It was a great show. Interesting. Something I have never seen before. I liked the aerials hanging onto sheets from the ceiling, nice. And it was a nice story. I was entertained.

I was not expecting this type of entertainment at all. It was quite adult, but tasteful and interesting. I enjoyed the singing, acting, costums and the airial acts. We had the best seat of all. Great service for such a non-imposing looking venue. I only wish I had a DVD.

The dancing was absolutely incredible and visually stunning! The overall storyline wasn't very clear, however, we stopped trying to understand the story, and just enjoyed the dance abilities and the vignette stories, and enjoyed it overall!

Not classy. Very cheesy and cheap performers. The theater is run down and sandwiched between Fatburger and Walgreens, the worst part of the strip. They did not allow us to take our own unopened water bottles inside, that is ridiculous as it is extremely hot even at 9pm, temperature hovering around 97-98 degrees on the strip. Not a very good show. I would call it waste of your money. Hardly any of the audience would clap after each of the performance. They had one of their own people sit at the back and yell: Yeah!!! Wow!!! and the only person clap. Do not put your money on this. You are sure to regret it.

This was an Adult event - with things for all types of people, except those who do not like men-men, female-female, etc. In fact two people who were attending the event got so insenced that they got up and left when a male cast member (wearing next to nothing) got on his knees in front of them. Their loss - great show, great dancing, great everything.

It was an entertaining performance, however I did not like the plot of the story too much. If you like to see beautiful movements and dance with a very upbeat attitude, this may be for you.

This was BY FAR the WORST SHOW I have EVER seen!!! I'm still wondering what was the worst part: the scenes, costumes, correography, or music!! UGH!!!
SAVE YOUR MONEY!
FYI: the scheme of this is gay, sadistic, and bondage.....ALL portrayed in cheap, meaningless sets.

We thought this would be an over the top, ironic, tongue in cheek parody of the movie "Showgirls." Now, that would've been great! Well, "Fashionistas" is definitely over the top. However, it also took itself VERY seriously. The dancing is okay - you can tell which dancers had formal training from those who learned to dance with a pole. The choreography is uninspired, which leaves the dancers with actual training bored to tears. There was a huge technical gaff when they went into the foot fetish sequence. So, we looked at a closed curtain for over 5 minutes. The drinks were ridiculous ($10 for a rum and coke?!) The house was small and continued to get smaller through the course of the show. There wasn't anything remotely erotic about this "erotic musical, told thru dance," unless you're a straight, middle aged male virgin. Most of the bodies are incredible - particularly the men. Especially the male dancer who played the fashion designer, Antonio. The costumes look as if they were purchased at the Erogenous Zone and from the pages of an old International Male catalogue. Ultimately, I felt sad. Sad for some of the performers who are clearly talented. I wondered how they ended up in a third rate Vegas show...?

A couple of the vignets were fun especially the aerialists. But the rest wasn't that great. No continuity. Better off seeing another show when in Vegas.

It was very cheesy. I thought it would be more exotic. It has a few good performers but most of them were stiff dancers.

Firstly the venue and the seeting are strange this is not a full time theater it is a night club where they put out chairs for the production.
It's a love story between a designer and a model with an afair of a nother model it was good and clever in parts btu to weird to strange too off the wall I went with my mum and dad and sister and husband it was deffinatly not a family affair.
very avand guard and I like avent guard but this was crazy

More Details
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 and is the most critically acclaimed erotic show in Las Vegas history! 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.” Fashionistas” also was picked by the staff of the Review Journal as having the Best Choreography of any Vegas show.
The Fashionistas is an erotic extravaganza never before seen on the Las Vegas Strip and is the preferred show choice for couples. 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.
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.
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.
