"The Whoriental Festival at Gretchen had many amazing performances and highlights, but one of the biggest one was the Kiki Ball hosted by German Overseer Parisa Juicy. It was the second edition of this ball and I think creating a special ball to empower ballroom participants from the SWANA region is a wonderful idea, especially since I felt they equally embraced people from several more cultures around the world that might not have their own spotlight on them."
"The Vogue Femme category was also a big highlight, the teams of three structure created an exciting dynamic that made it really stand out. I certainly took the most fun action shots here in quite a while. Shout out to everyone who vogued their asses off here - and congrats to Misi you were the break-out star for me this evening!"
"With this concept, the ball had indeed a different vibe and aesthetic and I was so here for it! Thanks to Parisa for creating this space and also inviting me into it - it's greatly appreciated! I hope my photos do the ball justice! But enough of the yapping, here come my photo set for you. As always: Ballroom performers and organizers are welcome to download and post their photos. A tag to @iheartberlin is greatly appreciated if you post them."
Last month's Whoriental Festival at Gretchen included the second edition of the Kiki Ball hosted by German Overseer Parisa Juicy. The ball aimed to empower ballroom participants from the SWANA region while welcoming performers from diverse cultures worldwide. Gretchen provided effective lighting and setup that enhanced the ball's aesthetic. Key categories—Face, Realness, and Vogue Femme—delivered strong storytelling, inventive family picnic-themed Realness interpretations, and energetic team-based Vogue Femme battles. Performers received praise for powerful voguing and a breakout performance by Misi. Photos from the event are available for performers and organizers to download and share with proper tagging.
