A Little Vogue History
Voguing is a dance that imitates the poses hit by models in fashion magazines and on the runway. It was created by African-American and Latino members of the LGBTQ community that created an underground subculture. Itâs a modern house dance that originated in the 80s. It stems from the Harlem ballroom scene in the 1960s. Moreover, it is linked to Willaim Dorsey Swann, an enslaved man who hosted 19th-century drag balls.
The legendary singer Madonna highlighted the dance and culture in her video for her 1990 hit song, âVogue.â The dance was also spotlighted in the documentary Paris is Burning the same year.
