Haider Ackermann paid tribute to the female form with a collection stepped in androgyny for his label’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection. A story of contradictions, the silhouettes are at once sleek with their modern cuts and relaxed shapes yet dreamy in airy chiffons and silks worn as veils, skirts or tops. Long jackets and baggy trousers speak to mannish style while the low-cut tops and slinky metallic dresses embrace a more feminine form. The play on hard and soft style make the Ackermann woman’s upcoming spring a beautiful contradiction.

Donatella Versace was in a rock'n'roll mood for Versace’s Spring/Summer 2014 show. The catwalk opened with a selection of denim looks ranging from clingy skirts to sculpted jackets. Then the Versace woman embraced the sweet side of spring with pleated dresses in pastel hues of lavender, yellow and sky blue. The looks still had a rock edge though; paired with cropped moto jackets and zipper details. Sexy gowns featuring high slits and skin-baring cutouts closed the show in feminine sheer and lace.

Marc by Marc Jacobs offers a new take on the classics for the brand’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection. The classic suit is given a slouchy shape in satin for a pajama-inspired look while white t-shirts worn underneath are kept simple and uncomplicated. Jacobs also got sporty with baseball jackets and a golf-inspired look of trousers and mens tees with color-blocking in satin. Rounding out the collection’s relaxed shapes are the final looks featuring satin dresses or jumpsuits adorned with sparkling star shapes.

With Pharoahe Monch booming on the speakers, it was a trip back to the 90s tomboy for Alexander Wang. Menswear was the jumping-off point for the collection, with classic suiting being used for everything from spaghetti-strapped slip dresses to the waistbands of leather shorts. Men’s pajamas popped up in sexy shorts looks with plenty of stomach exposed. There were old-school hip-hop references sprinkled into the collection. Babydoll dresses splashed with the designer’s name mingled with leather overall dresses, while workwear made an appearance in black shorts suits with white stitching. The shoes were a new silhouette for Alexander Wang, with a heavy platform and chunky heel all, in a high-sheen patent that almost looked like gleaming rubber at a distance. His bags were on full display with sleek duffels and oversize clutches standing out in shades of maroon and baby pink.
