Haider Ackermann's Fall 2019 collection instills the growing trend into 2019, that being sex and the radiance of eros.  Thankfully Unisex fashion, as a terminology, has collapsed in its  markable idea; it was poorly thought out and sourced as it had virtually no swing within mainstream fashion industry.  There is nothing wrong with utilizing the sexes within their dual aesthetics, however the wonderful aspect of female fashion which can and does wear male fashions very well. Therefor removing the duality, however this is not an expression of unisex styles, it just shows how advanced female stylizations (or wardrobe) can be over a male.  It's the way it is.  Men in fashion should be creative in other ways. 

Ackermann's latest showing evokes the morning after, where your female companion (if you are a heterosexual male or otherwise) have had amazing night of intimacy.  And she ends up wearing your clothes the next day.  How awesome would that be?  I would love to see her in my military, mountaineering and slightly Gothic arrays, wearing my worn out baseball cap as we both go and get a latte together (or beer).  As quoted by Ackerman for his latest collection.  “…it's about borrowing clothes from your love one...It's not Unisex...It's all about borrowing.” 

The tailoring for his Fall 2019 collection is so precise, it is one of the acknowledged trademarks of his signature brand, in being able to discern the shape and cuts from fittings to the runway.  This is consistent within his mastery as a designer.  The stalwart styles of military inspired dress pants (Lampasse stripes) through to the long overcoats. Extending his blazer looks, reworked and shaped in draped causal ways, despite the formalities of dress, the collection has a casual feel.  Effortlessness and comfortable, relaxed and settled in after an evening tryst.  Once again, as noted from previous Ackermann shows is his use of fine wools, unique pattern work, subtle accessories mixed in with some of the regalia – working from the template of males styles, imprinting them onto the female models. The color palette, is mostly black, and white overlaid with red and browns. With neutral grays as a conjoining fixture for Haider Ackermann's Fall's 2019 collection.
