A landmark visual record of New York's ballroom scene, Voguing and the House Ballroom Scene of New York City 1989–92 brings together photographer Chantal Regnault's intimate documentation of one of the most influential underground cultures of the late twentieth century.

Photographed between 1989 and 1992, the book captures the energy, creativity and self-invention of ballroom culture at a pivotal moment in its history. From extravagant competitions and voguing battles to behind-the-scenes portraits of members of legendary houses including Xtravaganza, LaBeija and Ninja, Regnault's images offer a rare insider perspective on a community that reshaped fashion, music and contemporary visual culture.

Published by Soul Jazz Books, this expanded edition combines photography, archival material and first-hand accounts to create one of the most comprehensive studies of ballroom culture available in print. Essential for those interested in fashion, nightlife, queer history and subcultural movements.
