Join us as members of the Voguing community walk the runway, in a catwalk spectacular, competing in categories across fashion, beauty, realness and performance for prizes, in relation to the theme of the butterfly!
In its metamorphosis from the common, colourless caterpillar to the exquisite, winged creature of delicate beauty, the butterfly has become a metaphor for transformation and hope. Across cultures, it has become a symbol for rebirth and resurrection, for the triumph of the spirit and the soul over the physical prison, the material world. The butterfly symbolises transformation and joy. Its dance reflects the need for movement from where we are to our next phase of being.
This event is a celebration of global Vogue culture, so we ask that if you are not part of the Ballroom community, you learn about the scene’s history and cultural significance.
There are some categories that have an adult theme and are not suitable for younger audiences. Please be respectful of the performers and staff at all times. Somerset House staff may ask you not to take pictures, please ensure you listen to staff when asked to stop photography.
