Review: In ‘Espejos: Clean,’ the performances gleam - The Washington Post “Almost from the moment Sarah first appears, an unsteady figure in a bathing suit and beach robe, orange cocktail in hand, we sense her neediness and self-disgust, but also her rebellious wit. (Christopher Vergara designed the spot-on costumes.)” Read more, HERE.

Review: ESPEJOS: CLEAN at Studio Theatre - Broadway World “Despite her experience as a model, acting may be her strong suit. Not many can tear up on demand as she does freely more than once. (The bleeding, band-aids and scarring of her knee are all thanks to the detail-oriented costume designer Christopher Vergara, I’m supposing).” Read more, HERE.

Review: UMich SMTD’s production of ‘Everybody,’ about life and death - The Michigan Daily “Costumes by Christopher Vergara were also gorgeous. Particularly striking were Death’s suit with skeleton-like accents, Love’s Aphrodite-esque dress with beautiful anatomical heart detailing and matching “EB” blazer and necklace for Kinship and Cousin, respectively. These costumes were just symbolic enough to indicate the tropes of each character and their concept while maintaining the characters’ believability.” Read more, HERE.

Review: Revival of 'Anna in the Tropics' Brings Miami Pulitzer Winner's Play To Vibrant Life - Artburst “Christopher Vergara mainly opts for a sepia-toned palette in his lovely-to-look-at collection of period costumes.  The most striking exception is the black ball gown worn by Marela, chosen by her father to be the face of the company’s new cigar. The dress helps transform Ferro’s petite Marela from energetic girl to the embodiment of Tolstoy’s tragic beauty.” Read more, HERE.
