Definitions

The central performance space at a ball — and the category built on walking it. You strut down like it's fashion week: straight-aways, poses, the look. Femme runway tends to stay clean and elegant, straight up and down with sharp poses and minimal antics; male runway leaves room for extra attitude, shade and stunts. It's couture cosplay with stakes — sell the fantasy from the moment you step off.
“She gives nothing but couture on that runway — every pose lands.”
