"Fashionistas Invade Top Ten List of Vegas Shows”
Eroticism, fetish and fantasy combine for one of Las Vegas’ Best

Las Vegas, NV – The Fashionistas, John Stagliano’s erotically-charged tale of fetish and fantasy, has been chosen as one of “Las Vegas’ 10 Best Shows,” by the Las Vegas Review Journal. This marks the first ever appearance for a show of this kind on The R-J’s 10 Best List, which beat out such mainstream high-budget productions as Celine Dion’s “A New Day.”

"Producing a live show like this has been a dream of mine for more than twenty years. It's an honor to have such prestigious recognition,” said Stagliano. “We could not have done it without the talents of our amazing cast and crew who bring the story to life on stage night after night.”

“Fashionistas” also was picked by the staff of the Review Journal as having the Best Choreography of any Vegas show.

Since opening in October 2004, Fashionistas has drawn rave reviews.

“What happens when you have the best costume designer, Jose Luis Vinas, best costume maker, Peiter Grove, best choreographers, Enrique Lugo and Nick Navarro, the best director/producer, John Stagliano... one of the most unusual and successful shows in town... The Fashionistas!”

--- Breck Wall in CALLBACK NEWS.

“This is a giant step forward for Vegas in terms of dance. It is magnificent. The level of dancing and the choreography is unbelievable. It is incredibly good. It is so classy and sexy”

-- Robin Leach

THE FASHIONISTAS is a “boy meets girl story told in dance, set to profane industrial music, where boy is seduced by sadomasochistic imagery and you’re not sure if the girl will end up with the boy or the other girl.”

-- Mike Weatherford, LAS VEGAS REVIEW JOURNAL

Utilizing music from Evanescence, Madonna, Tool, Lords of Acid, Crystal Method, and Led Zeppelin, the story is told in dance through the mood and words of each song, as well as through the use of dramatic images projected on large video screens.

According to Richard Abowitz at the Las Vegas Weekly: “The show is among the most adventurous and exciting I’ve ever seen on the strip..."

THE FASHIONISTAS is a gender-blending erotic extravaganza never before seen on the Las Vegas Strip.  With staging techniques critics call "muscular and aggressive," Stagliano uses Aerialists to come down from over heads and platforms erected behind the audience to create an environment that makes the entire theater feel like a stage.

The costumes designs, ranging from simplistic to stunning, are all memorable. And the large cast and high production values found in such an intimate setting enhance the visceral power of the show.

Stagliano goes the extra steps to add impressive little touches that make a big difference, including having a live drummer accentuate the hard driving sound track. The result is a show that's more erotic than any other show on the strip; it is both humorous and sly without being campy or cheesy.

The casting of THE FASHIONISTAS was "diverse and far-reaching" according to Stagliano, leading critics rave, "(this is) a group that is as sexy and as skilled at dancing as any cast on the Strip."

And The Review-Journal’s Mike Weatherford again notes: “A pornographer has just embarrassed a lot of people. Adult video mogul, John Stagliano has shown the producers of “Skintight,” “Midnight Fantasy,” “Bite”, and even “Zumanity” what a real Las Vegas show can be.”

THE FASHIONISTAS perform on “the Strip” at Krave Nightclub, Las Vegas Blvd. and Harmon Ave. (adjacent to the Aladdin Hotel) six nights a week: Monday – Saturday. Produced and directed by John Stagliano, this gender-bending erotic extravaganza pushes the envelope of human form, fashion and spectacle in high style.
