Like most of us, Conor McKenzie is stuck at home with too much time on his hands and a fridge full of temptation. So what’s a proper queen to do?

Make multiple haute couture outfits out of a blanket and serve up some self-isolation glamor.

McKenzie’s Facebook video – and the second fashion show because of course there was an encore – have quickly spread around the gay internet.

“Who knew a blanket could be so chic?” he posted on the second video. “On a serious note though, I’ve had so much fun playing around creating these looks. It’s been a great distraction for me and I’m so happy it’s made so many of you smile during this difficult time.”
