_Burning


_Currently I'm sat at my desk, part working, part blogging, but mainly watching the dawn of the 90's classic - 'Paris is Burning' - Such an incredible film.

"An unblinking behind the scenes story of fashion obsessed New Yorkers who created "voguing" and drag balls , and turned these raucous celebrations into a powerful expression pf personal pride. The world within a world is instantly familiar, filled with ambitions, desires and yearnings that reflect America itself. 'Paris is Burning' is an intimate portrait of one urban community, a world in which the allure of high fashion, status and wealth becomes an affirmation of love, acceptance and joy.
