About

Naughty by nature and kitsch by choice, Mademoiselle Kiss left her native Normandy to conquer the world. A technicolor drag queen, she is a pop, sassy, and spectacular star of the Parisian scene. Beneath the wigs and makeup is Quentin Lefèbvre, who, in addition to creating his own outfits, has dressed some of the best French drag queens: Mami Watta, Sara Forever, Ruby on the Nail, and Lula Strega.

During this meeting organized at the Médiathèque Jean-Pierre Melville, Mademoiselle Kiss/Quentin Lefèbvre will share insights on costume design as well as the imagination required to compose the most extravagant outfits. And who knows, might even give you some tips on how to apply makeup!
