The new Six West End cast will have the double strap boots! US has them for Aragon, and Parr and 1-2 alts in each cast. Also Nikki seems to have the lower heels introduced in the UKT recently as an alternative to flats when the queens can't wear the high heels.
Seriously cant wait to see them I've been wanting to see UK double strap boots for years. (Also this style was one of my game update surprise additions already)

Costume Updates: 2023 West End Cast Change
A few notes before I start: - Kayleigh McKnight (Seymour) is currently injured. Gabriella Stylianou (alt A/S) is temporarily performing in her place, including in the preview footage. - As a general rule of thumb, Six has slowly been standardizing the costumes for both US and UK. Most of that has been changes to the UK system/style to make them more in line with the US changes initially made for Broadway (a few changes have made their way to the US from the UK though). There's been a steady rollout of updates over the period post-lockdowns, but with this cast change most of the major holdouts have been changed at once. I'll get to that in a moment. - Obviously it's very early in the run and we haven't seen all the costumes yet, particularly for alts. I'll continue to update as we do.

Costumes (credits below) - Nikki Bentley's Aragon costume has had a few construction changes to be more in line with the US costumes. No major design differences, though. Not sure on maker yet. - Thảo Therése Nguyễn has the darker green which has been standardized for the last few UK casts. Not sure on maker yet. - Gabriella was previously with Norwegian Cruise Lines as part of Bliss 2.0, but as expected she did get a new costume. Her corset is in the US style/design rather than the UK style (info here, here). I'm not sure who made it and very much wondering if the corset only could be a US-make, but don't have enough information yet to know if that could be the case. I'm also waiting to see what Kayleigh's looks like. - Reca Oakley (Cleves) is another former NCL queen, but as expected she also did get a new costume. It was made by Paul Aspinall. - Inez Budd's Howard skirt has been changed to the US-style construction. This has smaller panels (rather than the old NCL/UK style; post here). However, unlike the US skirts, the vertical stud lines still go all the way to the bottom hem. Per usual, it was made by Ella Dancewear. - Janiq Charles is a standard Parr style, made by Ashleigh Cherry Costumes per usual. - Otherwise, the costumes seem to be in line with all recent UK standardization. - The alts' costumes should match the changes made for these principals.
Wigs/HMU - Nikki Bentley has an auburn tone with a side part and doesn't seem to have bleached/ombre highlights. Curled bob, a little longer than some we've seen in the past. It's a full wig. - Thảo has dark roots with a silvery-toned bleached wig. It's a long wig rather than some of the recent bobs. It's a full wig. - Gabriella has a side part and darker, honey blonde tone. It's pretty mid-range for Seymour wigs but is shorter than some of the recent UK. It's a full wig. - Janiq Charles has the curls pulled over to the side. It's a full wig. - Otherwise, the principal wigs are pretty standard. - No pictures of Naomi Alade in costume yet, but I am expecting her to have braids for all or most of her roles. - We've also seen quite a bit of the makeup so far, which I'll make a post about in the coming days.
Boots @lightleckrereins already made posts about a lot of this (here, here) but for easy access: - The cast seems to be standardized to a shorter heel than prior casts, like the shorter heel Chlöe Hart and Natalie Pilkington both got later in the 22-23 UK Tour run. - They've introduced the double height boots that the US productions have had for a few years now (explanation of the difference here). However, they're still sticking to the regular UK-style boot body with crystals rather than switching to the US-style lattice and studs. Right now it looks like Nikki Bentley (Aragon) and Janiq Charles (Parr) have the double height, while Reca Oakley (Cleves) has the regular Cleves thigh highs and everyone else seems to have regular single height. Of course, that post includes Gabriella Stylianou rather than Kayleigh McKnight so no good look at Kayleigh or other alts yet. - All the boots seem to have interchangeable straps. We first saw these with the US and then UK alts - it allows them to have one pair of boots with a monochrome silver heel and then just trade out their straps depending on which costume they're wearing. This is the first time we've seen that for principals; Sofia talked more about why this change might be happening in the post I linked at the start of this section.
Alt costumes - We've seen a silver alt costume in progress that should be for Meg Dixon-Brasil. (Made by Paul Aspinall per usual) - We've also seen part of a pink alt costume. It could feasibly be either Natalie Pilkington's or it could be one for Hannah Lowther. Judging from Hannah's makeup, she does seem to have their standard makeup pieces for pink alt. - Naomi Alade has orange palette and glitter, so she presumably has the orange alt costume. - We still don't know what costume Natalie Pilkington will have. She has her old principal Seymour/Parr and pink alt system from the 2022-23 UK Tour, and during the 2021-22 UK Tour she had a black alt costume that was a mishmash of old and new pieces. I'm expecting that she'll wear a black alt costume (either entirely or mostly new), but it's possible that she reuses her old pink alt instead (it has been a while since she's worn black alt and most of it was already old). I talked in more depth about some of those possibilities here.

Hannah Lowther’s story looks like she has Black alt (old design) or Seymour boots, I’m assuming this is just for rehearsal purposes, right?
Those are rehearsal boots. In the usual costume timeline UK queens get their boots between the second and third week of rehearsals as the rhinestones are finished. But they need to start wearing heels from day one for a few reasons. Including to get used to the height, to build up the strenght needed to wear the boots regularly, so they can learn the choreo taking into account the different step lenght and measure moves with the heels. Basically same reason they wear skirts, peplums and corsets, and have the LIW plattform in the rehearsal room. Simulating stage conditions as much as possible makes it possible for the cast to be better prepared.
But back to boots. Since the queen's boots are not finished by the time they start rehearsals they wear whatever fits best from retired boots. By now there are many that are still in good condition so its very likely they can find something that fits. During the past week the WE queens have posted many of them in their instagram stories and I've actually been trying to figure out who has what. Half out of curiosity half because some interesting combinations are happening.
So far:
Nikki Bentley: an Aragon pair
Thao Therese Nguyen: a pair with the original diamond design that I think is Howard
Reca Oakley: a pair with one strap that doesnt look like the six LaDuca boots
Inez Budd: a boleyn pair
Gabriella Stylianou: a cleves pair
Naomi Alade: a pair with the original diamond design in what looks like light blue rhinestones (a design that has never been used and has me incredibly curious)
Hannah Lowter: a Seymour pair
Nothing from Kayleigh McKnight, Janiq Charles, Meg Dixon-Brasil or Natalie Pilkington. I assume Natalie is wearing one of her old pairs. And on another story a few other boots were visible inside drawers including roxanne's pink alt boots, one set with silver heels that could be one of the 2022-23 UKT alt boots or a teal pair, a pair that doesnt seem to have rhinestones (I assume the one reca wears) and two I couldn't identify which rounds up the cast.

Gabriella and Naomi, Hannah, Thao.

Reca and Nikki, Inez, some of the drawers where the silver heel pair, Roxanne's boots and the Cleves pair Gabriella has are stored, another two pairs were under the table.
So a very random looking mix. I think its funny Boleyn and Howard are currently inverted and am very curious about the boots Naomi is wearing.
But tbh I am more excited to see the new boots that should start appearing this week

Oh hi! so what kind of boots do the queens use? I've only seen them described as boots but there's different types of boots yk?
They're custom La Duca boots. La Duca makes boots specifically for use in theatre and dance, so they're safer and more supportive for the queens when they're doing the intensive dance and show schedule. In terms of style, everyone gets a primary pair of black lace ups with a heel and platform. However, some of the queens have also worn a "flat" pair, which is similarly black lace-up with a small platform but basically non-existent heel, mostly used/worn when a queen is recovering from an injury. There's also been some other stylistic range in the past - they started getting the custom La Ducas in late 2019, but casts prior to that had had a range of different store-bought boots.
If you're curious about different design details, I have a ton of posts in the #six boots tag!

This was kind of fun, I'm sure I'll do another one at some point because I left out a lot of characters that I wanted to draw.

Lmao man what do you have against Angel's legs. First what Alastor did to him in the body swap story, now the clip with Lucifer. It's very funny
I don't know, but whatever it is, it's not as aggressive as the vendetta I have against the integrity of Alastor's skull, because I think I've given that guy no less than four head injuries at this point across my fics, ehehe.
Look, Angel Dust just has nice legs. In a very, y'know. "It would be unfortunate if something were to happen to them" kind of way!
