V&A Dundee - Drawing Cheddar Gorgeous

Workshop Leader | Fashion Life Drawing with Cheddar Gorgeous | Part of he Public Engagement Programme of Events for TARTAN and THE FASHION SHOW: EVERYTHING BUT THE CLOTHES Exhibitions

"Drag icon Cheddar Gorgeous is ready to strike a pose!

From sporting the incredible Liquorice Black suit on our Tartan posters to stunning the judges on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Season 4 – Cheddar Gorgeous is always impeccably dressed.

Guided by fashion illustrator Katie Braid, join us to sketch Cheddar Gorgeous wearing a specially commissioned ensemble by Scottish designer Owen Edward Snaith. The never-before-seen outfit features Snaith’s newly registered ‘Incentive’ tartan, designed in collaboration with Alloa-based hand weaver Taffled Threads.

Sketching live in the museum, you’ll quickly draw silhouettes, explore the garment’s cut and pattern, as well as capture the attitude and energy of our brilliant model.

No experience is necessary, and beginners are very welcome!

This event is part of the public programme exploring themes from Tartan and The Fashion Show: Everything But The Clothes, both open now."
