After training in the Lette Association, the first BeV-Design fashion shows were in 1987 in SchwuZ and in front of the legendary Café Swing on Nollendorfplatz . This was followed by shows at the OFF-Line fashion fair (Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt aM) up to “The Costume '97” in Berlin, Rostock and Hamburg. The inventions should be emphasized: Slip-ties (connection of tie and slip or trousers, skirt or just vest), hanger over the croissant, pink triangle shirt . The goal was Tunten to create his own fashion without "bust size", wearable for him, her and those in between.

In 1988 BeV and Ichgola Androgyn opened the " Drag Store" for tunic fashion and costumes as well as the company "D-Kor" (decorations for large events such as Westbam-Party and Rias TV studio for "High Live" with his Friend Lutz Wolgram, who died of AIDS in 1994).

BeV also designed the poster “Demo against § 175” with graphic designer Jörg Garbe. 1991 began with an exhibition of drawings in the Lou Lou Lazard gallery, then TV moderations for Praunheim's TV programs “Schrill, Schrä, Schwul” on FAB and for the follow-up program “Vice-versa” by the production company cineplus also in the reverse TV editorial office .

The film "Love, Jealousy and Revenge" by Michael Brynntrup with BeV in the double leading role premiered at the Berlinale in 1991 and received awards at several film festivals. In 1993 Corny Littmann engaged the designer in Schmidt-Tivoli Hamburg for the musical " Cabaret " with Ernie Reinhardt (Lilo Wanders) as Miss Schneider. In August, BeV was part of the “NDR Schmidt Show” on the subject of travesty with Romy Haag and Gordy with models and “fashion for the socially disadvantaged” . Customers also became Claudia Roth , Désirée Nick , the original sound pirates and Joanne “Yavahn” Thomas for their music video “Everybody be somebody” (Ruffneck) with many Berlin queens on skates and costumes from BeV-Design.

For big spender berlin the BeV and the Ovo (the two deliberately called themselves in this way) organized “Fashion for AIDS 1994” in the Volksbühne Berlin with many designers and over 50 volunteer models from various agencies. Hildegard Knef received special attention as a star guest. In the following year “Walk for Life” in the summer and “Staying alive” on World AIDS Day. Tita von Hardenberg shot a comprehensive report about the AIDS hospice situation in the 90s with the two “cabaret tunes” for TIP-TV. In the Red Salon of the Volksbühne they performed weekly as sisters with the titles “The crying has an end” and “HIV á la carte”.

For one year from May 2000, BeV was the “host” of the trans-lesbian gay party “Oz-queerwonderworld” (see The Wizard of Oz (1939) : “Friends of Dorothy” was once a code word for homosexuals). The monthly parties had matching motto shows such as “Tunten im Meer” or “Gays in Space” in the BKA-Luftschloß tents on Schloßplatz (Berlin) , where the 2001 transgender festival “Wigstöckel” was also celebrated. BeV's manager also looked after Shequida Ryzell, Ingrid Caven and Nina Hagen and is the producer of the Teddy Awards. There are over 50 television reports on the BeV events as well as several TV portraits.
