oh, the joys of a time traveller's life, wouldn't you say, darlings?

Meanwhile, on the bustling streets of London, drag wasn't merely a televised spectacle, it was a vibrant, living, breathing art form!

The legendary The Glory was a haven for drag queens, boasting an eclectic line-up every night. Drag superstars like Blu Hydrangea, Divina De Campo and Bimini Bon Boulash were still in their "baby drag" days, strutting their stuff at underground events. These future Drag Race stars were soaking up the experience, sharpening their skills, and preparing to dominate the world stage in just a few short years!

You see, my darlings, history is just brimming with fabulous tales like this. It's what makes being a pink-tutu-wearing time traveller so darn thrilling. We can hop through time and witness those pivotal moments that shape the ever-evolving landscape of drag, right down to the glitter on the floor.

A Time Travelling Tour de Force

Now, let's dive into my very own adventures in March 2015! This month, I hopped on my magical time-travelling pink tutu, and found myself soaring across the Atlantic to the heart of New York City. It was a trip truly worthy of a thousand photos!

Just imagine the sheer spectacle, darling! New York City, the iconic centre of drag, in 2015. My pink tutu caused quite a stir, as you can imagine! Passersby were enchanted by my flowing pink feathers, mesmerized by the magic that only a pink-tutu-clad time traveler can bring!

Drag Culture on Display

Speaking of magical experiences, I attended the most fantastic Drag Queen's ball at the iconic Metropolitan Pavilion in New York! The music, the costumes, the performances - my darlings, it was a veritable drag utopia!

And I mustn't forget my excursion to The Stonewall Inn - a legendary landmark that symbolizes the incredible history of the LGBTQ+ movement. Standing in that place, feeling the spirit of resistance and activism, made my heart soar.

The world was already moving towards more LGBTQ+ inclusion and acceptance in 2015, and it was truly inspirational to be a part of that journey. As a time traveler, I had the opportunity to observe and experience the impact of this movement firsthand.

I spent hours strolling down Christopher Street, the centre of gay culture in New York, soaking up the vibrant atmosphere, admiring the eye-catching storefronts, and absorbing the joyful energy that pulsed through every corner of this magical place.

From catching the iconic Wigs and Lashes Drag Show at The Eagle bar to sipping cocktails in a glamorous New York drag club, the energy was electric, and my tutu twirled in perfect harmony with it all!

Fashion Finds in New York

And oh, my darlings, I can't resist a good shopping spree! My journey wouldn't be complete without some dazzling new additions to my pink-tutu wardrobe.

From vintage shops to designer boutiques, the city pulsated with style, ready to add some glamour to my time travelling shenanigans. I fell head-over-heels for a delicate beaded clutch from a hidden boutique on 5th Avenue. Oh, it sparkled and shimmered like the stars, darling, making every outfit feel absolutely fabulous.

Remember, my dear darlings, fashion is not merely about clothing, it's an art form. It's about embracing self-expression and turning heads with confidence!

It's the bold statements, the sassy silhouettes, the vibrant colors - all working together to tell a story, a story about confidence, joy, and pure unapologetic drag fabulousness!

A Time to Celebrate Drag

As I look back on this unforgettable trip, I realize March 2015 was more than just a month; it was a powerful moment in the timeline of drag! It was a time where the scene was bubbling with creativity, passion, and a vibrant sense of community.

So, my darlings, next time you're putting on your own fabulous drag outfits, remember the glorious past! Remember the incredible history, the pioneering queens who paved the way, the relentless drive to express yourself, and the sheer joy of drag that continues to blossom throughout time.

Oh, and don't forget: The world needs more pink tutus! It's a simple mission, my darlings, but a fabulous one, and it starts with you.

See you all next month, darlings, for another exciting adventure through time. Until then, keep twirling and keep dazzling!

*Yours always in pink, *

Emma
