Well, it’s yet another brilliant offering from Mr. Ackermann this season. His clothes are always so sexy to me and this season is no exception. Not only is the color palette deep and gorgeous, it compliments his work so well; the rich tones vamp up the luxe factor a great deal. The way he does sexy is so decadent and comfortable in your own skin type of sexy – without venturing into vulgar or tacky territory.
The Ackermann girl is a strong one, and the medieval theme and detailing here only furthers that vibe. Also the juxtaposition of delicately draped pieces paired with such a ‘tough’ embellishment is really lovely. He is one of the best at gathering and draping but I am loving his progression… he still includes all the things we love him for but it’s obvious that he’s leveling up.
The footwear, like many other shows (not that I’m complaining!), consists of super serious over the knee boots, as well as some other various boots. I am obsessed with how he styles his shows… it’s so clean, so modest and just perfect looking. The hair slicked back and the lack of make up is what I adore because it really drives the point home that, as far as he is concerned, sexy is not synonymous with the words overdone or trashy. I love that, because as far as I am concerned (always have been and always will be)… modesty is beauty.
I can’t stop without mentioning his jackets, though. There is just something about the way he cuts them and the way they fit is total perfection. The materials he uses are always really good, the construction is of course out of this world, but it’s always the details that really seal the deal… just great.
