Introducing Frost Eyewear Exclusively at Erker's

The Designs of Frost are shaped by the spirit of the times. They are the optimistic fulfillment of the desire for modern extravagance. Frost Glasses are not an unnoticed accessory, but rather a challenge which accompanies the wearer. Although Frost possess a trademark, you will not find it being directly used by Frost since the glasses come in many different shapes. The sensational effect of each model means more to Frost than an obvious trademark. Marion Frost is the driving force behing the company however you would hardly believe it when lookin at the complete collection. The diversity of the shapes of the models is a true reflection of the diversity of the Frost customers. The range of glasses offers something for everyone with a taste for the unusual. Each Frost frame represents both a new challenge and a continuation of the success of the previous models. Innovative glasses interest Frost more than just experimenting with shapes. Marion Frost is a true stylist among the designers of glasses of her trade. Her designs combine precision and style with static and dynamic elements. They are a carefully controlled interplay of curves and straight lines, often incorporating the conscious aura of an experimental prototype and fuctional dignity . Marion Frost is constantly moving between being inspired by the past and the future on a quickly changing market. From tradition to innovation and from classic designs to quickly changing trends she is at least one side-piece ahead of the others.

Deborah Messing in the hit new series SMASH wearing Barton Perreira

Deborah Messing seen in NBC's newest show is wearing Lucky by Barton Perreira.


About the Show



Smash" is a musical drama that celebrates the beauty and heartbreak of the Broadway theater as it follows a cross section of dreamers and schemers who all have one common desire - to be a "Smash." The series centers on a desire to create a Broadway musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe - written by the successful songwriting duo of Tom (Tony Award nominee Christian Borle, "Legally Blonde: The Musical") and Julia (Emmy Award winner Debra Messing, "Will & Grace"). Julia recently began the process of adopting a child with her husband Frank (Tony Award nominee Brian d'Arcy James, "Shrek the Musical") of many years, but her focus is torn when she has the opportunity to write another Broadway hit. A rivalry soon forms for the lead role between a youthful, inexperienced Midwestern beauty Karen (Katharine McPhee, "American Idol") - who is trying to find fame in the big city against all odds - and stage veteran Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty, "9 to 5: The Musical"), who's determined to leave the chorus line and finally get her big break. A tenacious producer Eileen (Oscar winner, Anjelica Huston, "Prizzi's Honor") discovers the "Marilyn" project and jumps on board with a brilliant director, Derek (Jack Davenport, "Pirates of the Caribbean" films) - whose talent is matched by his cunning and egocentric amorality. Jaime Cepero ("Porgy and Bess") stars as Ellis, and Raza Jaffrey ("Sex and the City 2," "MI-5") stars as Dev.




The series stemmed from an idea of executive producer and multiple Emmy and Oscar winner Steven Spielberg ("ER," "Schindler's List"). The pilot was written by creator/executive producer and acclaimed playwright/screenwriter Theresa Rebeck ("Mauritius," "NYPD Blue"). David Marshall Grant ("Brothers and Sisters"), Craig Zadan and Neil Meron (Oscar-winning "Chicago," "Hairspray") and Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey ("United States of Tara," "The Borgias") also serve as executive producers. Original songs are written by Tony and Grammy Award winners Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman ("Hairspray," "Catch Me If You Can"), who serve as executive producers as well.





"Smash" is a production of Universal Television in association with DreamWorks Television and Madwoman in the Attic. The pilot was directed by Tony Award winner Michael Mayer ("Spring Awakening," "American Idiot").


Barton Perreira has teamed up with the best name in eyewear in St. Louis to be its exclusive distributor of their amazing collection. Come see the entire line at Erker's Fine Eyewear in Ladue or Downtown. Find us online at www.erkers.com

Tag Heuer at Erker's Fine Eyewear

Introducing TAG Heuer Eyewear at Erker's in St. Louis. TAG Heuer has successfully embraced a number of contrastic elements; heritage and innovation; prestige and and perfomance; sports and glamour. Today TAG Heuer is one of the largest luxury brands, always pushing the boundaries of technology with the creativity of the staff, the range of their expertise, and depth of their experience.




TAG Heuer uses only the highest quality materials selected according to the strictest criteria. This rigorous selection process guarantees the robustness and reliability of each frame. The avante garde materials used in TAG Heuer glasses provide unmatched ergonomics and comfort.




316L + Stainless Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, to which mainly chrome is added to make the alloy oxidation-resistant. Stronger than ordinary steel and almost completely scratchproof, 316L+stainless steel is widely used in haute horlogerie. For these reasons, TAG Heuer Eyewear is using it more and more ofter, especially for screws.



MIM stainless Steel (Metallic Injection Molding) is a manufacturing process that involves using stainless steel powders mixed finely with polymer binders to develop complex shapes. Nowadays, sectors such as medical, aerospace or automotive manufacturing use this process frequently.



PVD Coating (Physical Vapor Deposition) involves condensing a metallic vapor in a partial vacuum. Made primarily from titanium carbide, this layered treatment optimizes the life of a finish by reinforcing its surface hardness and resistance to corrosion and scratches.



B-Titanium is an avante-garde metal with unique qualitie. It is biocompatible and hypoallergenic containing no nickel. It is twice as light as stainless steel and corrosion-resistant. It possesses exceptional mechanical properties: resistance and ductile strength (the capacity of a material to be bent without breaking). It is unrivalled qualities ensure its longevity.



Carbon is a material that is generally used in the aeronautical and Formula 1 industries. Carbon is inalterable and therefore exceptionally resistant to corrosion. This high performance fiber is also extremely light (three times lighter than titanium) making it possible to manufacture frames that weigh only a few grams. Finally, it has excellant mechanical properties: solidity, flexibility and responsiveness that withstand the test of time.




Elastomer offers excellent mechanical resistance to wear and water in addition to offering natural elasticity that ensures optimal comfort. thanks to many tests carried out by its Quality Department, TAG Heuer eyewear has slected an ultra resistant and hypoallergenic elastomer for its frames, which is also pleasant to touch.




Tag Heuer creates the finest materials found in Eyewear and it is no surprise you can find this incredible eyewear at Erker's in St. Louis. Pure Luxury found at Erker's for 132 years.
