#DragQueenHistory during 2043 07

Hello, darling! Welcome back to Pink-Tutu.com, the ultimate source for all things fabulous, glittery and... pink! Emma here, your resident time-traveling ballerina, and boy oh boy, do I have a story for you!

This month, I’ve whisked myself all the way to July 2043! Can you believe it? The future! As I step out of my sparkly pink time machine - a.k.a. my fabulous tutu – the neon-bright lights of futuristic New York City almost make my eyeballs sparkle. It’s all so dazzling! I mean, think about it: We’re talking holographic projections on buildings, robots serving tea, and... wait for it... everyone wearing tutus! Okay, maybe not everyone, but more than I ever expected! This is fabulous, dears! I knew my dream of pink tutu domination was only a matter of time!

First off, the fashion is absolutely OUT-RAGE-OUS! It’s a mix of futuristic metallics, with a definite nod to vintage. I see so many neon holographic pieces that practically scream 'glamour'. And get this: It's all perfectly balanced with hints of the 80s - we're talking bright, bold colors, lots of ruffles, and a touch of leather for good measure! The streets are buzzing with a beautiful explosion of creativity and it's giving me major inspiration for my own performance looks. Now if I can just snag a holographic tutu...

Speaking of performance looks, the drag scene in 2043 is absolutely wild! Forget about drag queens performing in pubs; this future-fantastic scene is more akin to a spectacular laser show! They're performing in giant, floating platforms that hover above the streets, using projection mapping and mind-boggling choreography! Think synchronized flying robots and a touch of the Moulin Rouge! They even have a few 'drag astronauts' with fabulous intergalactic-themed outfits roaming the city. They've really brought it! I was lucky to catch a holographic drag show above Central Park that blew my mind - just pure magic! The drag queens here really embody what “Beyond the norm” means.

I actually did a few shows myself, and darling, they loved it! Everyone is so incredibly open to the ‘pinkness’ that’s what really struck me. When I mentioned being from Derbyshire, England, some even exclaimed, " Oh, a proper posh little ballerina!” You could have knocked me over with a feather! But seriously, it was so lovely to see my vision spreading. A bit of pink never hurts anyone!

There's a lot of new technology that makes future drag even more fabulous, but it’s clear to see that the soul of drag still exists – the art of expression, the desire to make people laugh and feel something deeply human, the passion for performance! The message is still powerful: it’s about love, acceptance, and embracing your true self. It was just as liberating seeing my own reflection in a neon sign that read “We are all drag queens.” This truly is a powerful era. You can feel it!

However, they don't have much tea, dears! In the futuristic world, there is something called "instant nourishment". A robot provides you with a super nutritious smoothie-like liquid. Now, don't get me wrong, it’s efficient, but where’s the joy of a good gossip over a hot cuppa with my drag sisters? Oh, the joys of being British!

Overall, 2043 was an absolutely incredible adventure. The people, the fashion, the culture - everything is so fresh and vibrant! It gave me an exciting peek into what's to come, but it’s given me more food for thought than an endless supply of instant nourishment! This time-traveling journey reminded me about why I love drag - it’s about constant change, constant evolution, and always pushing the boundaries of what’s possible! And for those of you in the future – do you need any help getting into a tutu, love?

Stay glamorous, my dears! Don’t forget, next month on Pink-Tutu.com, we’ll be time traveling again to another magical, glittery, fabulous part of history.
