If you’re a fan of Rupaul’s Drag Race chances are you are already familiar with stunning season 7 winner, Violet Chachki. As if that victory wasn’t a huge accomplishment on it’s own, now the 25 year old burlesque sensation has made history with a brand new campaign with Bettie Page lingerie.
The line comes from London based brand Playful Promises who specializes in retro glamour themed merchandise. Choosing a gender-fluid model for their latest campaign seems like a natural choice for the company, who always makes sure to cover every race, shape, and size. I know when I look at Violet I am not thinking “is that a man or a woman” all I am seeing is an exquisite looking human being who is truly mesmerizing. Violet channeled Page many times on Drag Race so this collection and campaign are on-point for her brand and aesthetic. Over the summer Violet had the prestigious honor of touring with the queen of pinup glamour herself, Dita Von Teese. The flirty designs in this collection feel like they have come straight from that calibre stage. In the stunning photoshoot for the campaign Violet channels the opposite of ‘the girl next door’ perfectly, donning a number of stockings, bras, garters, panties, and corsets.
Below you can see the sassy and classy pieces which retail from $26-$99.
