THEATRICALITY IS THE NAME OF ERROS' GAME!!!


Erros may not be conscious of it but metro fashion has credited him with bringing drama and extravagance to its fledging insular catwalk shows. Admittedly, the emotional power and raw energy of his provocative fashion shows and his tendency to juxtapose strength with fragility in his collections, has been largely inspired by two of his favored and admired designers of all time, the late Alexander McQueen and “ l'enfant terrible of English fashion” John Galliano. “ McQueen developed a reputation for controversy and shock tactics for his lavish and quite unconventional runway shows: a recreation of a shipwreck or a human chess game for his spring collections and his fall 2006 “Widows of Culloden,” which featured a life-sized hologram of supermodel Kate Moss in yards of rippling fabric.” he echoed, “ and John's often spectacular shows are inspired by history and his own travels around the world – everything from ancient Egypt to Masai tribesmen and 18th century equestrians, and his love of costume and drama(which may have put him on hot waters lately) thrilled fashion insiders at the end of each runway show by taking to the catwalk , always in an outrageous costume.” Certainly, with the company of such fine young fashion genius, Erros has been slowly gaining esteemed reputation of putting together intricately orchestrated couture exposition, adding a sense of fantasy and rebellion that often shocked and surprised audiences. The 'Myths and Legends' series brought forth new and innovative bestowal of such well loved classics as the Greek/Roman mythology made widely popular lately with on line gaming and PS3 games. His two separate renditions of Richard de Chazal's erotic men's calendar series, breathed life into each lunar zodiac sign's unfettered imagination that seemed to run almost out of control, revealing the male form with consummate art and grace. And of late, although he has not had the opportunity to travel and experience any exotic 'Middle East' countries, he believably escorted his jam packed BU patrons to a discombobulate realm of “ Haram” with such fiduciary and color able storytelling, and superb theatrical display of middle eastern audio-visual spectacle only he could pull through. Unquestionably, with him, ostentatious or meretricious may be an understatement, but the quality and capacity to shock was always liable to leave audiences for an Erroscollection show in a state of almost painfully thrilled apprehension as to what they might expect to see coming down the runway.
