Haider Ackermann

Colombian born designer Haider Ackermann is a favourite of fine at he moment. After graduating from the Antwerp Fashion Academy of Fine Arts in Belgium, Ackermann started his self named label in 2001. Since then Ackermann has slowly been building his name and reputation as a drape artist and a master of leather. His drape is extraordinary because it's structured so a lot of his work is very edgy but beautifully fluid. I especially love the way the collars loop and fold and seem to continue forever. They also make your eye travel around the whole garment and take everything in. After looking at Ackermann collection I was invigorated to look back at the collars in my collection and see if they could be pushed further.
