I think these clothes/accessories are incredible! I haven't known the designer before so I'm glad to see this creative collection.
I love the use of colours(it's like a shadow-light play,which turned out great)
,made the effect more dramatic.
Secondly,the playfulness of the different materials are breathtaking.I have afeeling like I am not watching a beautiful fashion show but masterpieces of a very talented artist in an exhibition:) I would totally wear them!

I saw the runway video on Style.com, and I have to say, Scott, you did Mr. Ackermann's collection justice with your photographs. Please forgive me if I sound patronizing, which I'm not. The lighting in the video was less than desirable making the collection look a little too dark and washed out. Now I realized that the color, the cut, and the silhouette of the every piece, including the sartorial detailing and accessories are beautiful and quite amazing. I kept wondering why the fashionistas kept saying that they were speechless and in tears after the show. Now I can see why. Thank you.

Oh Haider Ackermann has been one of my favorite designers for a while now. This collection was ravishing! I don't know how he drapes clothes the way he does; all I know is they are spectacular!

I have nothing against him and he *is* a good designer, but I find him to be a little overrated right now, especially with all this Dior gossip.

I saw these runway photos and had one thought: not a single one of these outfits is wearable.
They are creative, and I like the dark colors, but the flourishes are there seemingly to get my attention rather than to serve the clothing or the wearer.
I especially don't like the long outfits with holes cut into them and fear for a woman tripping in them.

the majority of catwalk pictures are ghastly – studiedly miserable and emaciated models wearing preposterous concoctions most of which will never be seen again…in sharp contrast to your street shots, which show largely happy people who appear to know how to eat, wearing clothes they have chosen and like to wear…

I've just looked at the collection and I don't know. Its a bit star trek. I can picture the jabberwocks and Obe Wan Kenobe getting around in this stuff on badly-animated foreign planets. Why does "good" fashion design have to amount to costumes? Ackerman is obviously prodigiously talented, but is fashion "better" if its wearable, or if its wearable art?
