Toronto Alternative Arts & Fashion Week: Heidi Ackerman RAGE April 23, 2010
April 23rd, 2010 | posted by Rachel S | Posted in T.O Designers , [FAT] Alt Fashion
construct(this) is Heidi Ackermanʼs third collection presented at Alternative Arts and Fashion Week. This Spring/Summer 2010 collection explores and expands upon Heidiʼs obsession with architecture, futurism and abstraction.
Pulling inspiration from the Russian avant garde movements of the early 20th century construct(this) combines contradictory materials and patterns to create controlled chaos on the body. Experimentation with vegetable tanned leather, thin curved metal and deconstructed knits will create a provocative tension for the wearer and observer.
I won’t be attending the third nite of [FAT] Friday, April 23, 2010 and will be missing some amazing fashion shows including:
David Wigley
Youth.InAsia by Joshua Shier
Heidi Ackerman
Romandin by Cristina Sabaiduc
Anna Smutny will be doing a performance piece; DJ Discrete will make a rare appearance; and Christabel will be performing!
Liberty Village, 1 Pardee Ave. 6 p.m. to 1 p.m. Licensed! $30 at the door
