I have found this series "Half Drag... A Different Kind Of Beauty" by Leland Bobbe extremely interesting and actually quite comical. These fabulous drag queens have aloud to show themselves as males and there female alter egos in the same unstitched picture. I think the style of these images is beautiful and tastefully controlled but what i find quite amusing about these photographs is that the female side of there persona's are actually the same as what most women look like when glammed up. Its almost as if the women's 21st century beauty routine is inspired by drag . Excessive make up , fake fair, extravagant jewellery nails ect.
Underneath The Half drag image by Leland bobbe i have placed an images of Geordie shores holly to look at the resemblance in styles. Geordie shore is a massive hit reality show in which are influencing a large population of its watchers. I just wanted to show the comical similarities of this young Drag male and young female. I think this is first time in fashion history where the majority are using Drag as inspiration possibly without even being aware of it .
