Haider Ackermann showed a very sexy spring collection yesterday.
There’s been a noticeable lack of celeb presence in Paris, aside from Dior, and in a stranger moment of front row “glamour”, Michael Pitt, of both The Dreamers and Dawson’s Creek, attended Ackerman’s show and managed to look thoroughly bored with the array of model bottoms.
We, however, were fascinated. First, you know how we love Tanya D. Second, the cut-out, sheer, draped dresses and mini-suits made you wish it was ok to show up to work half-dressed. Like Stella, Ackermann showed what looked like a lawyer’s suit on top and a bathing suit on the bottom.
If only corporate dress codes weren’t so strict about the whole pants thing.
Meanwhile, the shoes were phenomenal – wooden soled booties with overlapping suede that laced up the leg. Models had to be strapped in hours before the show started.
But at least no one fell.
