Hello, Tailor

The big difference between this show and Ackermann’s previous work is the lack of colour. Up until now he’s worked mostly in jewel tones, using deep, iridescent purples and greens to create a signature look inspired by Victorian men’s pajamas. This time round everything is strictly monochrome, but since Ackermann is a genius when it comes to fabric choice, the clothes have retained that subtle glow. — Hello, Tailor: Haider Ackermann, Spring 2013.

Haider Ackermann is a ridiculously luxurious brand, but there’s always something very “street-style” about his clothes. Maybe it’s because aside from the suits, his clothes always seem very customisable, fitted out with multiple layers of scarves and belts to be tied up or left hanging loose as the wearer wishes. — Hello, Tailor: Haider Ackermann, Spring 2013.

Haider Ackermann is my fave and Tilda Swinton’s fave, which means two things: 1) that he’s been judged to be Objectively Awesome by a panel of experts, and 2) that Tilda Swinton and I are destined to be BFFs.  — Hello, Tailor: Haider Ackermann, Spring 2013.
