I actually wore these looks while clubbing as a teenager in the 80s. It's super authentic with lots of attention to detail

[@lenaleewalker7704]

the make up or also the clothes?

[@jae7798]

@@lenaleewalker7704 80's goth glamour is a full fantasy so both ♥

[@whatheavensaid]

This look!! 💖💖💖 Siouxsie is a goddess genius!! And so is Nina Hagen!! Did you ever notice that Mrs. Munster seems to have inspired Nina's eyebrows? I always loved Siouxsie's magical yellow eye shadow in the "Spellbound" video, which matched her dress.

[@mohdshow]

Give Katya the violet chachki look

[@bluBlaq33]

80’s Goth Glamour is highly underrated, cool to see a Queen reference authentic Goth. Something many people forget about and they shouldn’t.

[@SherlockXWatson]

Siouxsie Sue Me and Shut the Front Door-- you look gorgeous and I love the New Wave look!! one of my favourite eras of goth. Thank you!

[@ThildasBeinhaus]

Nina Hagen and Siouxsie Sioux reference in one video?! We stan an educated queen

[@adriantorres7839]

Idk why I get so excited when your name is spelled out in the beginning of your videos lol

[@1357alpha7531]

Adrian Torres That beat is sick too.

[@TheOnlyChrisB]

Ikr wat is that sick song?!?!

[@Exogenesys]

It gives me anxiety hahaha. I wonder if it wasn’t as loud, if I would feel different

[@adriantorres7839]

I like dick in my mouth and money in my bank account

[@eyesthrurosecoloredglasses]

That’s the point! It’s like the opening of your favorite TV shoes, you get excited when you hear the tunes.

[@EmmyisMEx]

I love love love that you've done a video for the early 2000s and 80s. People always dismiss them as tacky, and they ARE tacky- that's what makes them fun! People are too afraid of tacky, and they're limiting themselves to being forever boring.

[@electrocute1979]

no following era can dismiss the 80s for being tacky

[@ViolentMoth]

Siouxsie Sioux in drag, Dave Gahan out of drag 🖤

[@coldfloral]

omg yes

[@alanas.6793]

Emma Salmon ok yes! I thought I was the only one who noticed who he looked like out of drag!

[@thedarthflagger]

Been saying he looked like him for years

[@lkv2021]

Yes!

[@Tracydot3]

He needs to play Dave in a Depeche Mode film.

[@kashdoll7324]

Ugh I love your digital drag series, it shows that your not just a drag queen but a fashion icon.

[@Mal-qt1ui]

I'm so happy you referenced Nina Hagen. I feel like she's so underrated and more people need to know who she is!

[@nomi.hagen.]

Nina would be my pick for Snatch game. She have a lot of potential for that.

[@Mal-qt1ui]

@@nomi.hagen. YES! That really needs to happen!

[@martas2340]

usually i dont watch these kind of videos but because its Violet i feel like if i dont watch what she posts im doing a crime because she is so creative and talented ❤️❤️❤️

[@violetsnotviolence]

I love it, giving us fetus Dave Gahan at the beginning and finishing with Siouxsie Sioux fantasy at the end.

[@beeblebroxx4299]

Almost spit out my coffee at this. :D

[@luxlagerfeld]

The 80s are my favourite decade when it comes to makeup. Adam Ant, Steve Strange, Boy George, The Human League, Siouxsie... I love it all. Love the androgyny and the DIY aesthetic.

[@CreativeCreatorCreates]

satinboys this! You said it perfect for me! This is my childhood.

[@joliecollier7937]

Yes!! And Violet reminds me of Boy George so much lol

[@madrigalthemediocre8449]

Love it! I can hear Spellbound playing as I see your look!

[@LadyGaGaNoFloods]

Siouxsie Sioux is honestly such an icon. The Banshees & The Creatures are such amazing bands and everyone needs to get into them! And wow such a gorgeous look Violet 😍

[@alcatelpixie9431]

Condragulations you are the winner of this week's challenge

[@xaviboi]

OMG!!! Siouxsie and Nina is what started it for me in terms of drag. Two of the most icon women in music and still LOVE them. Kids, class is about to start. Get a lesson on painting a flawless look inspired by 80's goth glam but also where it all started. You never seize to amaze. You look STUNNING.💜👄

[@bookgirl7484]

Siouxsie Sioux, The Cure. I was a post-punk girl. Stunning homage to our Queen.

[@xiHartSkittlez]

YESSSS VIOLET UPLOADED💕💕I always got you on notifs your content is so versatile and amazing💕

[@AngiePhoenix85]

The Siouxsie and the Banshees reference is EVERYTHING!

[@bleghh92]

LOVE IT! reminded me a lot of MALICE MIZER or Moi dix Mois, very early Visual Kei💕💕

[@mrpurple11]

Your comment make me feel like an old millenial😅. But yeah, that type of visual kei esthetic was inspired (in part) by 80s glam rock and new wave.

[@bleghh92]

@@mrpurple11 Well I'm 26 so i think I'm classified as a middle age millenial hah😅

[@MDoubleGG]

@@mrpurple11 me too 😂

[@yasminoliveira9793]

YASSSS

[@LadyKuroneko13]

Omg yaaaaas very malice mizer aesthetic

[@michellejensen632]

Is it just me who thinks, Violet out of drag looks like young Dave Gahan, lead singer of Depeche Mode......???😘

[@gjones7628]

No I see that too now you mention it. My own personal Chachki yassss!

[@thedarthflagger]

Been saying that for years

[@majoc4417]

I was just thinking that!!!

[@Irma_GA]

That's exactly what I thought when I first saw him, I might've gasped 😂

[@aherrmie]

Michelle Jensen Yes! Absolutely.

[@jacobdanz2492]

New wave androgyny realness. Love it 🥰

[@jesseferr3]

Is anyone else getting Vander Von Odd vibes from this look? IN LOVE WITH IT VI!

[@matelijanmuck9545]

3 seconds in and I already know the inspiration is Siouxsie Sioux my FAVORITE :)

[@noxwhisper]

Yass! giving me absolutely Siouxie Sioux/Nina Hagen realness

[@TylerLethersin]

Do a 90’s grunge look next cause I know you can turn it out gurl 💖✨

[@icarusstudio6960]

David Bowie Labyrinth vibes. One of my favourite childhood movies

[@n40m3h]

Ahhhh I hope itsblackfriday does a react video or maybe even she might follow this tutorial for a vid how ace would that be

[@annalenabaumgartner404]

n40m3h yessss! I was just thinking the same!

[@gerardocave7196]

Same.

[@8jaime8]

As someone who dressed like this in the 80s, it warms my heart to see it done so perfectly. You look like Siouxsie in the Spellbound video, an absolutely gorgeous and iconic look from 1981! 🖤 And thank you for not putting on false lashes this time. I always see people ruining the authenticity of their 80s looks by adding them. Somehow, it doesn’t surprise me at all that you got that detail right.

[@pantoponrosegoatoe4129]

Her work on THE GLOVE and The Creatures .....everything!!!!!!!

[@lisethyblue2926]

Love it, it's very authentic 80s, but you're much more put together and better made up than we ever were in my provincial hometown! I remember trying to do eyes like that, ended up a total mess. But it was a fun time, we went to jumble sales, customised high street clothes, and I had a gorgeous Victorian cape that belonged to my great-grandmother. People said I'd have a sensible haircut and be wearing beige by the time I hit 30 - they were wrong ;)

[@CreativeCreatorCreates]

You have referenced most of my most favorite looks and people from the early 80s. You do my childhood justice. Continue the gaggery. I live!

[@krissdevalnor5844]

You know Nina Hagen ! I'm so happy 💙

[@tobiasm8516]

THE AMOUNT OF "LIKE". I CAN'T. But the look is so stunning, and I love that Violet really bases her drag on a history of fashion/ culture. It really shows.

[@carloslanza2046]

you know violet came prepared and taped videos before going on tour. we love a queen who delivers

[@lauraelizabeth541]

As soon as you put the pressed pigment blush on, I was like, yep she's 80s now 😍

[@angelface132]

This is still genuinely one of my favorite makeup looks Violet and I think it's because it accentuates the aesthetic of your drag in particular when you talk about how you paint like you're drawing a woman rather than trying to be present as a woman. There's a graphicness in the details which adds new dimensions to your face which I can definitely appreciate, I hope you do another one of these videos soon. 🙏🏽

[@aherrmie]

Love, love, love it! I idolized Siouxsie Sioux and all the rest back in the ‘80’s. Absolutely love this look. 🖤

[@jessica23claire]

we love a queen with TASTE! Red Light is defs one of my favourite Siouxsie and the Banshees songs too along with Sin in my Heart, Night Shift, Little Sister, Dazzle, and of course Cities in Dust. Man I need to go bust some of that out again!

[@orphicqueen]

Red lip was the right choice. 🖤

[@HarleyChristo]

No one can do a look, like you queen.

[@SydneyVoodoo]

I can’t get over how AMAZE this look is! I’m absolutely in love! I 110% agree with you on how fresh and different the early 80s goth scene was! Definitely drawn to it myself because of the uniqueness it had! You’re living the Siouxsie Sioux dream right here 🖤

[@coreybarnes1167]

Honestly you are such an inspiration! The way you present yourself through your videos and editing is truly unique and I get so excited when I see you have a new video out, please never stop! Love you so much!! 🧡🧡🧡

[@jbird1130]

I've been loving every single thing you put out, we stan you so hard!

[@angeles7155]

EVERYTHING is perfect in this look, I just can't

[@yaelsh5184]

I literally came back from your show to your video. CAN YOU IMAGINE SOMETHING BETTER THAN THIS? Love you Violet!❤️🙌🏼

[@Valenya23]

LOVE THIS, it's soo great to see a younger person reference these cool ass times. (I was barely a babe during the height of new wave, so I guess I ccan't say much.)

[@melty6119]

i might be biased since im a goth lol but I also feel like this look just suits you so well!!!

[@H-nz3ndd]

I’m so glad you started making KZbin videos! They’re my favourite

[@leia03]

Yessss Violet upload! 💕💕 Always look forward to your video's. 😍

[@maxmarx2850]

Stunning. Love your references!! Can’t get over how amazing your content is

[@mariamehu]

I never thought I’d love a green eye with a red lip this much😍

[@alexandramorow7226]

So different so fresh so beautiful. COUTURE

[@mrpurple11]

This look is the summit of everything I love in terms of music. That blush is furiously popping

[@kristinfrazee2097]

I just had a YAZ moment!!! Yes I am a 80's babe!!!

[@MMelt-pd8or]

One of the main reasons you are my favorite queen ever is that you are also a fan of the new wave/goth/post-punk scene! I love it for many of the same reasons you do. I was so excited to see you did this! Love you Violet!!

[@leorios6400]

I love it when she says "the wigetry of it all"! makes me smile EVERY time 💖😊

[@orphicqueen]

That being said, absolutely gorgeous look!

[@Dada00x]

You’re sincerely one of my favorite drag queens, I love your style and your artistry, keep your good work! You’re so interesting to watch, I love you so so much, thanks for inspiring me so much everyday! ❤️

"Spellbound" video-era Siouxsie! Love it! Also, the way you're eye-f*cking the camera is giving me some wicked Traci Lords attitude. Love it!

Ive only recently discovered drag race, but I've already watched season 7 before the other seasons because I thought that some of the looks you did were so incredible that I couldn't be asked to watch the first 6 seasons to watch you. Keep up the great work :)

[@bubblequaza5834]

What a ICON I swear. Such a inspiration

[@angel-yw4uk]

This is THE look! Love it !

WOW! It looks so good. DYING!!!
