Sensen Lii delivered another exciting show for fall 2024, following an electric debut in Paris at L'Élysée Montmartre last September.
This time, it was a fantasy dance to the theme of “Kill Bill.” British drag performer Charity Kase opened the show by reciting modified lines from Lucy Liu's character, O-Ren Ishii, in the cult film.
Tayce, a well-known British drag queen, was the first to hit the runway wearing a rhinestone metal frame bra, a green faux fur trimmed coat, and a pair of brown pleated bell bottom pants.
Lii said the bra was his version of a gun rack, seen on fembots in “Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery,” while romanticizing violence like Quentin Tarantino did, to some extent, in “Kill Bill.”
“I want everyone to live in their own fantasy, to be different and not be afraid of who they are,” said Lii, who recently moved to Paris from Shanghai to take advantage of the global growth potential.
Lii didn't just send looks made for drag performances to the runway. There were graphic T-shirts, pleated miniskirts, restored hoodies, cute boxers, and faux fur jackets, all of which had real business implications.
Not to mention their eye-catching collaboration with Beats by Dre on crystal-embellished headphones in gradient shades of purple, green, yellow, blue and red. It wouldn't be a surprise if the Apple-owned headphone specialist wanted a mass-produced version to hit the market at some point.
