Prateik Babbar turned up in the avatar of a drag queen at the Lakme Fashion Week 2018 Day 1 and sure made eyes pop! Chola the Label’s ‘Bye Felicia’ show was based on the theme of gender fluidity. The actor and the entire show presented the much-talked about drag culture. Prateik’s drag queen avatar, was an attempt to symbolise yin and yang, both female and male energy. One can also see a lot of quirks thrown in, from the glasses to his structured make-up!
But in hindsight, isn’t this a bit too passe now? It’s definitely been exploited by McQueen over the years during his shows. But Prateik was clearly high on drama! Take a look.
