ABOUT VOGUE
The modern ballroom scene was born in 1970s New York City by queer and trans communities of colour who were competing in various categories that mix performance, dance, and modelling.
The Australian Ballroom scene began in Southwest Sydney around five years ago before quickly taking off nationally.
“A ball is really a safe space for people to come and be themselves and express themselves without any judgement.”
Over time, the style of voguing changed from the Old Way, which emphasised solid lines, symmetry, and sharp angles (static poses that transition from one to another, as if flicking through the pages of Vogue) to the New Way of the late 1980s. The New Way introduced a fluidity and flexibility to voguing, adding moves like the duckwalk (squatting on your heels, kicking your feet as you move forward on the beat), catwalk, spins and dips.
Today, Vogue is more about rigid movements, clicks and locking, while Vogue Femme emphasises the dramatics, with ultra-feminine posturing and stunts like dips (NEVER CALLED A DEATH DROP)
Ultimately, voguing is about the freedom to express your truest self, to tell your story and perform any identity you want.
