Call it melodramatic or yet startlingly histrionic but for Erros, the obsidian eventide on 12.21.12 was certainly a spine-tingling and absolutely querulous late evening of what most people randomly perceived to be the end of mother earth's civilization. Even as the crew were hurriedly hauling in tons of metals in bags and boxes of battle gears, helmets and armors( to the runway's backstage) of what is believed to be his most important collection to date, and as his choice models started coming in to start the long process of last minute fittings, make up and hair mending, this masterly and accomplished designer still feels franticly edgy and uprightly fretful of what's going to unfold the rest of this compelling evening. What added to the anxiety was that most show goers came in late, probably hesitant to get out of their homes anticipating a catastrophic end of the day, but when they started coming in, they came in droves ~ causing a snag jam at the bar's box office, which eventually the bar management had to regrettably intervened and a lot more had to be turned down as every inch of the watering hole's capacity were filled to the brim. And as much as Erros tried to organize every aspect of this runway/show's production, initially, everything seems in total chaos - billowing skivvies and corsets, misplaced frills and trimmings or ill-fitting wing-tips and loafers, and even dire last minute changes on the models' order of appearances.. Astonishingly in the end, and rip-roaring minutes before the curtain dropped before the strike of twelve,everything throw in together like pods of an unerring pea ...and as they say.. the rest is Erros' history.!!!!..................................................................................................................................................................................” A pleasant evening to all of you...and I would like to thank you all for being here with me tonight, as we celebrate the unveiling of my newest collection, we fondly called “ The Legends” collection. And as you all know, today marks the beginning of a new Mayan calendar, of which many soothsayers on earth predicted to be the end of the world, but many wise men also said to be an era of hope,- a new beginning, and just like New Year's Day – should be celebrated with joyful anticipation. But isn't it ironic for me to celebrate this glorious day with a collection about war – and the beauty of war in particular. Well, as Aristotle, the great philosopher once said “ We make war that we may live in peace.” and the only way to escape war is to be in it!! I therefore leave it up to you, my dear audience to decide amongst yourself if I have given justice to this parody as I present to you the first part of my latest work----->” Legends: the Battleground!!!!”
