Ana Locking, born Ana González Rodríguez,[1] is a Spanish fashion designer, businesswoman, photographer and judge on Drag Race España.
Biography[]
In 1997, Ana Gonzalez founded with Óscar Benito, Locking Shocking, a ready-to-wear label claiming to maintain "strong ties with other artistic disciplines". The team received accolades: in 2003, the young designer's Premio L'Oreal and in 2004, from the Spanish Marie Claire, a Gran Prix de la moda. Their partnership lasted until 2007, when the label disappeared further to the decision of their business partner, Humana Cultura y Comunicación.
In 2008 she launched alone a new ready-to-wear label, Ana Locking, which also received accolades: in 2008, the Premio L'Oréal and in 2009, she was awarded by Cosmopolitan magazine as the best designer of the year, where she was recognized for the quality of her creations, her methodical work system and her presence throughout the process of each of the pieces she designs, with a young and current style.
At the end of 2020, she won the 2020 National Fashion Design Award for "combining fashion design and social pulse, connecting with contemporary artistic movements and practices. She expands the canons of beauty and reflects the gender issue and the diversity of being. In addition, her work as a teacher of the new generations and the coherence and continuity of her work are valued".[3]

Trivia[]
- In 2018, she designed a gala dinner dress for Letizia Ortiz, the Queen of Spain, that was highly praised by fashion critics.
- In 2020, Locking was diagnosed with breast cancer, a few days later she underwent surgery and started radiotherapy. In July 2020, it was confirmed that she was cured.[4]
- Ana was not accurately informed about the runway category for the fourth episode of Drag Race España (Season 4), La Noche de las 1000 Ana Lockings, until Supremme announced it during the filming of the episode.[5]
- She was originally told that the category for that episode was La Noche de las 1000 Ana Obregón. This explains why she initially seemed unfazed when Supremme was naming the category until she specifically mentioned "Lockings" rather than "Obregón".[6]
- With Le Cocó impersonating her on Season 4's Snatch Game, Ana became the fifth Drag Race judge to be a Snatch Game character, following RuPaul (by Jessica Wild, Trixie Mattel and Diamante Merybrown), Michelle Visage (by Sharon Needles), Ts Madison (by Silky Nutmeg Ganache) and Nikkie Plessen (by Vivaldi).
