We Want To Go To There]]> We can't say for sure that the Diva Entertainment Awards, held at Munich's Hotel Bayerischer Hof, actually reward fabulousness. But given the togs on display, we're going to go ahead and pretend it's the case.













The Good:
Digging Nina Eichinger's Jackie O-style sheath. And to quote our own Mac Loserboy, when I dig something it stays dug.


Nadja Uhl has the figure to work this sometimes-tricky bodice.


Obviously everything about this is completely wonderful, but I'm actually liking Sophie Wepper (mit Wilhelmine Wepper) 's Brunhilde breast-plate action!


Everyone should pose like Christine Neubauer on the red carpet, all the time.


The Bad:
Obviously in Lucia Aliberti's case, "bad" does not mean "inappropriate for a community theatre production of My Fair Lady."


The best part of Kim Heinzelmann's ostrich costume? The ruby slippers!


You gotta wonder: did Sonja Kirchberger choose this from numerous contenders and gasp, "that's it!"


The Ugly?
What's wrong with this picture?

<![CDATA[Fierce Creatures: Drag Industry Variety Awards Bring It]]> Welcome to the Drag Industry Variety Awards 2008 (that's right, the DIVAs) at Sydney's Paddington Town Hall. Othelia Sharft, Fagget Roaster, Freeda Corset, Prada Tlutch and a cast of thousands channeled all the arts of man and nature in their quest for drag fabulosity. The results? Magic. The Sublime, the Ridiculous, the Gravity-Defying - after the jump!









The Good:
White mice + fishing nets = "Do" for Courtney Act .
Mitsy Mackintosh channels Carolina Herrera, Daily Mail.
Othelia Sharft works Givenchy, Carmen Miranda, and Manga with elan.
Polly De Petrie and John Richards: Liberace, squash and regal dignity.
Blue Angel-era Marlene Dietrich crossed with the Artful Dodger is a 10 for Rhys Bobridge.


The Bad:
Veronica lake? Vinyl? Yawn, Fagget Roaster.
Frank N. Furter is a classic, but Freeda Corset's interpretation just doesn't feel fresh.
Vanity Faire's riff on Little Red Riding Hood is literal, a little '96.
Nice homage, Prada Tlutch, but 27 Dresses blew.


The Ugly:
Don't know what Maxy Shield is actually going for, but it's seriously reminding us of the Montauk Creature in a dickie.
