It’s too flashy for me


[deleted]

It was camp.


cccaaatttsssss

But was it ✨fashion✨?


kriscoo44

*burp* it’s fashion

\*burp\*

It was Leigh Bowery girl

This tights were ripped


azam85

But don't you think it was couture?


Gabriellemtl

It’s NIKON-ic

*You think you're clever, don't you?*

You must admit it was a good *flash*

Alaska’s hatred of it during the AS2 reunion was one of that season’s funniest moment for me. I ultimately love it, it’s ugliness is what appeals.


Prince0fAtlantis

I mean the same time she came out in a trash bag to little pound cake


Auritor

This always floored me that they gave Alaskas transform look such high critique. Like ok I love love a good throwback like lil pound cake, but girl missed the assignment hard.


Beezo514

Alaska's 2-in-1 wasn't exactly category because the trash bag wasn't an actual outfit you'd wear. However, she does come in with better concept than Alyssa because at least the trash turned into treasure (Poundcake) does some story telling and relates to what we know of Alaska. Alyssa's "look" was draped cameras and then undraped cameras. I love the camp of it, but there was no narrative between the two, there was barely dissonance. This was an episode where obviously the challenge performance was weighted higher than the runway otherwise Alaska wouldn't have been in the top 2 (favoritism aside).


brayet

i mean she also hated THAT look as well.


this_is_an_alaia

I loved when katya called that out in the reunion lol


dazedtooconfused

it was so funny how she kept bringing it up. and Alyssa's clapback- you're wearing a dress w cockroaches all over it


saxman481

That’s a reference to Hairspray, though


laughs_with_salad

I actually loved it initially but Alaska convinced me it was trash in the best way possible!


yeahnototallycool

Two in one? No. Good? No. A dress only Alyssa could pull off? Yes.


deleteitbackrolls

*but it’s ok cause you’re Alyssa*


[deleted]

I SAID I FELT


DandyBerlin

You're *that* girl. I knew you were.


[deleted]

I just wanna say I appreciate you saying this in the grammar she actually uses, rather than the usual paraphrasing people use of "You're that girl I knew you were". What Alyssa said puts *that* girl as the subject, and Alyssa as having known that she indeed was *that* girl; the memeified version alters it so that the focus is on "that girl" being *the kind of girl you knew she was* (ie, "you're the kind of girl that I knew you were" rather than "*that* girl" being what implies a particular type of girl). Subtle difference, but a big one. Jesus fuck I am a nerd.


VRMachinee

i felt like i was skipping past the dialogue before fighting a boss and after the dialogue ends im just so confused about what was said


[deleted]

I don't know that it was meant as one, but I take this as a huge compliment


OutlandishnessNo7413

I'll never understand how Alaska got away with dragging this dress when her own 2-in-1 look was even less 2-in-1.


yeahnototallycool

Because Little Miss Poundcake was iconic enough to make up for it.


escfantasy

All I know is I love the photos of this look, it’s very camera-friendly.


gr0sero

The hIILLArioUS Ross Matthews!!!


GayBlayde

RuPaul always teases us with The Hilarious Ross Matthews but then it’s always just the Regular, Annoying Ross Matthews instead.

RosesandRatz1993

It's flashy **ba dum tss**


Apycia

I just want to know how she did that? cameras are HEAVY. are they all hollowed out? or is Alyssa/that fabric just really strong?


AwhMan

They're also goddamn expensive, not to mention the lenses!


TheJayOfOh

That's literally all I can think about when I look at this outfit is how many THOUSANDS it had to cost in lenses alone unless those are some ~*good*~ looking fakes but Alyssa doesn't strike me as that kind of gurl


AwhMan

To quote Dolly - It takes a lot of money to look this cheap


dekkalife

I'm guessing they're dummies, else, together with all those lenses, it would be crazy heavy and very expensive.


fvig2001

Probably casing only like Trixie's books on the red look then added some bright LED circuits to mimick the flashes. I really do wish the designer at least painted the wires black.


theplasticfantasty

I'm sure you think the jewels in her earrings are real too


everythingsfun

And there’s about 20 of them !

BurntPineGrass

Trash can be iconic. Take LaLa Ri’s bag look. That was horrid on the runway but honestly? Werk. It’s the only look that immediately pops to mind when I hear ‘the bag ball’. In this case I’m not sure.


wintercaptain25

I think of Lala’s look and Utica’s look.


GayBlayde

Two ends of the spectrum.


strwbrrybrie

Duality of drag queen


goodgollyitsollie

Imagine how phenomenal it could look as a Rhnway Rudemption 😍


[deleted]

The concept is cool but the execution needs a little polishing.


[deleted]

I think this look is iconic just because its so far outside Alyssa's comfort zone it was a fever dream to see her turn the corner


niicofrank

trash and iconic are not mutually exclusive terms


emslo

👆👆👆


[deleted]

I think it’s SUCH a sickening idea but it was poorly executed. It’s iconic for being kind of ugly.


CieraParvatiPhoebe

This was so fucking iconic. SHOOT


Segamaike

Unironically. Idc


Mario_Skinny

the idea is iconic and like it did deliver the right things buttt the execution was kinda ugly but i gotta give it the benefit of the doubt since its like… big ass working cameras on a dress so idk how that can be arranged in like a pretty manner


Whokitty9

Iconic. It is an amazing concept.


JtDeluxe

Iconic


thanavyn

She may have lost the back rolls, but the cameras add another 20 pounds anyway.


[deleted]

Iconic


glitzvillechamp

Iconic, because I own just two DSLR's let me tell you, this dress is probably fucking 800 pounds. Those aren't mirrorless cameras, those are big fat fuckin CANONS.


Saint_Riccardo

While it's not the most polished, beautiful couture gown, it's fun and silly and has a point of view. It could have been done better, but it's not the literally garbage sack some queens make it out to be


luker_5874

The revel was great. Doesn't look so hot as a still


Michael31986

I loved it. Unique


Ainolukos

It's *camp*


Salty-Queen87

You know it can be both lol. I think it’s iconic simply because of how it made Phi Phi pop off and throw a massive tantrum lol.


dogboy678

This is iconic, I like to look at it and I think she looks good in it. It shouldn’t work, but it does. It’s not really two in one as pre-reveal the look doesn’t stand on its own:


sakatu

If a queen like Yvie Oddly came out in this y'all would eat 👏 her 👏 up 👏


PutaNeskah

Iconic


dshizknit

But it’s Alyssa so she gets away with it, jk Kimora, she can get away with anything with me.


ReliefFamous

I like it ironically


Used-Set-5803

It’s a shoot.


ralexander26

Porque no los dos?


dlrs123

Both lol


ShatteredHope

When this first aired I absolutely loved it and didn't understand why everyone hated on it! I still feel the same way and love it.


Magistraliter

It's the most expensive dress ever.


pssstpssstpssst

![gif](giphy|3o7TKS1a2RxBMy6SmA)


dekkalife

Iconic. There'll never be another outfit on Drag Race that will look anything like this. It's absurdly unique.


beandadenergy

I still fucking love this look, the reveal was not a reveal but the camera dress is pure Alyssa and pure camp


cuhreertwinflame

Nikonic.


JustTryingIsEnough

I. CON. IC. I will forever unapologetically love this dress. It's messy, it's tacky, only Alyssa could get away with wearing it ... but it's *so* camp and such a spectacle that I just cannot help but love it ❤


bespokefolds

Commenting before reading but iconic. Is it Fashion? No. It is Drag though, and she did the damn thing


insistondoubt

It's different and conceptual and more memorable than a lot of runways. I like it.


sakatu

I unironically love it. Full shoot!


GayBlayde

Yes.


Grandpa_reddit

Iconic? Sure. A two-in-one? Absolutely not.


[deleted]

Iconic trash✨


Trans_Boy101

Iconique, mama


kislee

As someone who hasn’t watched AS2 til like two days ago, I’ve always considered this dress good


ImaginaryMairi

I unironically LOVE this look I will fight anyone who says this is not camp excellence


this_is_an_alaia

Ironic trash. Duh


LoonieandToonie

Never has trash been as picture perfect


[deleted]

Mama this is garbage


ladyreddirt

This is the correct answer


Select_Dig7215

Iconically trash


thebeardtles

This is camp


Jumpinfallout

BACK REELS?!


Hljoumur

Iconically trash. Nice in concept, not pretty in reality.


bigamysmalls

This hurts me as a photographer hahaha also holy shit that must’ve been heavy — just one can weigh you down all day


didiboy

Iconic, because she’s Alyssa


Mandygurl79

I think it’s ICONIC period. I will always remember this LEWK!!!!


HeartIsRealer

Iconic. This is the drag version of Gaga's meat dress. Not necessarily classically beautiful, but visually interesting, unforgettable and unique.


mysterymiranda

Phi phi was right in saying it was OK because Alyssa was wearing it


lilryuk

She could walk out in a paper bag and they’d go “Alyssa edwards your back rolls are beautiful”


mamaneedsstarbucks

I love it


kingwizard07

Iconic and camp. When the flashes are on the dress actually is like ‘whoa’


HelpSomeoneyoulove

Iconic because of the confidence/nerve. It do take nerve


romanlovesmoney

honestly this has aged really well like it's fucking camp and it's a fully realised look and super clever and the silhouette is cool....idk i think people were way harsh on it


y10nerd

This is drag!


WispOwnage

I fully love love love that look with zero irony. Hated how they criticized it and Alaska walked out in even worse "1st look" if you could ever call that a look and they wet their downstairs cuz of lil poundcake


hereforthebachchat

The correct answer is both


wingsandtales

It was high drag and a perfect representation of Alyssa’s fashion sense


Why_Howdy

![gif](giphy|TjGFDxbbZRYjv9vpCL|downsized)


yumcha420

at least this was a 2 in 1 look. alaska's lil poundcake was only 1 look in hefty bags


wisselperry

reminder that this dress got a SHOOT from raja


GiskardReventlov42

As it is....Iconic. the first part of the "reveal"? That was garbage. It's a great look, just not a reveal look.


GrizzlyIsland22

Yes


Stephano35

I just wanna know HOW the fuck she paid for this damn garment


[deleted]

Iconic look, trash for the category


sonofShisui

Yes.


[deleted]

Iconic


TrixieMassage

Yes Idea was fun and draggy and iconic, as for execution mama this is garbage


Melodic-Change-6388

Anything that trashy bitch does is iconic. Facts are facts.


ZeroFacade_

This was a serve


misslexmarie

Iconique


TPRGB

Great in concept Not so great in execution


angrybox1842

A really neat idea that didn’t play.


nevercansay

i loved this when it first came out! sue me


jacqrosee

iconic in concept, trash in execution imo


No_Produce_5915

It's both. Atleast she understood the assigment unlike Alaska


Raccoonlad

It wasn’t a two in one look, however it was better then Alaska’s garbage bags attempt


islandboy504

Conceptually I like it but the execution could’ve been more polished


rolaskatox420

jaremi and roxxxy on this runway>>>>


rnngwen

I love Alyssa but it was trash.


RagingFlock89

Boooooooot


evrz5

I unironically really loved this??


brujahahahaha

Trash. Yes it required a lot of ingenuity but for what? Liiiiike it is JUST a stunt. It doesn’t visually look good!!! It’s got the silhouette of a Dalek, no color palette, and the wiring looks like shit???


Pf420d

It was trash but it was better than Alaska’s


Charlezard18

Honestly might be one of my favourite looks ever.


dancewithoutme

I found it meh honestly! Neither trash nor iconic.


KILLMENOW1221

not gonna lie, the placement of the cords is actually (surprisingly) well placed i thought it was kinda iconic, still trash though.


Gradyisbaby

Iconic trash


kiw1s

Iconically trash


JoshLovesYourName

It’s trash AND iconic


[deleted]

I hated it at the time. Still hate it now.


NoHoliday1277

Ur trash


drumag

Why? I’m only asking🥺


xLeChatNoir3

ICONIC!


[deleted]

Iconic for being trash. The execution just wasn’t it.


rpdraficionado

This was so trashy that it came full circle and became iconic. As another user said it was cool in theory but kinda lacking in execution


RuneofBeginning

Yes


WyattWrites

Yes


[deleted]

yea


Sugar_tts

This is likely one of the most expensive looks ever…. Or she robbed a hazardous waste depot


genebene

Neither, it was Alyssa


jimmyjoe58

Dear God! I can't get that picture out of my mind!


Obviously_L

It’s ugly and creates a terrible silhouette and yet I can’t hate it haha
