It’s midday on Friday at Glastonbury – a fairly early call time for a nocturnal drag superstar, but Bimini is already putting the world to rights. The DJ, musician, model, podcaster, author and activist (to name just a few of their other job titles) is taking to the stage for the first of three Guardian Live Q&As this weekend, interviewed by journalist Zoe Williams. And don’t worry, all your important style conundrums are being answered: “Crocs, yes or no?”

“Yeah!” Bimini enthuses. “They’re comfortable footwear at a festival.” It’s unclear whether they’ve packed any for later on, as they kick their heel into the air, revealing 16-in PVC stilettos. The 2025 festival style trend? “Skimpy,” they say, without missing a beat (they’re wearing a union jack corset and teensy leather hot pants).
