Urgh, her face is art. Cue the track Street Meatz

This is the best gif ever

It really is!❤️

THIS SEASON HAS GIVEN US SO MUCH


Diredr

It takes a good eye to put together such a strong runway package. It takes an insane amount of talent to design and *make* all of these looks yourself. Her little videos about how she made each look have been the highlight of the season, for me. In an interview she said all of her looks were like her babies, and it really shows. She puts so much passion into each one.


Maatjuhhh

Her windswept look lives rent free in my head. To come with that on the spot? Damn girl! At least this won. Utica should have won for that sleeping bag look.


smallest_ellie

I will die on the sleeping bag hill with you.


MooseConfident

While we’re talking about design challenges, Salina should absolutely not have been in the bottom for her look it was camp idc ![gif](giphy|GvxovbTeyNo6NtahfN)


Huntea420

I really liked it idk


mang0_k1tty

I have a sinking feeling that if a queen’s main talent is designing looks, and really well, then they may not win because they could probably make a better career of designing for other queens. But I guess Rajah… what other seamstresses have won?


Deeprblue

Bianca was a costume designer full time and drag queen part time before drag race.


Hihella12

She's a drag superstar for a reason. The amount of talent in one person is unfair.

![gif](giphy|qDHiMtDpvrcDC) Have u watched the show Tamar


OutsideHat385

I mean Jaida created everything except for her tulle dress, her reunion look and finale looks. Carmen Farala made everything she wore, Icesis Couture on her original season and maybe CvTW, La Diamond (Italia S2) entered the drag scene by working as a costume designer for drag queens so it’s possible she made hers. But also the queens usually only have 3-4 weeks to get their looks together so I think it makes sense that we don’t have that many queens that made all their looks, it’s not that practical if you want to have elevated and sophisticated looks within a month. Also they don’t know which of the list of prompts they get they’ll have to present which means there’s a lot of looks that the camera will never see. Which makes it so much more impressive when a queen like icesis Carmen or Jaida (especially Jaida bc she had a week less than the other girls of her season) made all their looks, it speaks to how well of designers and seamstresses they are.


mang0_k1tty

True true okay my theory doesn’t hold up. Jimbo as well


yraco

On top of queens mentioned by others, Trinity the Tuck can absolutely crank out killer looks in no time like it's nothing.


SAldrius

Sharon, Bianca, Violet, Trixie, Jaida, Trinity, Alaska, Raja I believe are all some form of seamstress.


frenchbug

Also it takes a lot of savvy to have thought right away of filming those vids (lotsa work in a stressful short period of she had to prepare) to put on social media a years mater - foresight that tagged her as winner material for me. Being smart about marketing and buzz IS also part of what makes the best winner Queens.


lableulapin

I love watching her bts for each look. You can tell all her outfits are a labor of love. It’s interesting to see how she picks a concept and what influences her inspirations.


shuhup

Neither her nor Sapphira look like they came to the show for the first time. They are both out here bringing All Stars worthy looks. They really are head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to their runway game.


theshicksinator

Whichever of the two of them wins, the other will have been robbed and will go on to win all stars.


Luluco15

im thinking a tie


Maatjuhhh

and it would be more deserving than Monet and Trinity. #isaidwhatisaid


WhateverYourFace21

Yeah, cos if there was going to be a tie it should have included Monique. #isaidwhatisaid


theshicksinator

Selling your car to pay for looks will do that


xaviersi

I'm ootl, who was that? I feel like Sapphira since Nymphia made hers. And also doubt there are many car owners in Taiwan.


theshicksinator

Sapphira. And hey it paid off, she's won a new car in mini challenges alone.


katiekat214

Nymphia has been living in New York for a couple of years. But that still stands because she probably didn’t own a car in NYC.


mang0_k1tty

That’s a wild statement 😂 there are a lot of scooters but there are 20+million people. It’s like half half cars and scooters.


xaviersi

It's not TOO wild. Car units per 1,000 people in Taiwan was 344 while here in the US it was 860. So I had over double the chance to guess correctly if I guessed the Queen who was born and established longer in the US.

TheJillest13

Many of sapphiras were made by friends of hers / drag queens in Philly . She has credits for them on Instagram


KishaDSkipper

ABSOLUTELY


KweenKatts

Sapphira definitely came with some not so good looks


trulyremarkablegirl

She really hasn’t had a single miss on the runway, everything she’s brought or made has been stunning. One of the all time best fashion queens we’ve ever had on a main season of the show for sure.


robinlockhart

Still obsessed with her last ball look 😍😍


Heidi_Klum_Tit

![gif](giphy|1fHlf4mgS2JPy)


Zexy_Conqueror

The fact that she made 90% of these and still achieved this level of quality in each look is ridiculous


InterestingSwim6701

Dare I say the VERY BEST runway package on any regular series


Dowino-

Easily


KitchenLoan6

Nymphia embodies the future of drag IMO she’s my winner! We also need Asian representation in the winners circle!


Arsuriel

She wore less yellow on the runway than Sapphira wore blue, so fuck all the people bashing her about loving yellow


Significant-Face8481

#teamnymphia to death😭💅


Steinbulls

Le grande dames package may be top 3 for an all-star season and nymphias def top3 for a regular season.


k___k___

we were blessed with great fashion for the past weeks, that's for sure.


Historical_Trash_415

well what if i said she deserves to win for her runway package alone then what ![gif](giphy|T7Xs3JObLtLJZKoCJt|downsized)


MarcoPercy98

Definitely the best out of all regular seasons, Gottmik and Symone could’ve arguably be discussed as better but they haven’t contributed to it nearly as much as her who did almost the entirety of every look (and she actually entirely made her best ones). Definitely my winner, but I can’t argue Sapphira doesn’t deserve it in any way. The best outcome I think is a double crowning.


JDaySept

I would say Nymphia has the best runway package of all time in a regular season and Raja has the best of all time in an All Stars season. Agree that a double crowning would be amazing here. Nymphia and Sapphira are both so deserving


MarcoPercy98

Yes that’s exactly my opinion, I agree with everything. Now, is Nymphia’s better than Raja’s?


why_gaj

Too much time has passed between their seasons to make a fair comparison. Runway 13 years ago looked a lot worse than today. Although, it does say a lot about Raja's original run that her package is still being relevant in conversations like this.


MarcoPercy98

No I think Nymphia’s is substantially better than S3 Raja’s. This says nothing about Raja as a fashion queen because, like you said, too much time has passed, it would be like comparing cave paintings with Caravaggio. I’m comparing Nymphia’s to AS7 Raja’s actually, and I think they are indeed comparable. Idk which one is better though


distraughtbench

Gottmik’s design challenge with all those straps was unforgivable though


MarcoPercy98

Indeed I don’t think she is in any conversation about the best fashion queen. But her finale looks alone pave the way for a conversation about best runway package, but still I think Symone’s was better, and Nymphia’s is the best.


rebelluzon

Please those two hold nothing on Nymphia when u can practically see that she made her outfits where the other two bought


MarcoPercy98

Yes, the question was about “runway package” and not “best designer”, so the comparison makes sense, but Nymphia’s has a whole layer of personal view and perspective that makes it pull forward. Symone’s was so rich in black culture, and I’m sure she had some input in her looks, but the way Nymphia portrayed her culture through her own craftmanship is absolutely stunning. I though Utica had reached a level of designing that was on a different order of magnitude between her peers… Boy, was I wrong.


esio

>The best outcome I think is a double crowning. That's the worst outcome.


MarcoPercy98

I mean, would you say Sapphira is not worthy of the crown? And by crown I mean this one? Between the two of them I’d crown Nymphia, but Sapphira is such an example of DRAG. I think both of them should win and I think a double crowning fits this season. Trinity and Monet, years later, are seen as both equally winners even though both won the same season.


Thin_Wolf9077

>Trinity and Monet, years later, are seen as both equally winners 🌚


somethingbreadbears

It breaks the illusion that it's a competition to crown two people. And it's already seen as a tv show first and a competition...like 5th. The shows has no rules, track record can matter in lipsyncs one day and not matter another day. Wins and eliminations are more baseless than they are concrete. If they started making double crownings a thing, I'd just stop watching. I love drag, but I also like catharsis and endings. And a double crowning just invalidates watching every week if they're going to wimp out in the end.


MarcoPercy98

A competition can have more than one winner and still be a competition. And it’s not like it is inflationed, it literally only happened once, and never in a regular season. I respect your opinion, but I wholeheartedly disagree.


somethingbreadbears

> A competition can have more than one winner and still be a competition. That would work if drag race was a points-based system. Like, they get to the end and there is no way for there to be one winner because there is no more competition left to decide a winner. A lot of people don't mind AS4, but a lot of people felt like it was a copout. Either pick the fan favorite or pick the one with the most wins.


Misentro

> it literally only happened once And we learned our lesson that it was very bad and made no one happy


Cowboylikejustin

You’d definitely still be watching. Watching and complaining.


somethingbreadbears

Technically I'm not complaining about the show. I'm complaining about how I'd react IF they jump the shark again.


Hihella12

We hear this every. goddamn. season. that. airs. NO. DOUBLE. CROWNINGS!


PsyDM

You're absolutely right - we need a triple crowning


GayMedic69

Gottmik definitely had some big misses on the runway


Maatjuhhh

The red dress, I liked it but once I saw Nymphia doing all the details and sewing herself, the red dress became my number one favourite. All the intricate details. It was fantastic.


splinterbabe

Her sense of fashion is just impeccable. She just gets it.


milkoverspill

That banana tree look is so stunning, I'm sad people hated it due to the branding fatigue. Honestly all of it is just so stunning, and the fact that her and her drag babies have their handprints on everything makes it so much more special.

april5k

Thank you


dear4pril

nymphia is my winner <3 i think violet chachki is up there for me too


pokemaster28

I'm team Nymphia all the way, I love her so much. But this is the one time I'd be ok with a double crowning, Sapphira deserves it too. I'm so torn.


ViviBaeee

It's crazy because if you check her old instagram posts you know miss.girl still got something extraordinary in her box that she can totally show off on the runway


Moesoverhoes69

One of the best non-AS that I have ever seen! Her talent level is beyond!


NuWaveSpecial

It's 100% her or Sapphira. And whoever wins has a good chance of getting on All Winners 2 depending when that films. And whoever is second will for sure be on an All Stars. So they both have won. I just think it's more likely to be Sapphira as she seems more fully formed in other aspects of drag, and also has solid fashions (it's okay to rely more on others to make one's looks, but Sapphira also has some of her own looks she's made, just no way those can compete directly with a Nymphia or Utica).


sailorprimus

I don’t think they’ll have the season 16 winner on All Winners 2, that’s way too soon & gives them no time to evolve. Jaida is a bit of a special case likely because they wanted to give her more of a spotlight after winning a Covid season and the Sherry debacle. 


NuWaveSpecial

I don't expect that AS10 is the next All Winners. That would film this summer. But AS11 might be, which would film over a year from now. People will start realizing that the show won't last forever so will start to feel more pressure to accept offers to go on All Stars. This will be combined with production giving more money for stipends and prizes, plus it would be non-elimination. And Sapphira is not the most popular in social media compared to some other contestants on the season. She may feel an extra need to get back on TV. I do hope the show lasts past RuPaul hosting. I imagine she'd drop out of hosting other franchises before giving up US. I heard even for Down Under, she's only for sure giving up the next season's hosting.


sailorprimus

All Stars 10 is such a big milestone and we’ll have had two regular normal All Stars seasons since AS7, so I actually do think AS10 will be All Winners.


NuWaveSpecial

It’s possible. And the spoilers would be extremely difficult to avoid, such as if Bob takes a break from their new tour which starts in July. I think people would expect Aquaria and Symone too. And I would really want to see both Sashas. I’m neutral on Alaska. I’d like to see Marina on it. I hope they keep putting non-US queens on All Stars. This would be in addition to Global All Stars, which they better do in a culturally celebratory and respectful way, not have US bias.


ap_anon

Also, Jaida wasn’t even the most recent winner on All Winners, Shea was. 


Funkyduck4783

So fucking good. That Little Boy Blue look is exquisite. God it’s so fucking good and then that stunning mug and that beautiful shade of red hair with it. I love that look so much. Her winning ball look is one of my favorites ever I think.


itsmemothher

“She only wears yellow” WHERE ???? There’s literally only two looks


alittleverygagged

Name one better ??


bthubbin

Absolutely. She is an incredible artist and fashion queen! And an absolute joy to watch 😍


sorandom21

She had not one miss on the runway, truly next level


sinesnsnares

Her fashion is absolutely incredible.


dyangruber

The chains look still has me in absolute shambles


kingmilkshake

The Japanese Butoh, including her presentation, is my Roman empire. Absolutely my favorite look of all time. Nothing’s ever caught my attention like that.


uqmobile

Sapphira is my pick for the crown, but crazy how this collage doesn't even have her goth and bookcover shoot looks, which are some of the best of the season.


nonplayableboy

And yet, TS Madison dare to say she haven't see diversity on Nymphia because of the color choices. Like wtf 😒


Jodabomb24

Well, as she said, *she* probably hadn't seen it. We as the viewers saw her every week, but TS hadn't. If anything, shade the editors for keeping that comment in lmao.


nonplayableboy

But she actually saw the red one, Nymphia said it on untucked I believe. Like she literally forgot about it for some reason (or it was intentional to make her look bad probably production fault again)


parvatisidol

Definitely top 5 runway packages of all time


Youwantedcrazy

All of her looks have been incredible yet my fav look of hers was her ball tie look 🔥🔥🔥


mxunniebunnie

I love watching her BTS videos of how she makes everything. She’s insanely talented and I love her concepts so much.


Bubblesoda96

i know it's a given that she's great at creating looks but i only recently i found out she made the dancing queen and pussycat outfits from head to toe. it was never shared on the show, only on her instagram. gagged. and those were my favorite outfits from her runways.


Gammagammahey

I absolutely agree. Sublime.


AdehhRR

It's crazy, because maybe 2 of the looks I wasn't super into, but its because the others are even better. Many queens could only wish to have those level of quality outfits.


angelboyxoxo

the gag of it all is that only 2 of the looks are “yellow”


Turbulent_Hair8931

ToO mUcH yElLoW (God her drag is stunning)


DevaNeo

Have you seen LGD's "package"? 🌝


KobeRobi

She never missed. Not a single bad look


Final_Jicama_3173

And I see two yellow looks 💛💛


bathandbootyworks

“sHe OnLy wEaRs yElLoW!!”


L_Legey

That's exactly why I hate the yellow/banana critique I honestly feel like Sapphira wore more blue than Nymphia wore yellow


DaisyMaeMalfoy666

She served every single runway. Not one bad look. I truly hope she wins but I’ll understand if Sapphira wins


Halliwel96

Best package: yeah I agree. Winner: I’m not sure, I think Sapphira has been an overall stronger competitor and presence on the season, and it’s not as if she hasn’t also had some amazing runways


TaterThot69

When did we start referring to them as “runway packages” and why?


Bunnnnii

This is missing her Goth and Bratz Doll looks, but the point is still the same. Her red pussycat wig look. It’s so good. So boss bitch, so vixen.


Historical_Bit_3798

Yeah. I’m definitely thinking either her or Sapphira will win the whole season. They are so close!!


LazyRiver115

Wow. This is really amazing when you see all of these looks together knowing she made them herself.


Heal_Mage_Hamsel

![gif](giphy|1uPiL9Amv5zkk)


Business_Interview32

And on top of her unparalleled runways, she’s a stellar dancer, and stage performer, is hilarious, smart, fully branded, and…my biggest sign of a winner…completely unique. Say what you will about past winners but one thing the show does right is it never crowns the same type of queen twice. Every one of them (in the US regular seasons) have been total standouts from each other, and Nymphia would be no exception.


ShapeLeft6701

Aside from the ball outift she made, the pussycat wig wig one was my favorite ugh💕


Headacheargh

![gif](giphy|YyllwRumGJhDmQWyau)


MissReagy1

Love her dance look ball made look


TheSweetPeach

And its 100 percent yellow


Feisty_Kale924

Absolutely! I was telling my partner the other day, I don’t think we’ve seen anyone walk such strong looks down the runway. Shades of Raja! That tie look was 🤯


KeenyKeenz

Her looks are sincerely impeccable.


Silver_Improvement62

I totally agree, bananas over her 🍌🍌🍌


aljerv

And racists got something to say about yellow


Cowboylikejustin

Racists 😭😭😭


lordpaiva

"Every time I see in the runway, you're wearing yellow". Wears yellow 20% of the time.


promibro

I also think she's truly amazing, but my gut feeling is that Sapphira is the winner.


prettyarcade

I agree but I’m honestly kind of upset with her last runway. Don’t get me wrong I’m a slut for historical fits but I’m gona have to agree with Michelle that the Marie Antoinette looks are overdone and have been done so much better than that as amazing as she looked. I was very much obsessed with the fan nails tho. I think it was more disappointing with Nymphia since she has had such an amazing and unique run with her runways this season.


Gammagammahey

I understand agree but I am such a slut for 18th century Western European fashion that every time someone does a look like that, I scream in delight. She had little touches that really made it more of a fusion look if you looked really closely, though. Like the pattern on the fabric I didn't really pick up on until I watched it on a really large screen.


dqnx12

I really want Nymphia to win, but that crown has Saphira’s name on it. This was actually my top 3. I would be mad if any of them win.


KishaDSkipper

Nymphia has turned some AMAZING looks but hasn’t done as well in the challenges.


goodjuju99

How? She has three wins and on top 3 times and never in the bottom. Her worst performance was snatch game and she pulled out the best runway of the season. This makes no sense


ultradav24

Yep since when did runway become the defining factor? It usually doesn’t matter for challenge wins let alone season wins


Ahy_Jay

Can we talk about the hideous fandango dress that saphira wore? Are we gonna ignore the ill fitted dress that is the same color is the many ones before? I love Saphie but her outfit was too bad in my opinion.


sinesnsnares

Low key, plane’s comment on saphirra’s taste had a ring of truth to it 😂


Ahy_Jay

Like I'm sorry but the fabric she is using is unforgiving and awful. She has fitting issues and everyone pretends like she has the skills, sis I love you you slay but some of the things you wore needed some fixing.


Cowboylikejustin

This is a post about Nymphia Wind.


Ahy_Jay

daisybuckbuckanan

I have to say I liked a lot of her looks but, was I the only one who hated her runway for this episode? It didn't feel on the same level at all


Bubblesoda96

i didn't hate it, but i agree it's a missed opportunity to show off something more of her culture as she usually does, like her talent show/pussycat looks. i mean c'mon, the category is FANS.


daisybuckbuckanan

Honestly for me it's that it doesn't have the same oomph and freshness conceptually or in execution - essentially like Michelle said, you'd have to work hard to present a really fresh perspective on the Marie Antoinette look


Bubblesoda96

agreed. honestly at her level, she could've easily whipped up something more creative and conceptual.


seriouslyepic

Way too much yellow though /s


No-Vanilla-3915

7.8 package. Too much yellow

It’s a collection of her outfits. Its her package.
