HAIDER ACKERMANN @ SS2013 Collection

Haider Ackermann SS2013 collection comes from the inspiration of the traditional Japanese dressing. The <Colours & Materials> is a palette of deep coffee, black, ivory, white and selected shades of navy and dark blues. The prints are mosaics of graphic and geometric patterns, polka dots, interlocking squares combined with stripes in a stricter palette of two colors that enhance graphic proportions. 
The materials are a combination of different structures; mélange linen’s, papery black silk, graphic jacquard fabrics, transparent printed silk chiffon and delicate laces, combined with washed leather.
The <Silhouettes> is the relative simplicity in different elements of weights and patterns together makes a distinctive silhouette: sculptural tailored jackets, flowing oversized coats, drop-crotch trousers, touches of Oriental-influenced draping and men’s tailoring.
Fragile, camisole dresses with polka dot printed layers of chiffon were draped over slim polka dot trousers. A structured fitted jacket, vertically striped, underneath a draped blouse and full trousers in two different mosaics of graphic patterns. 
A streamlined suit with strong shoulders, clasped by a thick leather cummerbund above the waist, and collars bunched into stiff folds that create sculptural proportion.
