Drag Artist Alexis Saint-Pete Makes History with VICKISARGE Capsule Collection at London Fashion Week
READ TIME: 3 MIN.
Alexis Saint-Pete, renowned for her dynamic presence on Drag Race UK Series 5, has taken a significant step in both her career and LGBTQ+ visibility in fashion by launching a capsule jewellery collection with celebrated British brand VICKISARGE. The debut took place during London Fashion Week in September 2025, drawing acclaim from industry insiders and the LGBTQ+ community alike for its innovation and representation.
The collaboration is part of VICKISARGE’s 40th anniversary celebration, which invited creative collaborators from diverse backgrounds to co-create milestone collections. Alexis’s capsule not only marks a turning point for the brand but also cements her legacy as the first drag queen to launch a jewellery line at London Fashion Week—a major stride for drag representation in high fashion.
Alexis Saint-Pete’s creative vision is at the heart of the capsule’s design language. Speaking to Attitude, Alexis explained, “My drag isn’t your typical drag—I don’t usually go for sparkly, traditional earrings. My style is sharp, sexy, sleek, and a little futuristic, and I wanted to capture that in the collection. The designs reflect that edge: bold, clean, and modern, but still full of attitude”.
Inspired by iconic fashion houses such as MUGLER and BVLGARI, Alexis aimed to create pieces that are both luxurious and accessible, blending timeless appeal with contemporary aesthetics. “The inspiration leaned towards the future: metallic, sleek, wearable pieces that feel timeless but also modern. I wanted it to feel like me, so that it’s not just luxurious but also grounded and strong. The idea was to create something that anyone could wear and feel powerful!”.
The capsule includes striking pieces such as the Northern Ring, Pirouette Earrings, Showgirl Ring, Compass Bangle, and Elevé Ear Cuffs, each reflecting Alexis’s unique aesthetic while remaining versatile for wearers of all genders.
One of the standout items in the collection is the “gag ball” Bond Choker—a bold, playful, and provocative piece that exemplifies Alexis’s philosophy of turning the cheeky into the chic. “If you’re going to gag, why not gag in style? It’s playful, provocative, and a little outrageous, which, for me, is the essence of drag. It turns something cheeky into something elevated, and that mix is exactly what excites me about this collaboration,” Alexis shared.
For Alexis, this partnership with VICKISARGE is more than a business venture; it is a statement of empowerment and creative agency for drag artists. “Drag artists are self-made – we are directors, hair stylists, makeup artists, costume designers, and performers – all in one. That means when we collaborate with fashion, it’s always going to be creative, different, and unexpected. Drag queens are some of the most inventive people in the world, and I think it’s about time we take over fashion and show how much we can bring to the industry,” she told Attitude.
Alexis’s historic launch is emblematic of broader shifts within the fashion industry, where drag artists and other LGBTQ+ creatives are increasingly recognized as trendsetters and collaborators in major design houses and brands. The VICKISARGE & Friends Alexis Saint-Pete capsule not only elevates Alexis’s profile but also signals a more inclusive and representative direction for high fashion, where diverse identities are celebrated, and creative boundaries continually expanded.
London Fashion Week 2025 has thus become a platform not just for showcasing new styles but for challenging conventions and expanding the narrative of who gets to be at the cutting edge of fashion. As Alexis Saint-Pete continues to break new ground, her achievements resonate far beyond the runway, inspiring the next generation of LGBTQ+ artists to claim their space in every facet of creative industry.
The VICKISARGE & Friends Alexis Saint-Pete capsule collection is available through the VICKISARGE website and selected stockists, featuring a mix of rings, earrings, bracelets, and ear cuffs. Each piece is designed and handmade in London, reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality and the collaborative ethos behind this landmark partnership.
As fashion continues to evolve, Alexis Saint-Pete’s collaboration with VICKISARGE stands as a testament to the power of visibility, creativity, and the enduring impact of drag on mainstream culture. The collection not only celebrates individuality and self-expression but also marks a significant step forward for LGBTQ+ representation in the world of luxury design.
