The series is ongoing and has seen success for many reasons; the difference in personality and how queens present their art is always significant to watch. Personally, season 12 was a favourite, particularly with Crystal Methyd and Gigi Goode. Both have shown how different and innovative they can be throughout the season. Many instantly adored their personalities as they show off their handmade outfits.
Gigi Goode’s style is her personality; she shows her creative background and how well she can make an outfit out of nothing. I love how well planned her costumes and outfits are. She can show off her body and curves through the different styles.
Gigi does not stick to one concept; she’s always trying new ideas and showing her multiple capabilities.
The various styles and materials, and the inspiration used, seem only to fit her vibe and character. Every drag queen has created a name for herself; they all made a character for themselves which they can use to feel safe, free, comfortable, and confident. These are my favourite outfits from season 12 of Ru Paul’s Drag Race; the materials of the outfits and the entire look is very elegant, yet it shows us the different ways she can make any outfit stand out. Gigi does not stick to one concept; she’s always trying new ideas and showing her multiple capabilities. When she uses small pompoms on her dress, the clusters makes the look more sophisticated and not lazy or rushed. She took the time to plan where everything goes, which is why I love this outfit- it's so simple yet colourful and creative.
Crystal Methyd has such a creative eye for her costumes, she never fails to impress her audience during challenges. Her fun and witty personality matches the way she presents her drag persona: ‘Crystal Methyd’.
I love how she lets her makeup and artistic ability speak for her when she’s in drag.
She surprised people, including me, during the show with the different looks she had created. It's not what one would usually see in drag and it's amazing to see how different it can be. Usually, drag is about exaggerated make-up and over the top looks and outfits, but Crystal does it in a different way. She is able to use her talents to be other characters that aren’t ‘Crystal Methyd’. Her Bert and Ernie look was very surprising and refreshing to see on the show which usually focuses on more elegant and powerful looks. I love how she lets her makeup and artistic ability speak for her when she’s in drag. It’s amazing to see the different ways drag can be applied and how other queens use it. I love Crystal Methyd’s freedom in her creative process of bringing a character to life.
