Definitions

1

Bizarre is the ballroom category where pretty is irrelevant and weird is the whole point. The brief: build a costume and silhouette so elaborate, so alien, so far from the human shape that the audience can't tell there's a person under there. Think otherworldly creatures, distorted proportions, avant-garde monsters. It's the scene's purest test of imagination and craft — strangeness is the currency, and the judges reward whoever travels furthest from looking like anybody.

“His Bizarre entry walked in on stilts with a face nobody could find — that's how you take the category.”
