― Ali Smith, The Whole Story and Other Stories

Hawaii, 1950s

it gets complicated okay

so there’s this jacket:

also worn by Brian

AND Roger

Now, the shirt John’s wearing there:

is also worn by Roger

AND Freddie ( i really assume most of these clothes are Freddie’s ‘cause you know he dressed the rest of the band)

Freddie and Brian share the little star shirt Freddie wears a lot (and that necklace too??):

Now notice the red & black jacket Brian’s wearing there…

John wears it

AND Roger (it seems to be Roger’s actually, he wears it the most)

Roger and John share this ugly arrow shirt:

Freddie and Roger share the flowery yellow jacket

AND, John and Freddie share the bike shirt:

Freddie and John casually switching shirts in the middle of a recording session:

Brian and Roger sharing this jacket:

Freddie and brian sharing this necklace, also featuring the jacket again:

This red and black blazer worn by Roger; there was an identical blue and black one too, either they were both Roger’s and John borrowed it, or the blue and black one was actually John’s and Roger borrowed it:

John wearing a Puma sweatsuit in March 1984 in Japan on the promo tour for “The Works”.

You can see that jacket in the black and white photos ON Roger in the last photo. He also wears it when Crystal is wearing the Puma sweatshirt.

Freddie and Massimo Bonelli in Milan in September 1984. Queen still on tour promoting “The Works”, Bonelli had arranged a press conference in a garden and it was rainy out. (You’ll need to translate the article in your browser but it’s a fun read)

Freddie at Garden Lodge with Jim in 1986. Freddie still lived in Munich but sent Jim an invite to live at Garden Lodge before he got there because he accidentally got Jim kicked out of his boarding flat. Fred was ringing in at all hours and the landlady didn’t like it and kicked Jim out (as says Jim in his book, “Mercury and Me”, I haven’t a link to the exact excerpt though, soz). The two hadn’t been dating long yet.

And there you have it!! The blue Puma sweats!

🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride Month 2023! 👑

Here's Freddie in all his splendour 💖 It's been a while since I wanted to draw him in his arrow jacket and this was the perfect occasion, also adding some extra colors to represent the rainbow flag! 🏳️‍🌈💜💖💕💜💖💕

Remember that Pride Month is the occasion to LEARN and get informed about what's happening in the world, to actively support LGBTQ+ associations and small businesses, to speak against homotransphobic and racist laws that threaten people because of their orientation, skin color and self-expression. LGBTQ+ lives are always in danger and during Pride month we want our voices to be heard and respected 🙏🏻💕💖

So, if you love Freddie, be always aware that you love a romantic gay Parsi boy who has always seeked stable love and comfort in a time where it was only a mirage for gay men, and always tried to be himself with pride.
