Haider Ackermann's SS'12 collection was filled with luxe garments. The looks had a somewhat Oriental feel, referenced in the sheen of the fabric and the occasional patterns. Though there were many neutral ensembles in the collection, color played a huge role.
The silhouettes in this collection were masterfully designed. Suits in grape purple and raspberry hues were tailored beautifully and it will be interesting to see how these outfits are incorporated into the working world - or elsewhere. Sensuous draping was wonderfully done, adding grace and femininity to more structured looks. Color blocking was well done here: the aforementioned purple suit was paired with blue shoes and my favorite look of the collection was an aqua top matched with bright green pants and royal purple shoes.
Overall, a spectacular collection that felt fresh and innovative. I loved each and every design, even the ones lacking in the color department!
