Queen Alloura Takes Over FQ Dramatic Vogue
Alloura used vogue performance to express her subjectivity. Voguing allowed her to represent her deepest realities and past traumas. She would always say "Voguing was her therapy."
"The Teacher vs The Student"
Yolanda Jourdan, an "IT" girl of the 1990s taught and influenced Alloura, & her performance. They were in the House of Jourdan, and they were sisters. This night, everything shifted, when Alloura spread her wings, and joined the House of Ebony. A rivalry was born.
Icons Pony & Alloura Zion. They were not just brother and sister, in the name of vogue, but in life. They were the true mirrors of each other, in their performances. They both expressed their feelings, through their performance on the runway. They could come up with a synchronized routine, in mere minutes. They loved to feed off each other's energy, and loved to give a crowd a show.
