Happy Birthday RuPaul!

“We are all born naked, the rest is drag.”

Happy birthday to multiple Emmy winner, drag performer, singer, actor, producer, model, entrepreneur, author, and cultural icon RuPaul!

This week we pay tribute to RuPaul’s many iconic looks in—or out—of drag. Sashay down the runway in form-fitting body and catsuits. Be a Supermodel in gowns and evening dresses galore—especially glittered, sequined and bejeweled textiles. You better work those slim-fit suits à la Ru in bright colors and prints. Shante you stay in evening length gloves, sky high stiletto heels and platforms. All tea all shades in your most gag-worthy glasses and sunglasses. “Everybody say love, can I get an Amen!”
