Item Description
TICK (MITZI)
PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT
2011
Always dressed to impress, Tick makes a splash as Mitzi in this handmade flip-flop dress from Priscilla Queen of the Desert. The Mitzi bear wears exact replica of the Tony Award-winning Broadway original worn by Will Swenson and based on the Academy Award-winning designs from the film. Mitzi’s unusual outfit is made from hand-cut pink and orange miniature flip-flop sandals joined with gold jump rings and black velvet ribbon. The whole ensemble lays over a black spandex tube dress because Mitzi wouldn’t dare show her undergarments. However, she does enjoy some height, created by stacking hand-cut pieces of foam painted in the same neon colors as the flip-flops and trimmed with more black velvet ribbon. Black glitter laces run up and around her shapely legs. Mitzi’s outrageous wig completes the look. Quilted white neoprene fabric has been hand-painted in pink and accented with white gloss striping and dusted with authentic Priscilla glitter from the show. Her eyelashes come directly from the Broadway production. And although this drag queen is built to look like a muscled man, on the outside she is one fabulous woman.
