Apart from these four queens, the RuPaul's Drag Race finale carpet will be graced by the 10 eliminated queens, the judges, and some guest queens from the previous seasons. The red carpet is blue this time because of the season's splashy theme. Lisa Minelli, the coveted singer, actor, and dancer, is also to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award on the finale episode.

Ahead of the awaited RuPaul's Drag Race finale, the red carpet looks of all the queens are out, and curious fans couldn't wait to see them.

1) Lucky Starzzz

Lucky Starzzz was the first one to get eliminated. That is unfortunate because the type of look she came with in the finale tells fans that she would have been a treat to see if she sustained through the season. She wore a black velvet gown that resembled the universe with a colourful ring that had the stars and planets on it.

2) Joella

Joella recreated her quilted runway theme in her finale look. She wore a pink cushiony bodycon dress paired with black lace and an extravagant hand fan to go with it. The look is chic and camp.

Kori's dramatic look consisted of a deep pink gown that was structured on top and broke into a structured mermaid cut on the bottom. It was laced with black shimmer cut-outs throughout, giving it more structure. She wore her hair tall and simple and let the dress do the shining.

Arrietty took Michele's comments about her makeup looking like it was out of the Cats movie, quite literally. She did a Doja Cat like prosthetic cat face, with a red gown underneath. The gown had a structured top that ran over her head.
