Does the Haider Ackermann collection "suit" you?

Paris Fashion Week Spring/ Summer 2013.  After analyzing various designers, the Haider Ackermann Spring/ Summer 2013 RTW collection stood out to me.  The theme was a dark, cold feel.  The indigo colored lipstick added to this vibe.  Black, navy, grey, and a few white looks created the color story.  Furthermore, patterns including polka dots and stripes were visible throughout.  The simplicity of the sleek back hair in a bun and lack of jewelry allowed the audience to focus on Haider Ackermann's designs.

Masculine vs. Feminine:  Haider Ackermann turned a masculine look into a stunning, feminine style.  These suits were tailored with great class and consisted of strong shoulders.  The trouser pants were either pleated in the front and ended at the ankle, or were a loose fit that covered the heel.  The first look below added a obi belt to embrace the waistline.  Vogue.co.uk states that Pucci and Etro also added the obi belt to their collections at Paris Fashion Week.  The third look visualizes layering under the suit jacket along with the use of mixed patterns.  This trend of a masculine look is on its way this Spring season!

Inspired Designs:  Where have you saw this pattern before?  Inspiration for patterns and designs can come from anywhere.  This diamond pattern is noticeable on metal fences throughout our everyday lives.  Take a look around you and you too can discover how designers interpret their surroundings into new creations.  This beautiful, flowy dress from Haider Ackermann's collection was only one that I selected.  Some dresses were even added with trousers for a trendy look!  Belting was incorporated in various ways comparable to the image below.  I truly appreciated the entire collection, all the way from the runway theme to Haider Ackermann's style!  Check out the rest!

How to wear this trend: Amanda Seyfried was spotted at Paris Fashion Week Spring/ Summer 2013 wearing a bold red suit herself!  Add your own style to this look and bring in the femininity with color.  The suit should not just be in your boyfriend's closet, but try one out yourself!
