EVAN CLAYTON 2026 COLLECTION - PHYLLIS

EVAN CLAYTON is proud to unveil his latest collection, PHYLLIS, at The Penthouse Gentleman’s Club on October 30th. Conceived as a love letter to family, both chosen and blood, PHYLLIS is an eclectic, eccentric, and strangely glamorous study in identity and connection. The collection is emotive and honest, weaving personal memory with cultural touchstones to create a fashion story unlike any other.

The references for Clayton’s 16th collection span across time and influence, from historical weaponized femininity to the surreal visions of Tim Burton and the graphic nostalgia of Batman: The Animated Series. A mishmash of decades, including the 1940s, 1960s, and 1980s, collide with Thierry Mugler’s dramatic glamour, anecdotes from trans history, and tender reflections on the designer’s grandmother. The result is a collection that embraces contradiction while celebrating individuality.

DOORS 7 PM
FASHION SHOW 8 PM
PERFORMANCES 9 PM

A stellar lineup of performers will amplify the show’s narrative, featuring Icesis Couture (winner of Canada’s Drag Race Season 2), Venus (winner of Canada’s Drag Race Season 4), The Girlfriend Experience, Kendall Gender, Bliss, Dee Blew, and Isabella.

Phyllis also marks a new high point in Evan Clayton’s international presence. In recent years, his creations have been worn by the likes of Shay Mitchell on the cover of FASHION Magazine, Candice Swanepoel, Kaitlyn Santa Juana, Momona Tamada, Rêve, Carly Rae Jepsen, Lana Ja’Rae, Shea Couleé, and stars of Canada’s Drag Race including Priyanka, Ilona Verley, Juice Boxx, Kendall Gender, Gia Metric, Vivian Vanderpuss, Miss Fiercalicious, and Jimbo, as well as Marina Summers of Drag Race Philippines.
