" Couture is my natural high" says EZRA SANTOS by the way of explaining his soft aesthetics at the New York Couture 2011.
It must have been exhilarating, after his previous successful solo show in Dubai, few months ago.
" Fab" was a phrase deployed among the fashion press and critics alike. NYC, occupies a curious position in global syle and trend, garnering lots of attention for the creativity... bursting from day one.
Ezra Santos' couture collection translates into his signature aesthetics with his intricately embellished dresses, a froth of detailed embroidery over nude tulle that dictates luxe and exuberance.
His source of inspiration are varied, with his latest collection's theme from the Far East to Africa, as it whizzed past, evoke the essence of haute couture, refreshingly old school. It was as if Santos wanted to prove that art is magic in details, craftsmanship in full control and sensibilities married with senses.
Ezra Santos' works revealed poetry and imagination, combining unthinkable african hats in organic ropes with the revolutionized butterfly sleeves. Done in satin duchess, his sartorial blouses and slim gathered tulle pants were exquisite traditional- meets- contemporary chic pieces.
Crystallized Swarovski elements in unrivalled brilliance, feathers and pearls in different sizes
provided the perfect eye- catching adornments.
Totally involved with his works and thoroughly in control, Ezra Santos' romance in the runway is surely a blessing...time will tell, but one thing is certain: he's got the HAUTE!
