queer decades Dinner

Queer  decades  dinner  Party

As the Brussels Mannekenfish celebrate a decade of existence, the dinner on Friday 11 November will be a celebration of queer history and queering history. The clubs will be in competition to win the Grand Prize of the Queerstory Ball.​

Dress code
​

​Each club has been attributed a specific decade as a dress code for the dinner in an epic sorting on 14 September. Here is the list:
  • Ancient Egypt - 2430s BC goes to Paris Outsiders
  • Ancient Greece - 610s BC goes to Berlin Aquaholics
  • Ancient China - 10s BC goes to Brussels Mannekenfish
  • Italian Renaissance - 1470s goes to Manchester Sharks
  • French Revolution - 1790s goes to Active Company Antwerp
  • German Weimar Republic - 1920s goes to Copenhagen Pan Vandpolo
  • Post Stonewall USA - 1970s goes to Paris Aquatique
  • LGBTQIA+ Revolution - 1990s goes to Amsterdam Waterproof
  • Near Future - 2050s goes to London Orca

Let yourself be inspired by the era and the location of your decade. The objective is not to be historically accurate but to take this decade as a source of inspiration to create your outfits for the dinner!

Let your creativity flow and express your queerness!
Catwalk categories
In addition to the dress code, the participants will have the opportunity to earn additional points for their club by walking on the five following categories: 
  • Royalty - Be the queen, the king or any other royalty of your decade. Opulence, excess, luxury, yes. But here, attitude is the key. Command the room. Show in your walk that you are not a mere mortal but a royal...
  • Blue & Yellow - The Ukrainian LGBTI+ community is still facing the terrible consequences of the war. Express your support and solidarity interpreting your decade in blue and yellow.
  • Hairography - Each era is marked by a very distinctive hairstyle. Bring to the runway the most emblematic hairstyle of your decade. And twirl it, spin it, shake it, swing it, whip it...
  • Revealution - If a queer decade is not complete without a revolution, a queer ball is not complete without a revealution! Impress the crowd with an epic reveal.
  • Dynasty - Our clubs are our chosen families. Express all together your values, your spirit, and your style. Walk in sync, tell a story, vogue... Anything is possible! (One group per club, at least 4 people, 90 seconds max.)

Each category must be interpreted in reference to the queer decade attributed to your club as a dress code.
During the Queerstory ball, we will be raising funds to support the Ukrainian LGBTI+ community.
