RuPaul's Drag Race Season 6: BenDeLaCreme

Here's the sitch ya'll, I've worked with DeLa on many different projects over the years.  When I found out she was going to be on Season 6 of RuPaul's Drag Race, my reaction was "Duh, You're a genius. You'll make great TV."

BenDeLaCreme is a smart cookie.  I'm not just saying that because we're friends.  I've seen Ben the producer work 18 hours days to make sure an act is perfect, then turn it out as DeLa like she's been performing it for years.  Never boring, never expected, ALWAYS entertaining.

So naturally being 4 episodes in to Season 6, the judges are taking a liking.  I'm proud to see my friend doing so well, and even more thrilled to see her turning out so many of the looks we designed for her.
Enjoy the gallery, and see you on Monday.

The end of June always marks the week of Seattle's PRIDE festivities.  We know a few things about what's going to happen: 
A).  It'll be warm enough to wear those skimpy clothes outdoors (YEY!)
B).  There will be enough rainbow flag swag to make Lisa Frank want to barf.
C).  NARK Magazine will be throwing the best parties in town!

People Magazine and Entertainment Weekly

Oh how thrilling!
Jinkx Monsoon was photographed at the NYC crowning party in my J'Adore dress, and it was featured on Elle.com, People Magazine online, and Entertainment Weekly online (with a nice mention of my company.)
Thanks Jinkx, as always you're the People's Queen, and you do right by all of us who've helped you along the way.  I love you for that.

Jinkx Monsoon at the NewNowNext Awards

Logo held the NewNowNext Awards over the weekend, and I was thrilled to dress Drag Race contestant Jinkx Monsoon!
When she texted me on Monday about attending the Awards show, I just knew I had to whip her up a fun frock for the party.  For her, anything!

Serving Emerald City Mermaid realness!
