Fashion is drag

A KALTBLUT exclusive editorial produced with Italian drag performer Steah and Spanish drag performer Miss Yo Kim. Photography by Airam Rodríguez. Styling by Fausto Leoni. Make up and hair by Ácido. “We wanted to show that drag is not only a performance or a form of gender expression, it can be considered fashion and influence it. It can be elevated. But also, that you can approach fashion by thinking of drag, express your intentions in an exaggerated way. The relationship between fashion and drag works both ways.”

Airam Rodríguez (32, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria)
