uber rock. dark grunge. elmer ave’s fall collection was a testament of london’s modern rock & roll flair and the influence of johnny depp’s pirates of the caribbean filmographies. dubbed as “a night of tragic emotions” and melodies by the devil’s orchestra, the creative collaboration of jonny day, collin pulsipher, ward robinson and sean murphy set out an attack on the runway seas.

” gothic magnetism and emo characterizations splurged an array of emotions like pain with a broken heart symbol and betrayal with a dagger. “

the line was infused with a twisted rock & roll rebel attitude. signature stripe painted tuxedo jackets. velvet blazers. custom vintage leather jackets. cross designed vests. 70s retro era van art. new age trench coats. stylized monogram crest. funky crosshatches.
gothic magnetism and emo characterizations splurged an array of emotions like pain with a broken heart symbol and betrayal with a dagger. faces gleam with gloom. captain jack sparrow’s wit and treachery enveloped the style of the collection with accessories and adornments of eyeliners, chains, distressed hairdos, beards, mustaches, bullet belts, skulls and crossbones.
elmer ave’s runway show was an emotionally charged escapade strutting through the dark edgy side.
