Hey, darlings! Your favourite pink tutu-clad time-travelling fashionista is back, and this month we're going on a glamorous jaunt to 2042! Buckle up, my lovelies, 'cause this one's going to be fabulous!
First things first, lemme tell you about this AMAZING new era I stumbled into! 2042? My, oh my! The worldās a glittery, colourful paradise! Imagine this: eco-friendly buildings fashioned with sustainable materials (can you even imagine the possibilities for dramatic drag backdrops?!), zero-gravity transit (finally a real-life "flying on a pink cloud" experience, yas!), and holographic displays that pop with all the fabulousness of a rainbow on acid!
Okay, back to my travelsā¦ I touched down in a dazzling cityscape - the entire place was ablaze with lights, lasers, and holographic billboards that made the Burlesque shows in 1920s New York City look like amateur hour! The sheer scope of it was like nothing Iāve ever seen.
The best part? The fashion, darling! The fashion! Forget the drab browns and blacks of 2023. 2042 is a technicolour extravaganza. Think neon hues, shimmering metallics, and designs inspired by everything from coral reefs to alien landscapes. You're talking about a whole new era of drag expression. Imagine, sequins woven into fabric that changes colours with your mood, feather boas that glow in the dark, and boots that literally propel you across the room with every kick. Oh, the opportunities for fabulousity are simply endless!
Oh, and donāt even get me started on the shoes! There are towering platforms that defy gravity and heels that sparkle brighter than a thousand disco balls. Even the men are rocking glitter and a dash of pink! Seriously, the pink trend had reached a new peak in 2042, with pink eyeshadow becoming a standard feature on menās faces ā an evolution from my beloved tutus to a bold fashion statement. This year, pink truly is the colour of acceptance!
Now, onto the heart and soul of any era ā the drag scene. Letās talk queens!
2042 is teeming with queens who push boundaries in every way. The performers I saw were incredible, not just because of their makeup, but because their style incorporated the very architecture of the cities. They looked like a cross between the drag queens of today and mythical creatures - their clothes and costumes seamlessly integrated with the glowing architecture and sky-scrapers!
I saw performances in stunning virtual theatres where you literally interacted with the queens, blurring the line between reality and the spectacle. They called it āImmersive Theatre.ā The crowd, all in their rainbow of sustainable and tech-enhanced fabrics, interacted with the queens by creating virtual effects - it was just brilliant!
However, the main attraction this month is "DRAG-VERSE!" Itās the annual multi-dimensional drag festival hosted right in the centre of this super advanced megacity! Think drag shows with hologram projections, virtual reality lip sync battles, and performances inside 3D holograms!
Of course, as the self-proclaimed āQueen of Pink Tutus,ā I knew I had to check out this epic festival. So, after my show in Derby that night (it's important to always represent where you come from, ladies!), I slipped on my magic pink tutu and whisked myself off to the bustling, vibrant scene of āDRAG-VERSE." It's so exhilarating! Imagine watching an elaborate lip-sync battle in which each performer becomes a majestic holographic phoenix or a giant glitter dragonā¦ pure artistry and pure fabulousness!
Of course, being a true drag queen, I had to grab a new, iridescent pink tutu from the sustainable and fabulous DragVerse fashion boutique ā handmade, by the way. This was an incredible display of modern artistry - think tutus of the future!
But let me tell you, darlings, the true magic wasnāt just in the performance itself but in the community. These queens are paving the way for a whole new level of artistic expression and activism. There were talks about how Drag Verse is more than just a festival; itās a global movement!
And just imagine it, babes! A drag scene where technology and inclusivity work in perfect harmony to celebrate the beauty and power of self-expression. Now thatās what I call a real transformation!
I've said it before, and Iāll say it again ā the future of drag is dazzling, inclusive, and most importantlyā¦ pink!
Now, donāt be shy, darlings! You can find me every night this month at the āDrag-tasticā in Nottingham (a wonderful cabaret with some very talented local performers ā youāll definitely have a fabulous time!). You've been there with me from the beginning of this time-traveling journey, and trust me ā it's just getting started. Thereās so much more to see and learn, so much more magic to share!

Stay fabulous and stay pink, Emma.
