A gigantic neon banana ensemble turned heads and raised eyebrows at the 76th Emmy Awards on Monday. Perhaps you can guess who was inside the extravagant outfit. It was none other than Taiwanese-American drag superstar Nymphia Wind. Dressed in her signature yellow and sporting her fashion-forward look, she created a sensation on the red carpet.
The 76th Emmy Awards on Monday night were a glittering spectacle of the biggest TV stars. Acting legend Meryl Streep and Captain Marvel herself Brie Larson were among a host of A-listers turning heads with stunning ensembles. But one red carpet fashion moment stood out above the rest. Its protagonist? Taiwanese-American drag queen Nymphia Wind.
Nymphia made a jaw-dropping entrance with a neon yellow bodysuit studded with black rhinestones, all concealed inside a massive banana peel. The extravagant look marked a drastic departure from her previous glamorous looks, setting the event abuzz.
US media described her outfit as an unexpected surprise. Nymphia was at the ceremony after her win in Season 16 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, which was nominated for an Emmy.
On her Instagram, the drag superstar had joked that she only showed up in the banana outfit, because she had forgotten to do her makeup for the event.
Nymphia’s victorious run on RuPaul’s Drag Race was packed with funny gags and campy looks, a trend that she’s continuing to champion on the red carpet with more meticulous designs.
