Join local queens Nicki Nastasia and Miss Edie Violet as they discuss the history of drag fashion through the gaze of trail blazers of Queer history, both local to London and beyond. Help them create an exclusive pride costume and art piece to be displayed at Eldon House in honour of Pride Month. Guests will be encouraged to add their own unique signature or creative flourish to a one-of-a-kind garment! The gown is created by artist and seamster Edie Violet and will be stored in the Eldon House collection in perpetuity and displayed for years to come in honour of Pride in London and its community. Add to a piece of ‘future’ London ‘history’ and learn about the origins of fashion history and view some of the beautiful costumes designed and worn by local performers. Light refreshments provided.
