Can I get some commotion for the outfit? ✨

So happy with how this Tiresias look came together.Tiresias is one of the OG genderbenders from Greek mythology.

“I myself am strange and unusual.”

Here’s the outfit I wore to the @berniesbarnewcastle Halloween party last night. The dress was originally thrifted, customised and worn by my drag mother Fatima Bush a few years ago.

Another fab routine by @abbypolefairy to finish off Term 3 back in June. My leg flexibility is improving - check out the (fake) split at the end! 😱

Orlando can be seen from the thighs up in full drag posing for the photo. Looking like an 80s glam rocker with smoky purple eyeshadow and a fabulous moustache, he’s wearing a curly shoulder-length wig, customised denim jacket with many sparkly embellishments and appliqués in soft blue, pink and silver tones, and even a hint of pastel green. Underneath the jacket is a black mesh skintight shirt, and below that, black velvet chaps and a black jockstrap and thong. His hands are placed stylishly on his hips, subtly drawing further attention to his sizeable package.

The first photo shows Orlando Gloom and Pole Dance Dave posing together and smiling at the camera. Orlando is a gothic individual in drag makeup with green eyeshadow, a pinky purple wig, skeleton bodysuit and black leather jacket. He appears so vampirically pale in the photo he almost looks like he’s glowing…or a ghost…or both. Meanwhile Dave sports a much healthier complexion and is wearing a top with the words ‘Dump Him’ written in large yellow letters on the front. The second photo is in black and white, showing a section of the crowd watching a performance on the stage which is out of shot. Orlando can be seen in the foreground in the left corner, smiling and enjoying the performance.

Part 2 - Keeping track of the changes to my singing voice since starting on testosterone over a year ago. My voice won’t fully settle until at least 2 years on T. Patience + self-compassion are key. And the euphoria from reaching those lower notes is amazing 😊
