Custom Rhinestone Drag Looks for Pattie Gonia
Feast your eyes on the dazzling rhinestone Pleaser boots custom designed for the awe-inspiring drag queen, Pattie Gonia. These exquisite boots were inspired by the magic of a rainfall, with tightly clustered crystal rhinestones at the base that dissipate as they ascend the boot. The glistening boots were worn on Pattie Gonia during her memorable performances with Sasha Velour and the Save Her! environmental drag show, and are a stunning example of how two creators can come together for a thrilling collaboration.
A dazzling sister pair to Pattie Gonia's iconic boots were created that same year. These gold rhinestone Pleaser boots, featured on the cover and in the music video of Pattie's debut single "High Heels," symbolize the fusion of drag fashion and music. Crafted with precision, each boot radiates with meticulously placed gold rhinestones, showcasing the artistry and activism at the heart of Pattie and Alludiem's partnership. This stunning creation celebrated creativity, empowerment, and environmental consciousness in the community.

In their third collaboration, Alludiem and rising fashion star Anna Molinari brought to life a striking custom performance outfit for Pattie Gonia, themed "Big Oil Kills." This powerful ensemble features a jacket adorned with oil slick rhinestones, meticulously arranged to mimic the appearance of dripping oil, while jet black stones outline the garment, intensifying its impactful look. This collaboration not only showcases the unique blend of Alludiem's craftsmanship and Molinari's innovative design but also serves as a vivid expression of environmental advocacy through fashion. This statement-making look, worn by Pattie, underscores the artistry and activism that define their collective work, making a bold statement against environmental degradation. The statement making piece even caught the attention of Vogue Magazine in September 2024.
