Indigenous folks,” she said. “Because I’m light-skinned, it was easier to not say what my ethnicity was. And there wasn’t a lot of Indigenous drag queens at the time … I think one or two. And, usually, when they came on and performed, they were made fun of.” able to.”

“And then that just expanded into my regular life or my everyday life, a little bit more so.”

While her drag persona may take her outside herself, Misty Luxxx retains her Indigenous identity in her drag persona and performances.

“I’m always really excited about my name,” she said. “I’m Gitxsan. We’re from Gitanmaax. So Gitxsan means ‘people from the misty river.’ So I got my first name—Misty—from that, and Luxxx was given to me by my drag mother, Cedar.”

“I try to incorporate an Indigenous aspect to everything I

Fashion Week, Western Canada Fashion Week, Vancouver Fashion Week—even New York and Fiji.

“We recognize Indigenous designers. I’ve bought about five pieces from different designers. I’ve been waiting for a gig like this to showcase them.”

Cedar T said that the trio has been discussing what they’ll be performing at the Drag Brunch. She doesn’t give too much away, but the audience can expect a storytelling element woven through the drag numbers.

The Indigi-Hauz drag family is as excited to meet Yukoners as we are to see them perform.

Misty Luxxx has recently returned to drag, after a long hiatus. She was originally drawn to performing in early adulthood because she loved being onstage, even though it terrified her. Her willingness to overcome her fear of performing drag has paid off in other aspects of her life.

“Doing something new that terrified me,” she said. “So, I have social anxiety and generalized anxiety disorder, and as soon as I get into persona (at that point I was Felicia Pride), as soon as I got into Felicia, I no longer had those issues. So I was able to really step outside of myself and become a completely new person and explore new things outside of my norm, in ways I didn’t think I’d be do,” Misty explained. “If it’s not part of the music, it’s part of the beaded earrings, the lashes, the outfits that I’m wearing, or some form of Indigenous representation when I’m doing my performances.”

Similar to her drag daughters,

Cedar T took up drag in the last few years. However, she has always expressed her Two-Spirit identity.

“I think it started when I was very young. I just have a real affinity for feminine roles per se, from the colonial context or view on gender. I would play with girls, dress up as a girl … Even for powwow dance, I would gravitate towards the dance category of Women’s Fancy, and more recently I would dress up on Halloween and spend the whole month of October coming up with a look. In 2017, I was Avatar; and in 2018, I won first place—I was Mystique from X-Men—and then, from there, I just realized I had a knack for creativity.” Cedar T’s drag style reflects the polish she referred to earlier.

“In terms of fashion, from me, you can expect designers,” she said. “I love to collaborate with local designers who’ve also showcased their collections in Toronto

“I want to acknowledge Selene [Vakharia] at Yukon Pride for offering this platform,” Cedar T said. “For us to be able to showcase our art and our storytelling through this artform, we’re just so happy and excited.” ■

What’s Inside

On the Cover Events

Imagine that you’re on a summer holiday in the picturesque, coastal town of Portofino, Italy. You are sitting on a patio, surrounded by potted lemon and tangerine trees. As you take in the sweeping view of the Mediterranean Sea, you enjoya glass of aged scotch and a decadent slice of tiramisu. And not too far from you, a saxophonist is playing a slow-tempo jazz tune, accompanied by a singer who draws your eyes with her sultry look. You sit there, nonchalantly, pondering if you should make a move on her or if you should simply enjoy the lovely evening all to yourself … These are some images that come to mind when you inhale the decadent scent of Tobacco Nuit Atelier Cologne. The French luxury brand has been making fragrances since 2009 and in 2016 they were acquired by L’Oréal. Atelier Cologne currently offers 54 scents, each with its own unique scent profile. The brand is known for sourcing ingredients from all over the world and describes themselves as being a “French artisanal perfumery inspired by nature.”

In the case of Tobacco Nuit, the main ingredients are tobacco flower, Italian tangerine and labdanum (a fragrant oil produced from a flower that smells earthy and slightly sweet, with a hint of musk). But, contrary to its name, this scent smells nothing like tobacco.

While all Atelier scents are described as being gender-neutral, Tobacco Nuit has enough masculine touches to make it an ideal fragrance for a man. The scent of the tobacco flower is crisp, almost like a green apple, with some subtle undertones of a rumlike scent. Combined with Italian tangerine and labdanum, you get a scent that smells sort of like an old-fashioned cocktail garnished with edible flowers and infused with a musky spritz. The citrus softens the scent enough so that it could be worn by a woman, but the labdanum adds enough masculinity for a man to wear this with confidence.

Whether you are holidaying in the south of Italy, going out for

Clayton’s CAR CARE Tips

Brake Fluid

Regular brake fluid changes ensure that a car’s braking system operates safely and effectively. Modern braking systems use brake fluid to transfer the application of the brake pedal down to the front and rear brakes, to bring the vehicle to a stop. The fluid is usually silicone based, which does not compress, giving a solid pedal feel and an increased temperature rating. The downside to using this style of fluid is that it absorbs moisture from the air. Constant braking causes massive amounts of heat to be generated by the braking components, which is then transferred into the fluid. If there is moisture in the fluid, this will decrease the temperature rating of the fluid, and can result in a soft brake pedal and increased stopping distance. Most manufacturers recommend brake fluid changes every 2 years, regardless of kilometres travelled, but it may need to be changed more frequently if the vehicle is operated under abnormal conditions.
