Nymphia Wind, a Taiwanese-American drag performer and dressmaker, covers the July 2024 issue of Vogue Taiwan [IG], looking every part the fashion drama queen. In 2024, Wind was crowned the winner of season 16 of RuPaul's Drag Race, becoming the first East Asian winner.

Nymphia Wind is the stage name of Leo Tsao, a Taiwanese-American drag performer and dressmaker. The Internet “went crazy” on April 20, 2024, when Nifeiya broke the Asian curse and became the second Asian champion of RuPaul's Drag Race in 13 years.

A month later, the talent was performing at Twiwan’s presidential palace. Forbes followed, listing Nifeiya as "Asia's Outstanding Youth Under 30". Reuters wrote that Nymphia Wind is Taiwan’s unofficial diplomat.

Vogue Taiwan presents a most interesting interview about the talent Nymphia Wind, written by Nicole Lee. This paragraph is not only excellent writing by every measure. Lee also enchants with a deeply personal portrait.

When you meet Nifeiya in person, you will find that what his documentary "Two-Faced Cao Leo" said is absolutely correct - he is a unique existence with two sides. When not in disguise, he is Cao Leo (Cao Mihuan is his real name) who is introverted, cherishes words like gold, speaks slowly, is lazy and casual, and often closes his eyes to rest. After cross-dressing, he will transform into Nefeiya, the "Banana Buddha" who is good at singing and dancing, has sharp eyes, is funny, humorous and outgoing. These two personalities are him, as he said: "The simplest description of Cao Leo and Nifeiya is extroversion and introversion, spirit and death."
