TAIPEI, Taiwan — From the moment she stepped onto the stage of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Nymphia Wind has embraced the color yellow not just as a fashion choice but as part of her identity.
For that first appearance, she stacked pairs of yellow sunglasses on her tall wig and wore a yellow overcoat, under which she concealed a stuffed plush banana at her crotch. Walking onto the stage, she performed a comedic slip after stepping on a banana peel. Since then, bananas have become her trademark and she has worn yellow more than any other color.
