00:00I mean, come on!
00:03I'm serving a hand-painted stone dress.
00:07Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks
00:11for the most glamorous and creative looks
00:13to hit the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
00:16Beware of spoilers.
00:17Is inspired by my mom.
00:20Exactly 50 years ago, it was her senior prom.
00:26Number 30, Blair St. Clair's finale ensemble,
00:30All Stars Season 5.
00:32Usually, the top queens get the most attention
00:34when it comes to finale looks,
00:36but sometimes an eliminated contestant
00:38ends up stealing the spotlight.
00:40Blair St. Clair had done well
00:42during the fifth installment of All Stars
00:44and had already shown an elevated taste level.
00:47However, this final display made people realize
00:50how far she'd come.
00:52I do declare, it's Blair St. Clair.
00:56Alexander, my drag queen.
01:00I came with my own crown made of hair.
01:02She arrived in a fully crystallized piece
01:05with a flowy, baby pink overlay,
01:07taking the outfit from a mere bodysuit
01:10to an elegant, jaw-dropping piece.
01:12The platinum blonde wig braided into a makeshift crown
01:16was the cherry on top.
01:17It was the perfect way to cap off the season,
01:20leaving the audience with one final reminder
01:22of how sickening she is.
01:24Number 29, Suga Cain's sequins on the runway.
01:28Season 11.
01:29Who doesn't love a good sequined gown?
01:32Put on a shiny sequined gown.
01:35Are you saying sequin or?
01:37Sequined dress.
01:38For this category, the contestants were tasked
01:41with wearing their best sequined garb.
01:43There were several pretty looks,
01:45but none matched up to Suga Cain's.
01:47This is what we call a flamenque ho.
01:50Oh, okay.
01:51Ho-lay.
01:52I just feel gorgeous.
01:54She was decked out in a stunning royal purple garment,
01:58and she effortlessly commanded attention
02:00as she strolled down the stage.
02:02She took her time showcasing the number,
02:04which makes sense considering the bling
02:06weighed it down a considerable amount.
02:09I can barely walk in the bitch,
02:10but I will be taking a flow strut on the runway.
02:14I love this dress so much.
02:16The sequins caught the lights perfectly,
02:18creating a truly gorgeous sight.
02:21The long flowing sleeves added the perfect touch,
02:24matching the bottom and bringing an element of luxury.
02:27In one of my favorite dresses
02:29to ever walk down this runway.
02:31Thank you.
02:32That eggplant color is just gorgeous on you.
02:35Suga may not have won the challenge that week,
02:38but she stole many hearts with this look.
02:40Number 28, Simone's Train for Days, season 13.
02:45Some competitors show up,
02:47and you can instantly tell they'll be serving
02:49the entire time they're there.
02:51Simone's ideas, whether comedic or serious,
02:54were always well thought out
02:56and planned with plenty of care.
02:58Her somber, breathtaking, fascinator look
03:00paid tribute to victims of police brutality.
03:03It's not a moment, it is a movement.
03:06We need to continue to say their names.
03:08Breonna Taylor, George Floyd,
03:11Brayla Stone, Trayvon Martin,
03:13Tony McDade, Nina Pope, Monica Diamond.
03:17However, her Trains for Days runway
03:20is the one that many often remember first.
03:22Rather than go the traditional route,
03:24she incorporated her culture
03:26by having her train come from a do-rag.
03:29Oh, yes, she better do rags.
03:31Ha ha ha!
03:31Ha ha ha!
03:32Ha ha ha!
03:33Ha ha ha!
03:34Ha ha ha!
03:35The striking colors made it impossible to look away,
03:38creating something that was visually stunning
03:40and had an important message behind it.
03:43With moments like this,
03:44it's no wonder Simone's career post-drag race
03:47has been filled with nothing but success.
03:49Number 27, Gottmik's Little Black Dress, Season 13.
03:55Simone wasn't the only Season 13 queen
03:57who knew how to turn a look.
03:59Indeed, Gottmik had fun and edgy moments in her repertoire
04:03that pushed the boundaries of the prompts.
04:05This look is a very classic silhouette,
04:07but with a Gottmik twist.
04:09Her contemporary bag ball design
04:11was proof that a garment
04:13didn't have to be over the top to slay.
04:15However, her little black dress runway
04:17is the one that best showcased her style and personality.
04:21I was just, couldn't believe that I was this comfortable
04:24with my body to strut down the main stage like that.
04:26Most of her opponents opted for classic renditions
04:29of the theme,
04:30but she went in a completely different direction.
04:32Yeah, I used to go to that dry cleaner, but no more.
04:35She strutted her stuff practically nude
04:38with mainly a tiny black dress covering her.
04:41It was daring and funny all at once
04:43and made fellow contestants realize
04:45she was one to watch out for.
04:47Couldn't be happier with how I look right now.
04:50Number 26, Sasha Velour's passing the crown look.
04:54Season 10.
04:55We love when returning champs
04:57serve earth shattering ensembles.
04:59Sasha Velour is a great example
05:01of why it's so thrilling to see.
05:03Throughout her time on the show and during her reign,
05:06she proved that she had strong ideas
05:09and a secure artistic vision.
05:11Those qualities more than came through
05:13during her appearance at Aquarius Crowning.
05:16You are number 26, baby.
05:17You are number 26, baby.
05:21Sasha wore a gorgeous, intricate number
05:23designed to make her look like a fabulous
05:25and ethereal alien.
05:27She also incorporated biblical references,
05:30displaying a wide array of inspirations.
05:32It was a testament to her creativity and mind,
05:35demonstrating exactly why she deserved her initial win
05:39in the first place.
05:40Absolutely out of this world amazing
05:42in all seriousness, I've been able to travel
05:45and meet queer people all around the world
05:47inspired by this show to keep fighting and thriving.
05:51It's inspirational.
05:52Number 25, Jada Essence Hall's purple look.
05:56Season 12.
05:57When it comes to memorable outfits,
05:59pageant queens are sometimes overlooked
06:01in favor of more alternative ones,
06:03but that was not the case here.
06:05♪ Say 2000 party overloops out of time ♪
06:10Jada Essence Hall was unapologetic in her aesthetic
06:13and often proved how beautiful it could be through fashion.
06:17Her purple frock was the ultimate sign of that
06:19as she took the stage in an elegant, jaw-dropping dress
06:23complete with a perfectly placed headpiece.
06:26I feel my fantasy, because I have this beautiful hat,
06:29is blocking my light,
06:31because I don't want everybody to see all of this face.
06:33The body and this garment are doing all the work.
06:36It may have been simpler compared to other presentations,
06:39but the execution radiated beauty and sheer grace.
06:43I love having money, I love feeling like money,
06:46and this look just drips money.
06:48She later showed her versatility during the finale
06:50when she served up a galaxy-inspired costume
06:53that practically guaranteed her the crown.
06:56Number 24, Nymphia Wynn's
06:58Call Me Mother Slash Father Eleganza Ensemble.
07:02Season 16.
07:03It may be recent, but this creation
07:05has already cemented itself
07:07as one of the best in the franchise.
07:09For this look, the queens were tasked
07:11with constructing attire using menswear.
07:13Nymphia Wynn blew her competition away
07:16as soon as she turned the corner.
07:17Wow.
07:18Oh my gosh.
07:20Nymphia can't come to the phone,
07:22she's a little tied up right now.
07:24She'd taken several neckties and incorporated them,
07:28even managing to make some of them appear
07:30to take on new shapes.
07:31It was edgy and modern and masterfully crafted to boot.
07:35This is just, I mean, otherworldly.
07:39The crown and glory are all these silk ties
07:41that you've made three-dimensional,
07:43like they're blowing in the wind.
07:44It was the ideal blend of masculine and feminine,
07:47easily securing her the win that week.
07:49Everything from the high-low skirt
07:51to the signature yellow boots was perfect,
07:53creating an ensemble that could be worn on the show
07:56or at Fashion Week.
07:57Number 23, Naomi Small's All-Star Extravaganza Look.
08:02All-Stars Season 4.
08:04Finales give the contestants an excuse to go all out.
08:07This is Naomi Smalls at her highest form.
08:10I am shining from head to toe.
08:14I am looking rich, bitch.
08:16I am looking opulent.
08:18I own everything.
08:21Many save their best showings for the occasion
08:23and use it as a chance to exhibit their growth
08:26to the audience.
08:27While there have been plenty of incredible final looks,
08:29one of the most gorgeous belongs to Naomi Smalls.
08:32We knew you could turn the fashion look in your season,
08:35but you have really, really elevated,
08:38and it's absolutely stunning.
08:40For the occasion on All-Stars 4,
08:42she stunned in a magnetic purple creation.
08:45The added details, such as the hat,
08:47puffed sleeves, and tear-away skirt,
08:50brought together elements of style and camp perfectly.
08:53It was drag at its very best, and it was a sight to behold.
08:57It looked so great.
08:58It's a Galeano reference-ish,
09:02but Naomi Smalls-ified with a skirt reveal.
09:04Although Naomi got the chop before the end,
09:06this outfit confirmed why she made it as far as she did.
09:10This look is everything.
09:11It's so fun.
09:12When you came out, I was, like, audibly gasping.
09:14Number 22, Utica Queen's Bag Ball Extravaganza Outfit.
09:19Season 13.
09:21The design challenges have brought forth
09:23some instantly recognizable moments, both good and bad.
09:26Some are so breathtaking that it's hard to believe
09:29they were made in the workroom.
09:30To me, she's a masterpiece.
09:33I love her so much.
09:35I just, I can't believe I made that on the show.
09:37Take Utica Queen's Sleeping Bag Eleganza showing.
09:41It quickly became one of the most well-crafted pieces
09:44in the show's herstory.
09:45She was able to take something
09:46with a less conventional material and texture
09:49and turn it into a hooded dress,
09:51complete with an extravagant train.
09:53Sleeping bags are not an easy medium to work with,
09:57and you've made it look flattering.
09:59The cowl neck with the zipper,
10:02it's just all so enticing.
10:03It was pure skill on display,
10:05and it immediately helped her secure a reputation
10:08as a gifted seamstress.
10:10Although Utica wasn't the bag ball challenge's
10:12ultimate victor, this piece became an instant fan favorite,
10:16helping her succeed in the longterm.
10:18I am so campy.
10:20I am walking down the runway in this sleeping bag couture
10:24and serving this ethereal starlet.
10:27I got these puffy sleeves, a fitted waist.
10:29Number 21.
10:31Manila Luzon's Silver Elegance After Dark Dress.
10:34All-Stars Season Four.
10:36By All-Stars Season Four,
10:38we knew Manila Luzon had the goods.
10:40How you do drag, girl?
10:43Yet somehow she was able to step it up once more,
10:46cementing how undeniably talented she is.
10:49Manila Luzon came to this season
10:51armed with some of the most memorable outfits yet.
10:54Her not-safe-for-work boots look
10:56and adorable spaghetti dress were both iconic
10:59with their out-there concepts.
11:01However, her most revered ensemble
11:03has to be the silver gown featured in the second episode.
11:06That, get up.
11:08Get into the armpits.
11:10Did you stone those armpits?
11:12It was opulent to a T, with complex embellishments
11:15that allowed her to stun from head to toe.
11:18It was pure, unadulterated glamor, leaving everyone shook.
11:22Needless to say, Manila was and remains
11:25a force to be reckoned with.
11:27I love evening gowns.
11:29And when you put on a gown that fits you so right
11:33and makes you look so beautiful,
11:35you feel so right and you feel so beautiful,
11:38like you're a princess in a movie.
11:39Number 20, Crystal Method's blue meanie genie, season 12.
11:44It's like Gloria Swanson in a Smurf had a baby.
11:47For an eleganza challenge late in her season,
11:50Crystal pulled out a wildly eccentric look.
11:53Rather than traditional glam,
11:54this all-blue outfit sported plenty
11:56of yellow submarine blue meanie realness.
11:59The puffy pants gave a unique oversized feel,
12:02while also leaving an Aladdin genie smoke trail illusion.
12:06Method's choice for a deflated arm
12:08also provided a fun bit of asymmetry to the outfit.
12:11The suit traded out a form-fitting design
12:13to highlight a more conceptual piece.
12:15My eleganza extravaganza look is futuristic.
12:20I feel like a space princess.
12:22Method's look easily won over judges and fans alike
12:25by embracing bizarre aesthetics and color.
12:27Number 19, Valentina's Madonna, season nine.
12:31Valentina.
12:32Oh.
12:34You know, I hate censorship.
12:35Me too.
12:36In a night of Madonna-inspired looks
12:38filled with endless fabric,
12:40Valentina stood out by going nude instead.
12:43Covered simply in mock censor bars,
12:45Valentina showed off her body with no reservations
12:48in honor of a Madonna photo series.
12:51Valentina highlighted just how stunning her body
12:53could be without clothing,
12:55and cheekily left her butt uncovered.
12:57With everything on display,
12:59Valentina's confidence ultimately sold us on her choice.
13:02Plus, her casual twirling of a cigarette
13:04emphasized her laissez-faire energy.
13:06While she actually won for her excessive fabric
13:09in a bridal gown, this all-skin runway impressed us more.
13:12And really, only Valentina could've pulled off
13:15a naked look with this kind of effortless appeal.
13:17Number 18, Brooklyn Heitz's two-in-one look, season 11.
13:23Brooklyn Heitz.
13:24All right, pam-queer.
13:25Brooklyn had plenty of strong outfits in season 11,
13:28and her best offered us double trouble.
13:31She started with a stunning 1970s disco look,
13:34complete with a booming afro
13:36and sequins for that week's theme.
13:38Heitz suavely whipped off her hair and gown
13:40into a very suggestive pink and black set of lingerie.
13:43Her luscious blonde hair popped out
13:45with a smooth grace to accent the moment.
13:48The swap played out like seamless magic,
13:50with both styles feeling distinct
13:52yet united by their colors.
13:54While Heitz's reinvention of latex pieces from Detox
13:57was an impressive sign of things to come,
13:59this was the full culmination of her talents.
14:02Heitz nailed her presentation best of all,
14:04if the judges' reactions were any indication.
14:07Oh!
14:08Whoa!
14:09Oh my God!
14:11Are you kidding me?
14:12Number 17, April Carillon's April showers.
14:17Season six.
14:18April showers.
14:19Yes.
14:20That just got me all wet.
14:23April Carillon didn't make it far in drag race,
14:25so you may have forgotten just how dazzling her fashion was.
14:29Carillon's raincoat-inspired gown
14:31blended bright yellows and blues
14:33for a sharp neon that popped.
14:34The forecast is gorgeous.
14:37Make it rain, girl, make it rain.
14:40Along with her floor-length skirt,
14:42the seductive top showed more skin than fabric.
14:45Carillon's umbrella tied the whole look together,
14:47especially with the dangling rain details
14:49to reinforce the theme.
14:51Her strip down in the lip sync that week
14:53also displayed how the outfit could adapt to her wardrobe.
14:56Make a scene, make a scene, nobody can ignore.
15:00Given how well this frock worked as a chic piece
15:03and a play on real raincoats,
15:05Carillon was sickening in the rain.
15:07Number 16, Cameron Michaels' feathers.
15:10Season 10.
15:11Cameron Michaels, something's sick at This Way Cubs.
15:14With feathers as the runway choice of the week,
15:18we saw birds in kooky dresses,
15:20while Cameron Michaels aimed to be their queen.
15:23I am giving you my best evil queen here to rule the world.
15:26Her black costume kept it risque with a nude bodysuit,
15:30which offered lots of body-ody-ody.
15:32Michaels was decked in decadent wings
15:34that actually appeared to flap as she moved them.
15:37She brought a sense of regal beauty
15:39with her crown and jewels,
15:40along with the gold detailing on her shoulder pads.
15:43Plus, her horns and angular makeup
15:45gave the design a sinister quality.
15:47She is really talented.
15:51Michaels' beastly and commanding chic
15:53was worthy of Maleficent herself.
15:55Number 15, Katya's pants on the runway.
15:58All-Stars season two.
16:00Katya, the Russians are taking over the runway.
16:04Katya upped her competition edge
16:05in her All-Stars appearance,
16:07which included atypical fashion choices,
16:09even for a pants challenge.
16:11Her pants and sweater combo had a strong motherly look
16:15with a dash of, as Katya put it,
16:17I'm giving you 1980s lesbian literary agent,
16:20disinterested, pissed-off Ellen Barkin fantasy.
16:24The reddish-brown coloring and tracksuit appearance
16:27also played up her Russian imagery
16:28with both style and humor.
16:30The sleek stripes matched the blonde hair
16:33exuded a strong sense of power,
16:35much like the Ellen Barkin style she cited.
16:38Katya's choice to hit the runway in sweats
16:40was bold enough in and of itself.
16:42Next to many other looks that week
16:44that simply included pants,
16:46Katya showed off a total outfit built around her bottoms.
16:49To androgyny and beyond.
16:51Number 14, Evie Odley's mirrored headpiece, season 11.
16:56And Evie Odley!
17:00For her last shot at the crown,
17:02Evie Odley hit the stage in a gown
17:04and headpiece fit for a queen.
17:06The brown and gold were a strong combination
17:08and cemented the outfit's royal qualities.
17:11The floral appearance of her crown
17:12included brilliant mirrors
17:14to create a stunning multi-headed illusion.
17:17With Odley's dancing,
17:18the look already gave off a deity-like quality,
17:21so the infinite line of faces enhanced it all the more.
17:28Evie topped this with a bedazzled fake face behind her,
17:31delivered as a satisfying reveal
17:33in the climax of her Lady Gaga lip sync.
17:37And now for number 13, Naomi Smalls.
17:48Sasha Veloura's destructible helmet
17:50in the season nine finale was exciting to see,
17:52though Odley's provided more versatile details.
17:55This avant-garde choice pushed Odley's drag
17:58beyond the edge of glory to victory.
18:01Number 13, Naomi Smalls, Wizard of Oz, season eight.
18:06Naomi Smalls was the first of the cast
18:08of Spicing Up a Scarecrow for a Wizard of Oz runway.
18:11Smalls used her earth tones as a base
18:13to let every splash of color feel exceptionally pronounced.
18:17She played on the tattered appearance of a scarecrow
18:19to show off more skin in her midriff.
18:22The patchwork of her skirt turned rags
18:24into a surprisingly preppy piece
18:26that still fit her character's theme.
18:28I'm trying to give the judges a different side of Naomi.
18:31Vivian Westwood meets Scarecrow meets Vidal Sassoon,
18:35Smalls' straps served double duty as fun accessories
18:38while appearing to hold the bottoms onto her.
18:41All the little straw bracelets
18:42showed a level of inventiveness.
18:44With overflowing straw on both her and partner,
18:47Jasmine Arteaga-Sorge, Naomi found endless ways
18:51to explore scarecrow fashion.
18:53We're all eating crow now.
18:54We are.
18:55Number 12, Jinx Monsoon's Day of the Dead, season five.
19:00Jinx Monsoon.
19:03Drag of the dead.
19:04To follow up a telenovela challenge,
19:06Jinx Monsoon took a Latin theme in a more festive direction.
19:10As a play on Mexico's Day of the Dead,
19:12Monsoon topped her outfit with macabre skeleton makeup.
19:16She also incorporated a Spanish dancer look
19:19with a bouncy black and red skirt and a flowing top.
19:22Looking spooky and sexy all at the same time.
19:26Monsoon's striped tights upped the Tim Burton-esque
19:28aesthetics and tied into the color scheme.
19:31The concept landed on the line between a night out
19:34and a funeral and stood out more because of it.
19:37Monsoon used a holiday to tackle the theme
19:39in a totally unique way to show early on
19:42that she was a winner.
19:43Number 11, Sharon Needles' Zombie Glam, season four.
19:47All right for Sharon Needles.
19:49In her first runway ever, Sharon Needles established
19:52her scary movie drag with glorious excess.
19:55Rather than simply tattering her clothes for the apocalypse,
19:58Needles went for a damaged zombie design.
20:01Oh, she's bleeding.
20:03Oh my goodness.
20:05Somebody call a dentist.
20:07The intentionally ugly painting on her face
20:09embraced more eccentric drag
20:11and resembled morbid movie makeup.
20:14The torn dress and recycled shoulder pads
20:16all used strategically damaged tweaks
20:19to up her seductive charm.
20:21Needles' blood spitting was a wondrously dark addition,
20:24which proved she could make the darkest
20:26subject matter look good.
20:27Coming down the runway, the best part was slowly letting out
20:31a giant mouth full of fake blood all over my body.
20:34Her radiated take on a very disco inspired look
20:37was an enchanting way to start her drag race career.
20:40Gingivitis never looked so good.
20:42Number 10, Gigi Goode's Black Wedding, season 12.
20:46Gigi Goode.
20:48Oh my God.
20:49So pretty.
20:49So gorgeous.
20:50Next look.
20:51After so many great looks,
20:52courtesy of Gigi Goode's designer mom,
20:54she made a huge splash with a simple
20:56Christian Dior inspired black dress.
20:59The frock was understated with a very narrow top
21:02that gloriously bloomed out in its bottom half
21:05for a mix of business and party glam.
21:07My silhouette is inspired by the classic
21:10Christian Dior new look.
21:12I'm cinched in at the waist
21:14and then just jutting out at the hips.
21:16Goode's figure was complimented and then some
21:18by the brilliant silhouette here
21:20that instantly sold us on the outfit.
21:23Her blonde wig provided a wonderful contrast
21:25to the dark tones and allowed her to look like a movie star
21:28next to the other queens.
21:30She loves some black tulle, but who doesn't?
21:34Plus the red soles on Goode's shoes
21:36gave another splash of color that her competitors lacked.
21:39Number nine, Shea Couleé's Love the Skin You're In,
21:42All Stars season five.
21:44Shea Couleé.
21:44She's the one.
21:48Shea Couleé got bold and weird on the runway
21:50during her All Stars run,
21:52which meant she took a skin challenge
21:53in the most direct way possible.
21:55Her figure was out for all to see in this challenge
21:58and she let it show in her strut down the stage.
22:01While she feigned being fully naked,
22:03Couleé emanated elegance with the jewel detailing
22:06on this bodysuit.
22:08Oh yes, mama, I'm serving up
22:10some Nubian goddess realness.
22:13All the golden accessories provided an extra feeling
22:15of decadence as she stood like a ruler above the judges.
22:19As the one literal interpretation of the theme,
22:22Couleé won by displaying self-love
22:24and a blend of homages.
22:26Mama just stepped out of the Nile River,
22:28drip, drip, dripping in Swarovski stones.
22:31Number eight, Kim Chi's Black Horns Eleganza, season eight.
22:36Okay, are you ready for Kim Chi?
22:38I'm hungry.
22:38Magnificent Maleficent.
22:40Kim Chi had some of the quirkiest designs of season eight,
22:44which often pulled from her love of pop culture.
22:46For her best drag, Kim Chi tied her nerdier inspirations
22:50into a truly stylish black dress
22:52to elevate it into something surreal.
22:54And I'm feeling like a dark evil princess
22:56who came here to destroy my competition.
22:59The popping feathers in the corset
23:00brought an animalistic aesthetic and some extra flair
23:03given how far her pheasant feathers stuck out.
23:06Chi's mask mixed art pop with Disney villain realness,
23:10while her horns added to the beastly appearance.
23:12Her finale look was a very beautiful take
23:14on a fairy godmother, but she was much more ambitious here.
23:18Kim Chi exemplified growth through this outfit
23:20and showcased all the traits she was already celebrated for
23:24at the same time.
23:25Number seven, Raja's Marie Antoinette, season three.
23:29She's considered to be among the biggest fashion icons
23:32of the series, and for good reason.
23:34Oh!
23:36It's fashion week.
23:37Yes, it is.
23:38Oh, yes.
23:39I'm really, really inspired by things
23:41where Coco and Marie Antoinette.
23:43Everything Raja touches turns to gold
23:46as she showed every time she competed.
23:48While she has plenty of moments to choose from,
23:51the one that's had the biggest impact on the fandom
23:53is her Marie Antoinette-inspired moment.
23:56Complete with a whitened face, powdered wig,
23:58and elaborate corset, she left us speechless.
24:02She presented it with her usual effortless cool,
24:04elevating it further.
24:06It was a truly groundbreaking moment
24:08that's still referenced today.
24:10While others have given their interpretations
24:12of the French royal, Raja's take remains legendary.
24:15You know, I've said it before.
24:17I think if you're gonna be in this competition,
24:18you've gotta be able to hold your own, and I don't.
24:20Number six, Courtney Act's wings, season six.
24:24Next up, Courtney Act.
24:26Oh.
24:27Oh my goodness, heaven must be missing an angel.
24:30The category was animals, and Courtney Act
24:33found a way to focus on that and her body all at once.
24:36Her base outfit was very much a Lady Gaga
24:38meets Victoria's Secret catwalk,
24:40and then came her big moment.
24:43I'm giving some regal eagle.
24:45The massive wings swung out majestically
24:47and enhanced the strength she had already exuded
24:50in her pose.
24:52Act's wings looked and moved with beauty
24:54and allowed her getup to be angelic
24:56and bird-like all in one.
24:58Though her Klaus Nomi homage on the black and white runway
25:01was surprisingly arthouse,
25:03her wings just gave her the wow factor.
25:05I wanna see this on blogs.
25:07I wanna see this on Facebook.
25:09With that jaw-dropping reveal,
25:11Act secured her most iconic moment in drag race herstory.
25:15Number five, Detox's latex eleganza,
25:18all-stars season two.
25:20Detox.
25:21Yes, mama.
25:23Raccoon eleganza.
25:25Now that is a thigh gap, Beyonce.
25:28A latex theme for Detox sounded like a recipe
25:30for just showing off her body,
25:32but that wasn't all she had up her sleeve.
25:34Her monochrome grayscale finale look
25:36already hinted at her artsy style,
25:39and here she'd finally mastered it.
25:41My whole vibe for this look
25:43is like this Amazonian warrior goddess,
25:47and I feel really fierce.
25:48The red and black were a sharp color blend,
25:51which immediately drew our eyes to Detox.
25:53Now that's what I call an apple bottom.
25:56Red's delicious.
25:57Her figure was fully highlighted as well
25:59in a beautiful feminine illusion,
26:01whether it was the open chest or her intense thigh gap.
26:05She had mixed Fifth Element with a sexy robot
26:08and left us gobsmacked by a butt reveal,
26:10but those looks were more fun than fashion.
26:13This was all of Detox's strengths in one triumphant piece.
26:17Number four, Jujubee's golden goddess,
26:20all-star season five.
26:22Jujubee.
26:24Oh my goodness, that's gorgeous.
26:27Too much, so good.
26:28Jujubee had always had the personality for Drag Race,
26:31and her all-stars run showed she'd finally nailed the style.
26:34I am giving you the most superhero,
26:38super power-driven, enlightened version of Jujubee.
26:42Her final runway interpreted her Buddhist upbringing
26:44to frame Juju as a stunning goddess come alive.
26:48The whole bodysuit shimmered like a diamond,
26:50and the crown emphasized both the regal
26:52and spiritual tones of the look.
26:54She came down from the sky, she is a goddess,
26:58and she needs no wig because she's wearing the sun.
27:02Even the sash played on religious imagery
27:04as it gave a supernatural flow to her costume.
27:07Jujubee didn't let that stop her curves
27:09from shining through.
27:11Through modernizing her own roots,
27:12Jujubee found her most refined look
27:14in her entire history on the show.
27:17Stop relying on that Buddha.
27:21Number three, Aquaria's mermaid fantasy, season 10.
27:25There's something about a unique spin on a theme
27:27that will always turn heads.
27:29I'm giving you head-to-toe custom,
27:31dripping in water and oil, slick, everything.
27:34The mermaid-based runway had plenty of fun interpretations,
27:38but it was Aquaria's that truly stood out.
27:40While many queens opted
27:42for more classically beautiful looks,
27:44she went in a different direction.
27:46Indeed, Aquaria tied in environmental themes
27:49to create a fantasy creature affected by an oil spill,
27:52complete with a frayed tail and tears.
27:55I love the latex dripping from the bodice,
27:57and how the tail is kind of tattered.
27:59So Italian vogue, and I love the hair I'm obsessed with.
28:03It was the perfect combination of chic and bleak,
28:06and it was mesmerizing.
28:08It helped Aquaria stand out and secure the win that week,
28:11securing their spot as a front-runner.
28:13It was also evidence that she's always been
28:16much more than just a look queen.
28:18She can create a concept and deliver it flawlessly.
28:22She's finished.
28:23Number two, Manila Luzon's pineapple, season three.
28:27Manila Luzon.
28:30In the case of a humorous and quirky queen
28:32like Manila Luzon, a pineapple actually served
28:35as a distinguishing choice for a gown.
28:37The dress was immediately gripping
28:39thanks to its punchy yellow and green combo.
28:42The pineapple lines and leaf frill for the skirt
28:44were both funny and chic, as they were done
28:46with the right care to work as a normal outfit.
28:49The leaf hairpiece with slice earrings
28:51also provided clever accessories,
28:53and the pineapple clutch was too flashy to ignore.
28:56Whatever outfit Manila Luzon has worn,
28:58her pineapple has always been the most memorable.
29:01I'm just swaying my hips and smiling
29:04and showing off my purse and having a gale time.

29:24Number one, Violet Chachki's passing the crown look,
29:27season eight.
29:29Violet Chachki!
29:39In her return to help crown
29:41the next drag race queen in season eight,
29:43Violet Chachki tied many looks into one
29:45to show she was a true champion.
29:47Violet Chachki.
29:49Looking smart in tartan.
29:51Getting a reveal.
29:52Oh, God.
29:53Oh!
29:55She merged her jaw-dropping tartan reveal
29:57with her unusual Hello Kitty headpiece
29:59for a cloth covering that collapsed perfectly into her frock.
30:03The oversized skirt played on the looks of real royals
30:06and had so many finishing touches
30:08that we had to pause to catch them all.
30:10Violet's accessories recalled
30:11the jewelry-heavy outfit she won in
30:14and showed she'd matured since then.
30:16Her cinch was also tight enough
30:17to give her death-becomes-her-waste a run for its money.
30:20Oh, my God.
30:24As a summation of drag,
30:25the word queen and her whole career,
30:27Violet delivered a look to top them all.
