DRAG EVENTS AND NIGHTLIFE

The Lady Bunny's Drag-stravaganza Wigstock was a Labor Day staple for decades for the wigged and bedragged of all persuasions. Lot of pics of audience and performers and more.

Best known for their epic Night Of A Thousand Gowns the charity drag mega-spectacle, The Imperial Court of New York is truly royal in every way! We love the intricate system of titles and the serious stagecraft involved in this organization, and the good work that they do all year round. The International site chronicles 33 years of glamour and good works all over the globe. All Hail the Emperor and Empress!

The Club Creatures site is hosted by the extravagant gender-blurring dressers and clubland photographers Zazoo and Satori. It includes one of the best links pages on glam clubbing we've ever seen. The Creatures arent Drag Queens, exactly, but what they do is definately drag!

SITES OF SPECIAL INTEREST

For over a decade, Miss Understood brought a much-needed professionalism to drag go-go stints at our clubs and countless others worldwide. Her Screaming Queens company and website is a talent agency for drag queens. If you're good enough to get paid for it, or are curious about your sisters who do, give this site a look.

One of the transgendered world's greatest online emissaries is Ms. Vicki Rene who singlehandedly (it seems) maintains the enormous, upbeat site The Prettiest of the Pretty. This is a site you can get lost in for many hours, and the sense of community is catching. Worth many visits, as it is constantly being updated and improved.

Susan's Place Transgender Resources is a support resource for the transgender community which provides information of use to transsexuals, crossdressers, and their familes. Resources available include Reference Library, Site Reviews, Forums, GRS surgeon reviews, Wiki, and much more.

The Fabulous Tasha is a personal site from the crossdresser's perspective - it is a wonderful resource for all things CD/TV. The linkspage alone is worth a visit, and Tasha also offers art, wisdom and pics.

The NY ballhouse community glimpsed in "Paris Is Burning" revolved for many years around Sally's Hideaway, the Times Square drag den frequented by legends including Dorian Corey and Queen Mother's own Gina Germaine. Photographer Brian Lantelme has documented these beauties for many years and we are delighted that his site sallys-hideaway.com is now online.

ONLINE SHOPPING

Since 1981, Lydia's Transgender Fashions has catered to Los Angeles based TVs and crossdressers. The Lydia site is the closest thing to a TG shopping mall that we could find - EVERYTHING dragalicious for THE LADY WITHIN!

Pat Field and her House of Field have long dressed cross-dressers and theatrical drag queens (as well as employing many as glam salesgirls.) We're delighted that this fashion empire has an online home patriciafield.com - as its so convenient to mail-order such staples as her signature stretch under-outerwear from the comfort of home!
