A pirate wench and a posh drag queen, a conch shell, a vintage PanAm flight attendant and a giant Key lime wedge all dropped into 2022 on New Year’s Eve in Key West.
Duval Street featured parties at all sorts of venues, including Sloppy Joe’s Bar and Bourbon Street Pub, where the legendary female impersonator Sushi descended from a second-floor balcony in a red high-heeled shoe.
In the hours leading up to midnight, several other performers entertained the masses on a stage erected on Duval Street.
Upon landing safely, Sushi welcomed the crowd to 2022 while wearing an incredible gown of her creation that took the gifted seamstress and costume designer about 60 hours to create, Sushi told the Keys Weekly.
