Look, I told you this season of “Killing Eve” was going to be bananas, and has it not been legit BANANAS? One of the other things that has been fascinating to watch is how gay it has become. And we’re not just talking the subtext, but the full-on maintext. The season started with Villanelle’s wedding to another woman. I mean, sure it all went awry. But, uh, it started with a gay wedding! And then there’s (look away now if you haven’t watched) That Kiss. Sure, some can read all of this same-sex subtext as queer baiting. But I think and hope it is building to something more complex and interesting. Villanelle’s lust for the ladies (to be as cliché as possible about it) has become more than canon. And now the question remains what does Eve want from all of this.
But, while we wait to see if Eve figures out her shit, can we talk about Villanelle’s high-fashion butch outfits this season? Like, all the yeses to all of this.
Like her wedding tux.
Like how she’s sitting (plus I see you, wrist cuff).
Like the way she effortlessly tops Eve in this suit.
Like (look away now, you know who you are) That Kiss.
Like I was saying, bananas. And, bananas is good.

A couple consisting of butch Vilanelle and femme Vilanelle would be super hot
I’d watch a Vilanelle spin-off in a second
But Sandra Oh, her perfect foil, has that blue steel core.
Even making DimSum, she was compelling & magnetic.
